Summary

This document is an Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Hazard Communication Standard reference guide attached to the City of Tampa's Invitation to Bid for Anhydrous Ammonia procurement for the David L Tippin Water Treatment Facility. The attachment provides the standardized Safety Data Sheets (SDS) format requirements that all bidders must comply with when submitting chemical hazard documentation. The City is seeking approximately 150 tons of Anhydrous Ammonia annually, with delivery scheduled between 7:00 AM and 3:00 PM on normal working days. The bid opening is scheduled for Friday, November 14, 2025. The initial contract term is one year with two optional one-year renewal periods, plus the City's reserved right to unilaterally extend the contract for up to three additional 30-day periods.

The product must meet 99-100% NH3 purity standards, NSF Standard 60 certification, and approval for potable water treatment use. The estimated contract value is approximately $200,000, with pricing assessed on a per-ton basis. Bidders must demonstrate comprehensive safety practices and compliance with technical specifications, including submission of complete OSHA Hazard Communication Safety Data Sheets covering all 16 sections addressing identification, hazards, composition, first-aid measures, fire-fighting, accidental release, handling and storage, exposure controls, physical and chemical properties, stability and reactivity, toxicological information, ecological impacts, disposal, transport, regulatory compliance, and preparation dates. The City of Tampa requires small local business enterprise (SLBE) participation through mandatory DMI forms and compliance with Ordinance 2008-89, emphasizing diversity management initiatives in addition to product delivery and safety standards.

(TLVs); and any other exposure limit used or recommended by the chemical manufacturer, importer, or employer preparing the SDS where available as well as appropriate engineering controls; personal protective equipment (PPE).

Section 9, Physical and chemical properties: Lists the chemical's characteristics.

Section 10, Stability, and reactivity: Lists chemical stability and possibility of hazardous reactions.

Section 11, Toxicological information: Includes routes of exposure; related symptoms, acute and chronic effects; numerical measures of toxicity.

Section 12, Ecological information*: Ecotoxicity (aquatic and terrestrial, where available); Persistence and degradability;

Bioaccumulative potential; Mobility in soil; other adverse effects (such as hazardous to the ozone layer).

Section 13, Disposal considerations*: Description of waste residues and information on their safe handling and methods of disposal, including the disposal of any contaminated packaging.

Section 14, Transport information*: UN number and shipping name; Transport hazard class(es); Packing group, if applicable;
