This document is Addendum #1 for RFP-25-05, issued by the City of DeLand Finance Department for Backflow Device Testing, Certifications and Repair Services. The addendum clarifies a specific question regarding contractor licensing, specifically addressing whether an underground contractor's license with a Florida Water and Pollution Control Operators Association (FWPCOA) tester and repair backflow certification is sufficient for backflow testing. The document confirms that while the FWPCOA certification allows contractors to test backflows, it does not permit testing of firelines. The proposal opening date remains unchanged, scheduled for April 10, 2025, at 1:00 P.M., and all other terms and conditions of the original request for proposal remain in effect.

The addendum serves as a supplemental communication to prospective contractors, providing critical clarification on licensing requirements without altering the fundamental parameters of the original solicitation. The document is signed by Corey McMillen, the Purchasing Manager, and maintains the standard format of an official municipal procurement communication, emphasizing the importance of contractors acknowledging receipt of this addendum with their submission.
