Work covers hydrogen sulfide (H2S) monitoring and treatment at four wastewater collection system segments (M00292, M00253, M00280, and M00338A) and at the Village Creek Water Reclamation Facility in Arlington. The vendor must supply all labor, chemicals, equipment, and transportation. It must also provide cellular-based remote telemetry with real-time monitoring, weekly dissolved and atmospheric H2S data collection, quarterly performance reporting, and emergency response with at least two local technicians available within 60 minutes of each site. Program targets are a vapor H2S daily average of 25 ppm and dissolved sulfide no greater than 0.5 mg/L, measured against pre-treatment baselines. Minimum qualifications include five years of similar experience.

Proposals will be evaluated on a best-value basis across six factors: Cost (15 points), Small Business Participation (20 points, scored from 0 points at 0 percent to 20 points at 30 percent or more), Ability to Meet City Needs (15 points), Experience and Qualifications (15 points), Delivery and Support (20 points), and Treatment Optimization and Performance Monitoring (15 points).
