BACKGROUND (Why is this Action Necessary, and What Action will be accomplished)
body
Background:
The purpose of this purchase is to secure a firm price for the 2nd set wastewater membrane replacement and LEAPmbr aeration upgrade at the Rotonda Water Reclamation Facility.
This change order is for the additional cost of the tariff associated with this purchase. The ZeeWeed manufacturer of the membrane is based in Hungary and this purchase is subject to the additional tariff that went into effect on July 31, 2025. The County will choose the less expensive option in which Veolia manages the import. In this case the County will be charged a flat fee of 11.5% of the membrane value imported to the US, totaling $88,627. The Bills of Lading will be generated just prior to shipping and the vendor will send them to the County once they are received.
Therefore, request approval of Change Order #1 to Contract #25-265, Rotonda Water Reclamation Facility - 2nd Set Membrane Replacement as awarded to Veolia (ZENON Environmental Corporation) of Trevose, Pennsylvania for an additional amount of $88,627.
Original Amount (Approved by the Board on 3/11/2025): $966,360
