Background:
To help with the growing needs of Broken Arrow, the utilities department request to add two Hydro Vacuum Excavators to the fleet of equipment. Both units are compact and ideal for micro trenching, slot trenching, and potholing. Hydro Vacuum Excavators use a combination of high-pressure water and powerful vacuum systems to precisely excavate soil around buried utilities. This reduces the risk of damaging these utilities, minimizing service disruptions, and ensuring the safety of both workers and the public.
Ditch Witch provided the proposal utilizing Sourcewell Cooperative Purchasing contract (formerly NJPA) membership number 67325.
Cost: $193,600
