Approval of and authorization to execute a Professional Consultant Agreement with Doane and Hartwig Water Systems Inc. doing business as Big Wave Water Technologies Inc. for Chloramine Booster Pilot (Project No. 2554780)

Background:
The Battle Creek Water Storage Tank is a 5 MG tank that was built in 2000. Currently, there is not enough demand on the tank and lack of turnover in a water storage tank can lead to the residual chlorine in the water dropping below the minimum that is required to be in the distribution system. Starting June 8, 2025, BAMA performed a 6-month pilot study with Big Wave Water Technologies Inc. to determine if boosting the chloramine levels in the tank will keep the residuals at an acceptable level long enough for the tank to turnover the water. The pilot study was overall a success, however, a second pilot study is recommended by staff and approved by ODEQ due to the temperatures of summer 2025 not being as hot as previous summers experienced by Broken Arrow. This pilot study is for a 6-month rental of a trailer, a Chloramine Boosting System (CBS), related equipment, and related support services by Big Wave Water Technologies Inc. The CBS is an automated disinfectant system that gives municipal operators the capability to set and control chlorine residual levels in potable water storage tanks.
The Engineering and Construction Department and the Utilities Department negotiated a Professional Consultant Agreement with Big Wave to provide a 6-month rental of a trailer, a Chloramine Boosting System (CBS), related equipment, and related support services. The negotiated amount is $42,000.00.
