The pool was established on October 3, 2023, through Resolution No. R-871-23 and modified through Resolution No. R-556-25, for a five-year term, currently valued at $6,017,000. The pool expires on November 30, 2028. The item was forwarded to the Board of County Commissioners with a favorable recommendation by the Infrastructure, Innovation & Technology Committee on 7/15/2026. Agenda date is 9/1/2026. Any contract award under the pool exceeding $5,000,000.00 is subject to ratification by the Board. The impact is countywide. The additional expenditure authority is specifically for WASD, the largest user of the pool. The request is necessary due to higher than anticipated utilization, including a temporary dewatering system at the North District Wastewater Treatment Plant (NDWWTP) costing over $2 million, and the cleaning of 10 contact basins at the Alexander Orr, Hialeah, and Preston Water Treatment Plants. Prequalified vendors listed include Envirowaste Services Group, Inc., Flotech Environmental, LLC (SBE), Merrell Bros., Inc., Synagro South, LLC, and U.S. Submergent Technologies, LLC. Due diligence noted litigation resolved through a settlement agreement between the County and Synagro South, LLC via Resolution No. R-769-23.
