Sodium Hydroxide

The estimated annual dry weight equivalent of sodium hydroxide used at LCWTP is 1,350,000 pounds (lbs.). The estimated annual dry weight equivalent of sodium hydroxide used at POMWTP is 80,000 lbs. The District is a wholesale provider of treated water to Salt Lake City Public Utilities Department, Sandy City Public Utilities Department, and others. The District owns and operates two (2) water treatment plants, the Little Cottonwood Water Treatment Plant (LCWTP) and the Point of the Mountain Water Treatment Plant (POMWTP), (collectively called the Treatment Plants). The Treatment Plants have full conventional treatment. Sodium hydroxide is used primarily for pH adjustment at the LCWTP. It may be used at the POMWTP in the future. The estimated annual dry weight equivalent of sodium hydroxide used at LCWTP is 1,350,000 pounds (lbs.). The estimated annual dry weight equivalent of sodium hydroxide used at POMWTP is 80,000 lbs. Numbers were calculated using a 50 percent (%) solution as the reference solution. Actual quantities will vary. Forces of nature, raw water quality, and other factors will determine the amount of sodium hydroxide required. For a more complete description of product and/or service requirements refer to Exhibit A of the attached Sample Agreement. Because of the volatility in pricing for raw materials and other factors, contracts will be limited to a one-year term. Prices are to remain fixed for such term.
