Budget estimate

$5,000 – $50,000

No contract value is disclosed. Based on typical market prices for magnesium‑chloride deicer (~$30‑$40 per 50‑lb bag) and assuming the state may purchase anywhere from a few hundred to several thousand bags, the total contract value could reasonably range from roughly $5,000 for a modest order up to $50,000 for a larger bulk procurement. Factors influencing the estimate include the exact quantity ordered, any volume discounts, delivery logistics, and whether the supplier provides additional services such as labeling or packaging.
