Fluorosilicic Acid

The City of Newport News is seeking bids from qualified firms to furnish Fluorosilicic Acid to the City's Waterworks Department on an 'as needed' basis. The contract will be for a term of one year with the option to renew for four additional one-year periods. The City requires the contractor to provide bulk Fluorosilicic Acid for two water treatment plants, with orders/deliveries made in a 4,000-gallon tank.
