AN ORDINANCE ACCEPTING AND AUTHORIZING THE EXECUTION OF AN ADDITIONAL TWO-YEAR EXTENSION TO PROPOSAL NO. UE18-12 WITH OZINGA CEMENT, INC. FOR PURCHASE, REMOVAL, AND BENEFICIAL USE OF FLY ASH FROM DALLMAN 4 FOR THE OFFICE OF PUBLIC UTILITIES
Ordinance No. 279-07-18 approved and authorized the execution of Proposal No. UE18-12 with Ozinga Cement, Inc. (“Ozinga”) for the purchase, removal, and beneficial use of fly ash from Dallman Unit 4 for a three-year term. Ozinga utilizes this fly ash in its concrete applications. Ordinance No. 273-07-21 authorized a two-year extension of Proposal No. UE18-12 (-$320,000.00). Ordinance No. 21005-23 authorized another two-year extension (-$320,000.00).The current extension contract is nearing expiration. Ozinga has offered a letter of extension for an additional two years under the same terms and conditions of the current agreement and continues to use the third-year pricing of $8.00 per ton. Ozinga has performed well and reliably over the past seven years. Additionally, Ozinga has installed a chemical feed system to treat the Unit 4 Fly Ash that would be considered out of specifications for use in cement and ready mix. The system would treat the fly ash that does not meet the current specifications. This would allow the Utility to sell more tons by using the Ozinga chemical feed system than otherwise would by selling to a customer without the system. Utility personnel have surveyed the market and found no other customers that can meet the $8.00 per ton for cement quality ash. Therefore, it would be in the best interest of the City of Springfield, Office of Public Utilities, to extend said contract vs. doing another request for proposals at this time.
Ozinga is not a local vendor.

This Ordinance authorizes and approves an Intergovernmental Cooperation Agreement with the Sangamon County Soil and Water Conservation District ("SCSWCD") in an amount not to exceed $282,000.00. This Intergovernmental Cooperation Agreement implements the agricultural conservation practice called "wetlands" in the Lake Springfield watershed in order to treat tile water runoff and reduce sediment to streams and Lake Springfield thereby safeguarding drinking water and lowering the cost of water treatment.
SCSWCD will manage the installation of and disbursal of funds for the creation of two (2) wetlands in the Lake Springfield Watershed under the United States Department of Agriculture-Natural Resources Conservation Service (USDA-NRCS) for the 2021 Lake Springfield Source Water Protection Project, part of the Regional Conservation Partnership Program (“RCPP”) and known as the "Lake Springfield RCPP" or “Project 1933”. These wetlands are designed and constructed to remove excess nutrients, suspend sediment, and organic chemicals (e.g., pesticides, and herbicides). As recognized by the USDA-NRCS”, it is anticipated that the wetlands will, on average, annually reduce nitrate-nitrogen by 50%, phosphorus up to 30%, and suspended sediment up to 90%. Wetlands are a long-life conservation practice capable of performing nitrate-nitrogen removal from runoff for 30-plus years, they provide important secondary benefits of wildlife and pollinator habitat and are planted with native species. The Office of Public Utilities is requesting a supplemental appropriation in the amount of $100,000.00 from unappropriated water fund balance to help fund this project.
