AN ORDINANCE AUTHORIZING ADDITIONAL FUNDING FOR THE DALLMAN UNIT 4 POWER PLANT HYDROGEN SUPPLY CONTRACT, FOR THE OFFICE OF PUBLIC UTILITIES FOR A TOTAL OF $837,722.00
This ordinance is to authorize a funding increase for the Dallman Unit 4 Power Plant Low Pressure Hydrogen Dock and Hydrogen Supply contract with Airgas USA, LLC.
