A price increase to the Agreement may be considered at renewal time each year thereafter and shall be equal to the lesser of: 1) consumer price index for that year, or 2) 5%. And at no time can the total increase be greater than 25% of the original unit price. CONSUMER PRICE INDEX (CPI): Price adjustments will be made in accordance with the percentage change in the U.S. Department of Labor Consumer Price Index for all Urban Consumers (CPI-U), All Items. The Price adjustment rate will be determined by comparing the percentage difference between: (a) the six month average unadjusted CPI using the most recent six months of available data at time of request, and (b) the six month average unadjusted CPI for the same six month period in the preceding year. The percentage difference between (a) and (b) will be the maximum allowable price adjustment rate. Please see the example provided below. No retroactive Agreement price adjustments will be allowed. CPI data can be found at the Bureau of Labor Statistics, Consumer Price Index website here: http://www.bls.gov/cpi/ PROCEDURE TO REQUEST INCREASE: Email the written price increase request with the rate detail comparison and comprehensive calculation to BCRUA's Purchasing Department a minimum of 30 days, but no sooner than 60 days, prior to each renewal period. The detailed written calculation will be verified and confirmed. All written requests for increases must include the BCRUA contract number, solicitation reference information, and contact information for the authorized representative requesting the increase. Price increase requests shall be sent by mail to: BCRUA Attn: Purchasing Department 450 Cypress Creek Rd, Bldg 1 Cedar Park, TX 78613 purchasing@cedarparktexas.gov 450 Cypress Creek Rd. Bldg. 1 • Cedar Park, Texas 78613 • www.cedarparktexas.gov • (512) 401-5000 • Fax: (512) 258-6083 - 16 - Upon receipt of the request, BCRUA reserves the right to either accept the escalation and make changes to the Agreement within 30 days of the request, negotiate with the Vendor, or cancel the Agreement if an agreement cannot be reached on the value of the increase. Example Scenario and Calculation: 1. Agreement renewal date of December 1, 2024. 2. Price increase request due by: November 1, 2024. 3. Current period six month average will be calculated using unadjusted CPI data from May – October 2024. 4. Previous period six month average will be calculated using unadjusted CPI data from May – October 2023. 5. Current period six month average = 314.758 6. Previous period six month average = 306.236 7. Calculate % difference: (314.758 - 306.236) / 306.236 x 100 = 2.782 8. Max allowable price increase at renewal is 2.8% CONTRACT TIME: The Bidder agrees, if awarded the Contract, to commence work within ten (10) calendar days after receipt of a notice of award or in accordance with the schedule provided by owner.

Who is the current supplier and what is the current pricing per gallon for Sodium Hypochlorite 12.5%? And what are the tank sizes? Brenntag. We will not be providing current pricing at this time. Tanks at the water plant vary in size, but the Sodium Hypochlorite tanks are 12,150 gallons. 2. 20% Sodium Permanganate a bulk delivery? We currently receive 20% and our vendor calls it mini bulk. 3. What is the current supplier and price for Liquid Ammonium Sulfate? Brenntag. We won’t be providing current pricing at this time. 4. Who is your current supplier of Sodium Permanganate and pricing? Hawkins. We won’t be providing current pricing at this time. 5. The bid calls out an annual volume of 6,000 gallons for Sodium Permanganate. What is your actual annual volume for that product? Our current tank holds 4,200 gallons and we only use sodium permanganate during the warmer months in small dosage. 6,000 gallons is our estimated amount to be used, it may be less. We typically order 3,000 gallons at a time. 6. When was the last time you bid for water treatment chemicals? Can you provide the previous bid tabulation? We have not previously bid water treatment chemicals.

Carbon dioxide (CO2). Do not use water jet as an extinguisher, as this will spread the fire. Greatly increases the burning rate of combustible materials. Containers may explode when heated. During fire, gases hazardous to health may be formed. Self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing must be worn in case of fire. In case of fire and/or explosion do not breathe fumes. In case of fire: Stop leak if safe to do so. Move containers from fire area if you can do so without risk. Use standard firefighting procedures and consider the hazards of other involved materials. May intensify fire; oxidizer. Contact with combustible material may cause fire. 6. Accidental release measures Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up Keep unnecessary personnel away. Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak. Keep away from clothing and other combustible materials. Wear appropriate protective equipment and clothing during clean-up. Do not touch damaged containers or spilled material unless wearing appropriate protective clothing. Ensure adequate ventilation. Local authorities should be advised if significant spillages cannot be contained. For personal protection, see section 8 of the SDS. Eliminate all ignition sources (no smoking, flares, sparks, or flames in immediate area). Keep combustibles (wood, paper, oil, etc.) away from spilled material. Ventilate the contaminated area. Wear appropriate protective equipment and clothing during clean-up. Prevent entry into waterways, sewer, basements or confined areas. Large Spills: Stop the flow of material, if this is without risk. Dike the spilled material, where this is possible. Use a non-combustible material like vermiculite, sand or earth to soak up the product and place into a container for later disposal. Following product recovery, flush area with water. Small Spills: Absorb with earth, sand or other non-combustible material and transfer to containers for later disposal. Clean surface thoroughly to remove residual contamination. Never return spills to original containers for re-use. For waste disposal, see section 13 of the SDS.
