This request is to purchase replacement filtration media and hardware for our Kruger Disc filters
that are an essential part of our tertiary filtration process. In 2008 we installed cloth disc filters,
these filters came with a five year warranty on their filter media which has now expired. Since it
is unknown how long the media will last past the warranty period, we are proposing to purchase
replacement media for one of the filters this year so we have it on hand as the existing media
nears the end of its life-cycle. This media is available from only the equipment manufacturer and
is not sold through a distributor. This is the first year of a five year filter replacement program.

that this justification for sole sourcelsole brand meets the city's criteria and is accurate.
