This service is intended for use by the city's Water Treatment Plant Department(s) for the previously described purpose above.

Proposals must be submitted in a sealed envelope. o In submitting a proposal, it is understood by the vendor that the City of Hendersonville reserves the right to accept any proposal to reject any and all proposals when to do so is in the best interest of the City, and to waive any immaterial irregularities or informalities in proposals when to do so is in the best interest of the City and where to do so would not give the bidder an unfair advantage, but not for the purposes of evading the public bidding laws. o Any proposal may be withdrawn or modified by written request of the vendor, provided such request is received by the City at the designated address prior to the date and time set for receipt of proposals. o If a proposal includes any propriety data or information, such data or information must be specifically identified as such on every page on which it is found.
