Re: Resolution for Sole-Source Procurement - McNeil Canyon Elementary School

Attached you will find a resolution authorizing the award of a sole-source contract to BioCycle Alaska, a local firm.

In an effort to find an expedient and cost-effective way to address the wastewater treatment problems at McNeil Canyon, extensive research of the industry was conducted. It was determined that BioCycle's proprietary technology is superior, and suited to application at McNeil Canyon. A justification memorandum is also attached.

The Borough Assembly's approval of the attached resolution is respectfully requested.
