Title
52. Approval to Procure NEWDEAL Long-Term Anti-Icer from New Deal Deicing Inc., in the Amount of $31,988
Strategic Priority
N/A
Description

This procurement authorizes the sole-source purchase of 12 supersacks (2,205 lbs each) of aviation-grade runway anti-icing products from New Deal Deicing, as it is the only product meeting all critical technical, safety, and operational standards. The specialized formula provides extended residual effectiveness through multiple freeze/thaw cycles, high pavement adhesion to prevent wash-off, and reduced application frequency while ensuring low corrosivity, equipment compatibility, and full compliance with FAA Advisory Circular AC 150/5200-30 and SAE AMS 1431 standards. Furthermore, operational testing by Airfield Operations during the last winter event validated its superior performance, noting that the high-visibility pellets significantly improved application accuracy and efficiency compared to previously utilized products.
