The cost of chemicals to prevent corrosion in the city of Corner Brook has gone up by 50 cents US per kilogram. These phosphates are a vital additive to reduce the corrosion in the water distribution network. At last night’s public meeting, council approved a one year extension to the contract at nearly $9.24 US. Councillor Donna Wheeler asked about the increase in cost from a year ago. Assistant Director of Engineering, Aaron O’Brien says this is needed to create an emergency stockpile.
The supplier is Shannon Chemical Corporation out of Pennsylvania and O’Brien says while this cost increase is not a result of tariffs, the city will be looking for new suppliers. The phosphates will be ordered on an “as needed” basis.
