Rationale: This is to the subject contract per the attached emergency declaration issued by the Superintendent on July 29, 2019. Bids are not required under an emergency declaration.

Midlantic Environmental, Inc. was selected by the Facilities Department because of their more than satisfactory history with the District. Their work is to provide all labor and materials to environmental abatement, clean up and restoration of AC wall board in the school’s library. This work became necessary after a severe cold period during which time several of the heating units in the affected room failed. This resulted in freezing temperatures which in turn froze and cracked the sprinkler system piping.
