Snow & Ice Control Agents (Statewide)

The New York State Office of General Services has established a statewide centralized contract, Award 23451, for the provision of snow and ice control agents to authorized users across the state. Running from October 5, 2026, through September 30, 2028, the contract has an anticipated annual value of approximately 2 million dollars. The scope of work includes the supply of liquid calcium and magnesium chloride (both corrosion inhibited and with organic based performance enhancers), bulk treated salt, solar salt for brine making, and calcium chloride in flake or pellet form. Delivery is handled as FOB destination, with specific regional or county requirements depending on the product lot, and calcium chloride must be delivered in 50 lb moisture proof bags. Award selection is based on lowest price or best value, with a significant preference for domestic rock salt or sodium chloride mined or harvested in the United States per the New York State Buy American Salt Act. The contract mandates strict quality standards, including specific pH levels, moisture content not exceeding 1.5 percent, and compliance with GreenNY specifications and FTC environmental marketing guidelines. Contractors must meet socioeconomic goals of 5 percent MBE and 5 percent WBE. Administration involves itemized invoicing directly to authorized users, and the Office of General Services reserves the right to conduct inspections and sampling at contractor stockpiles or delivery points to ensure compliance with ASTM and NACE standards.
