Modification No. M001 to CW132368 with Eastern Salt Company, Inc. Approval and Payment Authorization Emergency Declaration Resolution of 2026

This bill authorizes an emergency modification to a contract with Eastern Salt Company, Inc. to increase the spending limit for de-icing salt from $1 million to $5 million. The change allows the District of Columbia to purchase additional salt for snow removal between January 22, 2026, and December 14, 2026. It also permits the immediate payment for salt already delivered and any future deliveries under the updated agreement. The legislation is classified as an emergency measure because the contract value exceeded the standard approval threshold within a single year.
