St. Lawrence County records multiple road-salt bids; several vendors decline or submit no bid
Summary
Purchasing staff opened Bid 2025-07 for road salt supply for the 2025–26 season. Staff read submissions from Compass Minerals, American Rock Salt, Cargill, Morton Salt, Apalachee Salt and Northern Supply; Atlantic Salt recorded no bid. County will verify prices and delivery terms before any award.
Assistant Purchasing Agent Stephanie Kerr opened Bid 2025-07 for road salt for the 2025–26 season and read multiple vendor submissions.
Kerr recorded a Compass Minerals entry that included separate Lot 1 and Lot 2 pricing and FOB delivery to Ogdensburg; she noted the bidder had a signed addendum. Atlantic Salt was recorded as submitting no bid on both lots. Kerr read American Rock Salt, Cargill and Morton Salt entries and recorded their delivered and FOB locations. Apalachee Salt's submission was read for Lot 1 and Lot 2. Purchasing staff also recorded a Northern Supply submission that was postmarked before the bid date and therefore accepted for record.
Some numeric notations in the transcript are compressed and their formatting is unclear; county staff will verify all prices and stockpile locations as part of the bid-review process. No awards were made at the opening; purchasing staff said they would contact bidders with questions and move to evaluation and compliance checks.
