BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS MASON COUNTY,WASHINGTON ATTEST: Pat Tarzwell, Chair McKenzie Smith, Clerk of the Board Randy Neatherlin, Vice Chair APPROVED AS TO FORM: Tim u e ead,Ch. DPA Sharon Trask,Commissioner For Earth, For Life JUNE 22, 2026 Kea bQF'] Richard Dickinson Mason County WA RE: Kubota Water and Environment USA Status as Sole Source Vendor Mr. Dickinson This letter is to confirm that Kubota Water and Environment USA is a sole source provider for all Kubota Membrane units and associated component parts. The membrane units and individual pieces and accessories are manufactured,sold and distributed exclusively by the Kubota Corporation through their direct U.S_ subsidiary Kubota Water and Environment USA. There are no agents, licensees, or dealers authorized to sell these products, and no other company has any right to make a similar product meeting the intent of the originally installed equipment. Given the specific design criteria and the existing systems employed at the 6elfair Wastewater Treatment Plant—including, but not limited to, flux rates, trans-membrane pressures (IMP), chemical cleaning processes, membrane air scour systems, piping, instrumentation and membrane system controls—there are no alternative products or items from other membrane suppliers that can fulfill the same purpose or function. Utilizing membranes other than those currently installed would likely lead to a significant change in the system's performance.
