These flow meters are controlled by use of Flo -Tote T-40 software which is
proprietary to Marsh-McBfrney Inc. and protected by copyright. Only Marsh-
McBirney meters are compatible with our existing system and application software.
Texas Local Government Code Chapter 252 exempts proprietary, sole source items
from the bid process.
