Brief History. The City and CJ Bio America entered into 20 year water and sewer agreements in 2012. Both agreements had a specific minimum usage amount, otherwise known as a “take or pay” provision.

XX has requested a revision to both agreements. The Company wants the minimums to be reduced in the initial three years, and then increased to make up the difference from the original agreement within the first ten years of the contract.
