PURPOSE: To provide the BOCC with a brief report on details of several contract renewals
and equipment bids scheduled for consideration as part of the consent agenda at the Board's
September 5, 2000 regular meeting.
BACKGROUND: Given the large volume and complexity of decision items facing the BOCC at
its regular meetings, staff felt it would be beneficial to report on and answer questions about a
number of pending solid waste matters at the August 30 solid waste work session. The staff's
intent is to provide immediate feedback on any BOCC questions or concerns either at the work
session or in the written agenda materials for the September 5 meeting so the Board can
consider these solid waste matters as part of the consent agenda, leaving more time on
September 5 to deal with other issues. The pending contracts and equipment acquisitions to be
reported by staff at the work session are outlined below and in the attached staff memo, and
include:
• urban curbside recycling contract
• food waste recycling contract
• in -house paper and container recycling contract
• landfill compactor bid
• scraper pan bid
The urban curbside contract is currently held by Waste Industries. They collect recyclables
weekly from approximately 14,400 homes in the incorporated areas of Carrboro, Chapel Hill
and Hillsborough.
2
Judy Brooks Contracting of Goldston, NC collects about 60 tons of food waste from 13
restaurants and other establishments in Orange County. They compost this with 5,000 tons of
other material and sell their products statewide.
Orange Recycling Services holds the in -house contract to collect from 19 local government
locations. This is a renewal of-the existing service agreement.
The Landfill compactor is on a six -year replacement schedule. Equipment reserve funds have
been allocated annually and a bid has been let. This will be the last compactor purchased for
use in the mixed solid waste landfill.
The tractor scraper is on a six -year replacement schedule outlined in the equipment
replacement schedule incorporated in the approved Solid Waste Management Department
budget. This contractor replaces one bought in 1989.
Staff will also provide brief reports on two other large recycling contracts that are not up for
renewal, but about which the Board likely will be interested, as they represent a major share of
the public services carried out or overseen by the Solid Waste Management Department.
These contracts are:
• the Rural Curbside Agreement, which is budgeted for $185,000 in the current year,
serving about 8,500 households at a cost of $1.82 per household per month - tonnage
averages have been about 380 /year; and
• the Multifamily Complex Agreement is budgeted at $255,500 in the current year, serving
225 sites throughout Orange County at a cost of $106.68 per single site per month -
tonnage averages have been about 1,600 /year.
Staff plans to continue to administer these contracts as approved prior to the landfill transition in
April 2000, pending any questions and /or direction received from the BOCC at this August 30
work session.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: All three contracts proposed for renewal are on a fee - for - service basis.
Adequate funds to cover all contracts and equipment purchases have been budgeted in the
2000 -01 Solid Waste /Landfill Operations Enterprise Fund. Contract costs are: food waste -
$60,000; in -house - $15,800; and urban curbside - $614,800. The compactor has a cost net of
trade -in of $315,972. The net cost of the scraper is $181,285.
RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends that the Board review the contracts and
the equipment bids, as outlined in the attached memorandum, and prepare any questions for
the staff. No BOCC decisions are required at this work session. Staff plans to present these
items for formal BOCC approval as part of the consent agenda at the September 5 regular
BOCC meeting.
MEMORANDUM
To: Board of Orange County Commissioners
John Link, County Manager
From: Gayle Wilson, Solid Waste Management Director
Subject: Information about three recycling contracts and two pieces of landfill equipment scheduled
for bid award
Date: August 24, 2000
This memorandum presents information to the BOCC regarding three recycling contracts and two
equipment bids in order for the BOCC to ask questions, make comments and resolve any outstanding
issues prior to the September 5, 2000 regular meeting. All five of these items are currently scheduled to
appear on the BOCC consent agenda for the September 5 business meeting.
Recycling Contracts for Renewal: The three recycling contracts have been in place for varying lengths of
time. We propose to renew all three with the current service- providers. All three service providers have
been reliable, responsive to complaints, and have worked closely with staff to resolve problems and
improve program performance. Table 1 below summarizes key details of the three contracts.

Equipment Replacements: The two pieces of equipment for which replacement is proposed have reached
the end of their reliable service life and are on a regular replacement schedule. As part of the overall
budgeting process, the landfill has operated an equipment replacement fund for twenty years, which funds
reserve accounts in anticipation of periodic replacements. Each year, an equipment replacement schedule
is presented as part of the landfill budget approval process (page 10 -17 from 2000 -01 Orange County
Budget document is attached for reference). All bids have been properly executed according to County
procedures.
The compactor is used exclusively in landfill operations to reduce the volume of waste, thus increasing
landfill life. Since the County has decided not to site a new mixed solid waste (MSW) landfill, we expect
this will be the last compactor purchased by the Orange County Landfill. Transfer stations do not utilize
this type of equipment, nor will it be utilized for post —closure site maintenance of the current MSW
landfill.
The tractor - scraper is used to dig and move large amounts of earth from one location to another without
loading it into a dumptruck. It is well- suited to short hauls of earth for daily, intermediate and final cover
as well as road maintenance at a landfill. The landfill site may be in use for some time after the landfill
closes (for recycling, yard waste mulching, etc.). Therefore, we expect there will be need for another
scraper in the future (tentatively programmed for FY 2006 -07) to close out the existing landfill and for
post - closure maintenance. Table 2 below summarizes pertinent information about the proposed purchases.

The Solid Waste Management Department operates the landfill and recycling programs as its primary
efforts. Purchase of the two pieces of equipment required for daily landfill operation will allow us to
continue to professionally and efficiently operate our facility without significant equipment down time or
loss of reliability. The three recycling contracts represent continuation of current practice. Only an
incremental increase in housing units served (in -fill) is included in the urban recycling contract.

State of North Carolina Agreement for vo County of Orange Recycling Services
CURBSIDE RECYCLING AGREEMENT
between
The County of Orange
and
Waste Industries, Inc.
This agreement, entered into this the day of 2000, by and between the County of
Orange, North Carolina (hereinafter "County "), and Waste Industries, Inc. of Durham, North
Carolina (Contractor) for the provision of residential curbside recycling collection services to single
family residents, and adjacent small businesses, schools, churches, and pedestrian recycling stations
within residential areas, located within Town limits of Carrboro, Chapel Hill and Hillsborough,
NC; and
WHEREAS, Waste Industries desires to provide Recycling Collection Services as defined herein;
NOW, THEREFORE, The County of Orange and Waste Industries do hereby agree as follows:
SECTION 1
Definitions
For purposes of this Agreement, the following terms shall apply:
Recyclable Materials: (also to be known as "recyclables') All newspapers and their inserts,
glossy magazines, phonebooks, glass bottles and jars, aluminum beverage cans, steel food
cans, plastic bottles #1 and #2, and other agreed on materials that are the subject of the
County's recycling collection contract.
Recycling Collection Services: Those services to be performed by Contractor as follows: (a) the
collection of Recyclable Materials from residential areas specifically designated by the parties;
(b) processing of Recyclable Materials which include the sorting and preparation of Recyclable
Materials for marketing at the Processing Center; (c) marketing of the Recyclable Materials;
and (d) keeping accurate and thorough records of the amount of materials and number of
households collected weekly.
County: "County" shall mean the County of Orange, NC who is the administrator of this
recycling program managed by the Department of Solid Waste Management.
Orange County: "Orange County" shall refer to the area within the geographic boundaries of
Orange County, NC.
Towns: Unless otherwise stated, "Towns" shall mean the Towns of Carrboro, Chapel Hill, and
Hillsborough, which are incorporated municipalities within or mostly within Orange County,
NC.
Successor: In the case of a transfer of landfill administration, the future government or
organization that administers the Orange County Landfill.
1
Recycling Containers: Recycling bins made of rigid plastic construction to be used by residents
to set out their Recyclable Materials and provided by County or future landfill administrative
government/organization.
Residence: A single - family home or approved church, school, small business, institution, or
small apartment complex within residential sectors of the Towns. The occupant of a Residence
shall be referred to as a Resident.
Segregated Materials: Recyclable Materials placed in or adjacent to Recycling Container.
Set Out: A Set Out shall be defined as having occurred when one Residence places one or more
Recycling Containers at the curb for collection. When counting set outs for measuring
participation and productivity, Contractor shall count one set out for each residence
participating in the program. This count will be based on the number of households or
Residences participating, not on the number of Recycling Containers collected.
Handicap / Disabled: shall refer to citizens of the Towns who, for the purposes of this
agreement, will receive recycling service at their back door or some place other than
curbside. County staff will make the determination as to which citizens are eligible for
Handicap collection. Said determination will be based upon citizen need, as judged by
County staff, and shall generally be based upon the citizen being eligible to receive an
handicap parking permit from the NC Division of Motor Vehicles. Additionally, Handicap /
Disabled services shall generally not be granted to Residences with able bodied adults in the
household.
SECTION 2
Term of Agreement
The term of the contract will be for one year unless otherwise agreed by the parties; the period from
July 1, 2000, through June 30, 2001 assuming that funds are appropriated annually and the
performance of the contractor is satisfactory. The level of performance expected is defined in this
contract.
This service may be extended and/or expanded annually for a period up to two (2) years assuming
that the project is successful, County recommends continuing the program and approves funding
for each annual term of the contract through their approval of the overall landfill and recycling
budget. After two (2) years, contract extension may be negotiated yearly. Certain terms of this
contract may be subject to change annually pending notice to the contractor and successful
negotiation between the Contractor and County.
SECTION 3
Costs of Service
The cost of service for July 1, 2000 -June 30, 2001 shall be $3.36 per household. Performance
Sharing may decrease this cost (see Section 4).
The cost of providing curbside recycling service to small businesses, churches, and other
institutions that are adjacent to a curbside recycling route will be determined as follows: the cost
will be equal to the cost of providing service to a household multiplied by the number of bins
assigned to the small business, church, or institution. For example, during Fiscal Year 2000 -2001,
2
WR bu,. 7 8
to service a preschool which is assigned three curbside recycling bins and located in a residential
area within one of the Towns, County will be billed at the rate of 3 x $3.36 per month or $10.08 per
month.
The cost of providing curbside recycling service to pedestrian recycling stations that are nearby or
adjacent to a curbside recycling route will be determined as follows: the cost will be equal to five
(5) times the cost of providing service to a household. For example, during Fiscal Year 2000 -2001
for Contractor to service a pedestrian recycling station located at Carrboro Town Hall, County will
be billed at the rate of 5 x $3.36 per month or $16.80 per month.
If County and Contractor choose to extend this contract for additional years, actual costs for future
years are to be negotiated annually. The formula for negotiating future costs is to be as follows:
Cost of collection per household in 2001 -2002 within the Town limits of Carrboro, Hillsborough
and Chapel Hill shall not exceed $3.36 per household plus the increased cost factor provided from
the Bureau of Labor Statistics Consumer Price Index for Transportation for the South Urban region
as measured in March 2001 and compared to March 2000. This cost shall be reduced $0.06 per
home for each increment of 5 homes per hour collection efficiency over 50 stops per hour.
Cost per household for 2002 -2003 shall be allowed to increase above the 2001 -2002 price by an
amount equal to the Bureau of Labor Statistics Consumer Price Index for Transportation for the
South Urban region as measured in March 2002 and compared to March 2001. This cost shall be
reduced $0.06 per home for each increment of 5 homes per hour collection efficiency over 50 stops
per hour.
The contract may also be expanded or reduced at the option of County to include additional or
fewer residential homes and adjacent small businesses, schools, institutions, churches, and
pedestrian recycling stations. If legislation or ordinances are passed which significantly impact the
participation in this program, the cost of service for this program may be renegotiated between the
Contractor and County.
SECTION 4
Performance Sharing
Performance Sharing will be based on measured improvements in operational productivity. Any
increase in productivity will be measured against a base of 50 homes per hour collected. This
measurement shall be based on the actual bin set out rate. If an increase in productivity is
measured, for each five homes per hour improvement above the base of 50, Contractor will reduce
the cost of the monthly invoice by $0.06 per resident. The homes per hour calculation will be based
on the total Set Outs per month divided by the total truck hours required to for the curbside
collection vehicles to collect, transport, and unload the recyclable materials. This calculation will
be made on a monthly basis from daily reports of total set outs and truck hours. This data will
originate from Contractor's daily truck information accumulated each month. Contractor shall
furnish the information needed to make such a calculation, and Contractor will make this
calculation. Contractor will include both the data used to make said calculation and the result of
said calculation with the required monthly report. In the event that an improvement in productivity
is determined to have taken place during any month, the cost of collection shall be reduced by -
$0.06 per household billed. This reduction in collection cost per household shall be in effect for the
month in which the increase in productivity was measured and for all months that follow
throughout the remainder of the contract.
3
SECTION 5
Scope of Services
Contractor shall perform Recycling Collection Services in the Towns as follows:
Contractor shall collect and remove for marketing or reuse all Recyclable Materials which are
"segregated" and placed in or adjacent to approved Recycling Containers at the curb or other
agreed upon location in the case of Handicap / Disabled collection. Routes will be run on a
once per week collection schedule. The Recycling Collection Services performed may be
expanded as the budget and other constraints permit.
Contractor shall assist in collection effectiveness by ensuring that any materials spilled in the
process of recycling collections or any overflowing recylables are collected and placed in the
truck.
Collectors shall carry a broom and dustpan to sweep up any broken glass or litter that occurs in
the process of recycling. Collection personnel shall also pick up any recyclables under or
immediately next to the recycling containers, when recyclables are properly contained.
Where there are improperly prepared recyclables, unacceptable materials placed in the bins, or
recyclable marerials placed in an unapproved container, Contractor shall leave form notices
for the resident explaining the problem. Said notice form must be approved by County.

containers to deposit recyclables collected by its commercial recycling program. Contractor shall
take possession of and title to said materials at the time said materials are deposited into the roll -off
containers by County. Contractor shall enjoy any revenue gained from the marketing of said
materials.
Continuous access to the roll -off containers shall be defined as the containers being placed in a
position that allows County employees access to said containers from the elevated loading dock,
enabling materials to be dumped into said roll -off containers from above. Contractor will cooperate
with County and make sure that the needed roll -off containers are placed such a fashion as to allow
County employees and County collection vehicles access to said containers from 7 AM until 5 PM
daily. Contractor will keep these roll -off containers in such condition as to ensure that they have
capacity to accept the materials generated by County. Contractor will be allowed two (2) hours to
remove said containers for transporting the contents to market. If said roll -off containers are not in
the specified position or do not have capacity to accept materials from County, then County may
levy penalties equal to $25 per hour for each hour between 7 AM and 5 PM that the roll -off
containers are either not in the specified position or do not have capacity to accept materials
generated by County (two (2) hour grace period excepted). Any resultant penalties may be
deducted from the cost of service for this contract for the month in which the event took place.
County will document any event resulting in penalties being levied and will notify Contractor's
representative by telephone at the time that fines begin accumulating.
Failure to clean the temporary storage site within two (2) working days of written or faxed
notification by County may result in County hiring a service to clean the area with the costs of the
service to be deducted from the following month's invoice. Cost of cleaning service shall not
exceed $250.00 without due notification of Contractor.
Contractor will assist County with costs for any necessary repairs or improvements to the concrete
pads and/or drainage systems that have been built at the temporary loading dock. Estimated costs
9
of specific repairs or improvements will be negotiated with County. Contractor's portion of the
costs will not exceed $3,000.00 per fiscal year (regardless of the number of contracts between
County and Contractor), and may be paid by reductions in monthly invoices from this contract.
SECTION 11
Labor and Costs
Contractor shall, at its sole cost and expense, except as otherwise provided herein, furnish all labor
and equipment required to perform curbside collection of Recyclable Materials pursuant to this
Agreement.
SECTION 12
Penalties for Missed Pick -Uus of Materials Collected in this Proeram
In case of a missed pick -up reported by County or a resident (late set -outs excluded), Contractor
shall collect the Recyclable Materials from such point by 5:00 PM of the working day following
written or faxed notification of said missed pick up if point was accessible and not blocked. All
calls relating to missed pick -ups or other collection problems shall be logged by County recycling
staff and will be available for review by Contractor.
If containers which were recorded by County as not collected by Contractor are not collected by
5:00 PM of the working day (including Monday through Friday, but not Saturdays, Sundays, or
designated holidays) following written or faxed notification of Contractor by County, County may
levy penalties equal to $25 per household per day not collected. To avoid the penalty, Contractor
must provide legitimate explanation for non - collection before 5:00 PM of the day following the
non - collection report if the container was unable to be collected for a certain reason.
If County receives a report of five (5) or more missed collections in one area on a working day that
is followed by a non - working day, Contractor will provide collection by 5:00 PM the following
day, excluding holidays. For example if County receives notification of 5 or more missed
collections on one street, or in one neighborhood at 4:30 PM on a Friday and notifies Contractor of
the reported misses by close of business on that Friday, Contractor will provide collection by 5:00
PM on Saturday (assuming that Saturday is not a recognized holiday).
SECTION 13
Refusal to Pick Up
Contractor may choose not to pick up if Recyclable Materials are contaminated or improperly
prepared (i.e., yogurt containers, newspapers in plastic bags, plastic bottles with lids). When and if
Recyclable Materials are not collected, a notice must be left accurately describing why the bin
contents were not collected. The form of said notice must be pre- approved by County. This notice
must contain instructions describing how to properly prepare materials for recycling and how to
contact County for further information about recycling programs.
In a situation where a street is inaccessible to the Contractor's collection vehicle due to a parked
vehicle, utility work, construction work, or any other obstruction rendering a roadway
completely or partially blocked, Contractor may attempt to service said street later that same day,
7
12
�•l, C C =h ut�
13
either by sending the collection vehicle back, or by sending someone with a smaller vehicle to
collect the materials.
If Contractor cannot provide service on the scheduled day, Contractor will report non - collection
to County on the day that service is scheduled to be provided. County prefers to be notified at the
time that the inaccessibility is discovered. Knowledge of inaccessibility is important to County
and is useful when dealing with the residents of these areas as they call to report missed
collections. If Contractor cannot notify County at the time that inaccessibility is discovered,
Contractor must notify County (either by telephone, fax, or in person) before 4:30 PM of that
day. If Contractor fails to notify County of areas that are not able to be collected due to
inaccessibility by 4:30 PM of the day the area is scheduled to be serviced, County may levy
penalties equal to $25 per household not collected. Any resultant penalties may be deducted
from the cost of service for the month in which the failure to notify took place.
When County receives a report of a missed collection from a resident of an area that was not
serviced due to inaccessibility, County will instruct the resident to leave their recyclable
materials at the curbside and to expect collection either later during their scheduled service day
or no later than 5:00 PM of the next working day (assuming that the roadway is no longer
inaccessible).
Contractor will provide collection of an area not serviced due to inaccessibility by 5:00 PM of the
next working day. In the case of ongoing construction or blockage, recycling collection may be
cancelled, and in this case residents will be notified by County that curbside recycling must be
suspended until construction is complete or the cause of the inaccessibility is removed.
SECTION 14
Processing Center
Contractor may maintain a Processing Center at its facilities located in the City of Durham, the City
of Raleigh or at other locations. All Recyclable Materials collected from residents may be
processed at the Processing Center. Title to Recyclable Materials brought to the Processing Center
shall be with Contractor and they shall have the responsibility for the sale of such Recyclable
Materials. Storage of Recyclable Materials at the Processing Center shall be limited to that which
can be properly contained pursuant to permits issued by the responsible jurisdiction. Contractor
shall notify County Representatives, in writing, not less than thirty (30) days prior to any relocation
of the Processing or Drop -Off Center.
If County elects to build its own recycling processing center during the term of this contract, or to
divert the materials collected under this contract to any other existing facility, the materials
collected in this program may be directed to that processing center and become property of County
at County's discretion. Any changes in net revenue to the Contractor as a result of this change in
destination and ownership of recyclable materials, or as a result of the need for the Contractor to
make equipment modifications, shall be negotiated between the Contractor and County.
SECTION 15
Public Awareness Program
1), R A F 'T 14
County shall develop and implement a Curbside Recycling Public Awareness Program. Contractor
agrees to materially assist County with publicity efforts by ensuring that Contractor's employees

manner, how materials are processed.
Contractor's collection crews shall maintain a supply of recycling brochures furnished by the
County for residents. Contractor may distribute County provided brochures as needed by

program at times other than during operation of the program; however, County must be informed in
advance of such distribution and its contents.
County shall conduct public awareness programs and residential education programs to assure
proper separation of materials into the recycling containers and to encourage the public to remove
lids from all containers and flatten plastic soda bottles, milk jugs, and aluminum and steel cans
before depositing in their recycling containers.
SECTION 16
Compensation for Services
County agrees to make monthly payments to Contractor within thirty (30) days of receipt by
County of an accurate invoice and collection data from July 1, 2000 through June 30, 2001 at the
rates agreed on in Section 3 of this agreement. If there are questions regarding the invoice or
collection data, payment shall be guaranteed within thirty (30) days of satisfactory resolution of the

when requested from the temporary storage areas on County or Town of Chapel Hill property.
In the event of severe weather or other event which necessitates the temporary cancellation of
9
recycling services County may negotiate with Contractor and receive a reduction in cost of services
for services which were not rendered. In general, if services are temporarily canceled at County's
request, County will pay in full for services which are not performed, and in such case County may
request that Contractor provide said services on a make -up day at no further cost to County. If
Contractor is unable to provide service due to severe weather or other event, County may negotiate
with Contractor and receive reduction in the cost of services, to be deducted from the bill for the
period during which services were not provided, or from a bill for any service period following that
service period. Any reduction in the costs of services shall be based upon the pro -rata share of
services not rendered minus Contractor's verifiable overhead expenses plus any verifiable increased
expenses (i.e. overtime costs incurred by Contractor due to excessive amounts of recyclables
having been held over during period of cancellation).
SECTION 17
Protection of Recyclable Materials

State of North Carolina Agreement for
County of Orange Recycling Services
IN-HOUSE RECYCLING CONTRACT
This agreement, entered into this day of 2000, by and between The County of
Orange, North Carolina (hereinafter "County ") and Orange Recycling Services Inc. of Durham,
North Carolina (hereinafter "ORS ") for the provision of recycling services to specified locations
within Orange County, NC.
In consideration of the mutual promises hereinafter set forth and for good and valuable
considerations, the parties hereby agree as follows:
A. Duties of the Contractor
1. ORS has express permission to enter specified locations during normal business hours and at
a time pre - arranged with individuals at that specific unit for the purpose of removing specified
materials generated through business operations of that unit. Specific Service Locations and
frequency of collection at said locations are to be found in Attachment A.
2. ORS has express rights to claim materials collected in this program provided those materials
come under a category commonly and previously considered as waste and traditionally destined
for permanent disposal by the client. Upon removal materials shall become property of ORS and
shall be recycled or otherwise productively used in a manner to be agreed on by the County and
ORS.
3. Materials collected shall be limited to the following:
a. Paper and paper board products;
b. Ferrous and non - ferrous metal beverage and food containers;
C. Plastic containers and packaging except polystyrene and foam;
d. Glass beverage and food containers.
Materials collected at each service location shall include but not be limited to: white ledger
paper, glossy paper (OMG) grade, office fiber, news paper (ONP), and aluminum beverage cans.
Collection of materials beyond those listed above are to be negotiated on a case by case, site by
site basis. Corrugated Cardboard (OCC) shall be collected by ORS at specified locations only.
For a list of locations where OCC is to be collected see Attachment B.
4. The frequency of collection for each service location is specified in Attachment A. ORS shall
maintain a regularly scheduled pickup at the frequency specified in Attachment A. ORS will
provide the County with a service schedule listing collection dates for each service location.
This schedule shall be based on collection frequencies as specified in Attachment A. ORS shall
respond to 80 percent of requests for additional service by 5:00 PM of the working day following
1
L
a call -in requesting service due to container being full. The remaining 20 % of requests for
additional service shall be responded to by 5:00 PM of the second working day following a call -
in requesting additional service. If the 80% response is not achieved the County can provide for
service and deduct the subsequent cost of providing this service from the monthly invoice for
service provided by ORS. Requests for additional service must come from Orange County
Department of Solid Waste Management, requests from third parties are not to be recognized
unless specified by Orange County Department of Solid Waste Management.
5. ORS will utilize collection equipment and containers which are suitable for the job given the
amount of material collected and the logistical considerations of each collection location. In
general, ORS shall provide clean, labeled fiber or plastic drums for collection of materials and
shall transport all materials collected in a closed -body vehicle in a manner which will prevent
littering from the vehicle and in a manner which will prevent hazard to life, health, and property
of the County and the society at large and in accordance within all local, state, and federal laws
and regulations. ORS agrees to operate this program in a manner consistent with vehicle safety,
fire safety, and good housekeeping practices.
6. ORS agrees that collection containers shall have clean, undamaged exteriors, and be clearly
labeled as to contents. If the collection capacity at a specified service location exceeds that of the
containers provided by ORS, the County can request that ORS provide additional containers at
the location, or the County may adjust the collection schedule to allow for more frequent
collections. If the County, for aesthetic or other reasons, would like to furnish alternative
collection containers, these shall be negotiated with ORS. Alternative collection containers will
be provided at the expense of the County or at the expense of the management of the service
location. ORS will not deny reasonable requests for use of alternative collection containers
which are similar in shape and size to the standard fiber drums.
ORS can, at its option, with agreement by the management at any affected service location and
County Solid Waste Programs Manager, increase the collection capacity at a particular location,
for a particular material in a logical fashion when such expansion shall permit a more efficient
collection schedule for all materials being collected from that particular site. This collection
capacity increase may take place provided that the capacity increase does not interfere with
County operations.
7. ORS shall maintain at its sole cost and expense, adequate insurance coverages. Such
coverages shall remain in effect during the term of the contract, and shall contain at a minimum:
a. Comprehensive General Liability - Minimum limits shall be set at $1,000,000 (one
million dollars) per occurrence combined single limit for bodily injury liability. This

b. Business Auto Insurance - minimum limits shall be set at $1,000,000 (one million
dollars) per occurrence combined single limit for bodily injury, liability, and property
damage. This shall include both owned vehicles, hired and non -owned vehicles;
K

limits in compliance with the applicable state and federal laws. The policy shall include
employer's liability with a limit of $100,000 each accident, $1,000,000 bodily injury by
disease each employee and $500,000 injury by disease policy limit.

liability policy;
b. Current valid insurance policies meeting the above requirements shall be maintained
for the duration of the project. Renewal certificates shall be sent to the County thirty (30)
days prior to cancellation or modification of any stipulated insurance coverage.
Certificates of insurance shall be on an ACORD form meeting the required insurance
provisions.
c. ORS shall ensure that any subcontractors comply with the same insurance
requirements outlined above;
d. ORS agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the County from all loss, liability, claim,
or expense from damage caused in whole or part by negligence or willful misconduct of
the contractor except to the extent that the same are caused by the negligence or
misconduct of the County.
9. ORS agrees that if, through any cause, it fails to fulfill in a timely and proper manner the
obligations under this contract, the County shall have the right to terminate this contract by
giving written, notice to ORS at least thirty days before termination. ORS agrees that if a site
overflows and the County requests an additional collection and ORS cannot provide service
within the parameters defined in Section A, Paragraph 4 of this agreement, the County may
deduct the cost of providing service to that site from the monthly invoice.
The County agrees that if the quality of materials separations at any collection location becomes
so poor or if it is evident that material is being brought in to the program from outside County
operations or the operations specific to the service location, that ORS has the right to terminate
the collection at that location. Before ORS initiated termination of service at any location can
occur, ORS must provide County with a verbal warning following the first occurrence and a
written warning following the second occurrence of any problem which might necessitate
termination of service. Prior to termination, and resulting from collections for which warnings
are necessary, the County agrees to compensate ORS for cleaning drums of contaminated
materials. ORS agrees that the recyclable materials sorted from the contaminated collections will
be recycled where possible and not landfilled.
If collection of a material at a location is terminated, the County shall no longer be obligated to
3
41
pay for collection of that material at that location after the month in which it is terminated.
10. ORS agrees that, if there are more than three substantive complaints per month regarding
collections, that the County shall be able to deduct payment for service for each site at which said
substantive complaints took place for that month. Substantive complaints may include, but are
not limited to the following: failure to collect on a scheduled collection day; failure to respond to
a request for additional service within allowed time frame. The legitimacy of complaints other
than those specifically listed above shall be determined jointly by ORS and the County.
11. ORS agrees to provide, with its monthly invoice a monthly report detailing the weight of
material picked up from each stop and the frequency of collection. The report will detail
amounts of recyclables collected at each location by material. These weights are to be based,
when possible, on the actual weight of the recyclable material as determined by a calibrated scale
as the materials are collected. The weights may also be estimates which are based on the weight
of the specific type of container used in the collection program when they are full of material to
be collected (benchmark weights). The weighing of the containers to establish benchmark
weights is to be conducted jointly with the Solid Waste Programs Manager or Recycling
Coordinator and an ORS representative. Additionally, ORS shall provide the county with an
annual summary of the materials collected from each service location.
12. ORS shall provide the County a copy of the written protocol that it uses to inform the
County of its methodology for estimating weights of various materials collected from the
buildings listed in this contract. The copy of said protocol must be submitted to the County with
the signed copies of this contract.
13. ORS agrees that uncontaminated material collected from this program shall be recycled or otherwise
productively reused and shall not landfilled. Other forms of productive reuse shall be negotiated with
the County.
14. ORS agrees to provide the collection of corrugated cardboard (OCC) from the sites listed in
Attachment B. OCC collection will take place carts with a maximum capacity of 90 gallons
each. The carts will be provided by the County unless otherwise agrees to by ORS and County.
Collections will occur during the regularly scheduled visits to these service locations. ORS will
not be responsible for collecting boxes that are not broken down, or boxes that are contaminated
by food waste or other such contaminants.
15. ORS agrees to provide additional hauling services as mutually agreed to by County and
ORS. The County will maintain ownership of all hauled materials (i.e. recyclables) unless
otherwise specified. ORS will be responsible for damage to County property or private property
which occurs as a result of hauling services. ORS agrees to provide the County with data
receipts from each haul of recyclable material which they haul to a materials vendor. Any data
receipts must be submitted on at least a monthly basis.
