STRATEGIC OUTCOME:

Awarding the bid will allow the City to conduct the mandatory disposal and transport of Household Hazardous materials, which aligns with the City Council’s strategic outcome of Safe and Prosperous.

 

REPORT:

This contract is for the vendor to secure safe, expeditious, and cost-effective processing, packaging, removal, and disposal of hazardous wastes that are generated by or under the control of the City. The City generates hazardous waste via two sources:

                     The Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) operations, which generates approximately 70,000 pounds of regulated waste each year; and,

                     the City’s normal day-to-day operations.

 

The City currently holds three HHW events per year, which are held in the months of January, April, and November. The HHW events are currently held at 1473 S. 2nd Avenue.

 

The City is registered with the Arizona Department of Environmental Quality as a “Small Quantity Generator” of hazardous waste.  Annually, the City produces approximately 5,705 pounds of hazardous waste, 3,668 pounds of Environmental Protection Agency Universal Waste, 760 pounds of Non-hazardous waste, and 16 drums of biohazard waste.

 

Four responses were received and Clean Harbors Environmental Services, Inc. provided pricing for all 134-line items and was the lowest responsive and responsible bidder.
