Recovery and Waste Maaagement Plaa The County requires the Contractor to salvage, reuse or recycle a minimum of 90 percent by weight all materials removed from the project site as part of this demolition contract. The County believes that this recovery rate will help reduce the amount of waste that is placed in a landfill. To achieve this end, the Contractor shall develop with the assistance of the County, the Architect/Engineer, the Solid Waste Management Department and their special waste reduction consultant, a Recovery and Waste Management Plan for work performed on this project. The Plan at a minimum will include: a. Types of waste materials produced as a result of work performed on site b. Estimated quantities of waste produced c. Identification of materials with the potential to be recycled, reused or salvaged d On-site storage and separation requirements e. Transportation methods f. Destinations for materials g. Method for tracking and accounting of materials for meeting 90 percent recycling goal h. Estimated amount paid to Contractor for each material recovered i. Estimated cost to get materials to the market j. Estimated cost of transportation and disposal for unrecovered materials Compensation The Contractor has based its proposal to the County for this project on an estimated $25,000 in payment to the Contractor from purchasers of materials to be recycled, reused and salvaged. This was based on a preliminary estimate of what material could be recovered and probable revenue generated from each. It is understood that there may be additional materials recoverable and new markets or higher payments for material recovered. It is the desire that both parties to this Agreement benefit from this potential. Therefore, the County and the Contractor will split revenues generated from recovery that are in excess of the $25,000 amount which the Contractor based the demolition proposal. Revenues generated in addition will be split with 15 percent going to the Contractor and 85 percent to the County. The Contractor shall submit to the County records of receipts and weights of all material sold. In addition, the cost associated to the Contractor for getting materials to market and the avoided transportation and disposal cost for this material. This information will be used to determine the payment that the County and Contractor will receive for the additional materials recovered in excess of the Contractors base proposal or $25,000. Peaalty The Contractor, through their proposal, has represented that a 90 percent by weight waste recycling, reuse, and salvaging goal can be met. The Contractor has been awarded the demoliton project based on the Contractor reaching a 90 percent recovery goal. This goal will be assessed through the formula of determining the weight of material reused, recycled or salvaged, divided by the materials not reused, recycled or salvaged plus those that have. If the Contractor does not meet the agreed upon rate of 90 percent recovery rate, the Contractor shall be assessed a penalty. The penalty shall be as follows:
