RFP-19-28 - Bio-Solids Management Program Transport & Benefitial Reuse of Bio-Solids

The Rensselaer County Sewer District No. 1 (RCSD) intends to retain a qualified company (Contractor) to furnish all permits, labor, materials, and equipment required to remove, transport, and beneficially reuse 100 percent of the daily production of dried, Class A bio-solids from the RCSD's Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP), which is located at the Foot of Water Street, North Greenbush, New York 12198. The initial annual production of dried, Class A bio-solids is expected to be about 1,600 wet tons (wT), or 3,000 cubic yards (CY), at a solids content greater than 90 percent. Annual production will grow based upon increased flow to the WWTP, with future annual production anticipated to be up to 2,400 wT, or 4,500 CY. Bio-solids reuse shall be by application to agricultural lands, as a component in the production of topsoil, or by other approved off-site reuse method. The Contractor shall be responsible for obtaining all permits and approvals necessary to implement the reuse program. The RCSD is requesting proposals from Contractors to perform this work.
