1. The Contractor will provide all of the labor, equipment, testing and materials to process, load and transport approximately 300 tons annually of scrap metal from Hatch Hill. The metal pile size ranges from 100 to 200 tons at any given time. It is typically removed before it reaches 200 ton in size. Quantities may vary from year to year. Contractor shall remove the metal from Hatch Hill for recycling within two to four weeks of a call from Hatch Hill staff. 2. Scrap metal is stored on a paved surface where the surface runoff is collected and treated through the leachate collection system. This paved surface is a landfill cap as part of a landfill remediation project. It is critical that the contractor preserve the integrity of this paved area when performing their duties under this contract. Contractor shall be responsible to repair damage to the pavement and/or other landfill systems caused by their operations. 3. Recent contractors have loaded the metal into transport units directly from the paved pad at Hatch Hill. If contractor proposes an alternate method, a handling plan must be provided with this bid. 4. The Contractor shall provide a roll off container, 15-20 yards in size, for scrap metal generated by the City’s Central Garage operation, a division of Augusta Public Works. The container shall be located behind garage building at 55 North Street. Container will be swapped as needed. 5. Other metals such as Copper, Brass, Lead, Cast Aluminum, and Lead Batteries are also separated from the large scrap metal pile and must be transported by the Contractor upon notification.
