C.6.3 Weighing of Materials <br /> The processing facilities shall be capable of weighing all incoming and outgoing <br /> material. Outgoing material includes both recovered materials and residue to be <br /> landfilled. <br /> Contractor must develop a system to ensure that outgoing recyclables collected <br /> under this program are accurately tracked by material type, such as newsprint, <br /> plastics, aluminum, metals, office paper, and other reporting categories to be <br /> approved by the City. Contractor must either: <br /> 1) Keep material collected under this program separate and weigh each material <br /> separately by material type; or, <br /> 2) Provide a verifiable system, subject to the approval of the City, for determining <br /> the amount of each material type recovered from waste generated within Santa <br /> Ana. The Contractor will be responsible for ensuring that the scales are Weigh <br /> Master certified and maintained in accurate working order . <br /> Any proposal which does not include an acceptable and verifiable method for <br /> consistently identifying the amount by weight of each commodity recycled will be <br /> considered non-responsive. <br /> The City reserves the right to have one or more City employees audit scales or other <br /> points of verification at the Contractor's processing facility. <br /> C.6.4 Processing Facility Regulatory Compliance <br /> The Contractor shall process all such solid waste in compliance with the City's <br /> Source Reduction and Recycling Element ("SRRE") and California Integrated <br /> Waste Management Act (CIWMA). Contractor shall transport all solid waste <br /> collected by the Contractor within the City boundaries to a fully permitted Materials <br /> Recovery Facility ("MRF"), which MRF shall be acceptable to the City. All solid <br /> waste transported to said MRF shall be processed and recyclables shall be recovered <br /> in accordance with the City's waste diversion requirements so as to comply with <br /> the City's SRRE and the CIWMA. In the event that the MRF approved by the City is <br /> not operated by the Contractor, Contractor will be responsible to subcontract for the <br /> use of such a facility so as to ensure the City's compliance with the City's SRRE and <br /> the CIWMA. <br /> C.7 YARD WASTE DIVERSION PROGRAM REQUIREMENTS <br /> The contractor shall develop and implement a yardwaste diversion program in <br /> accordance with the City's SRRE that will meet its waste diversion goals. <br /> Page 12 <br />
