II. DESCRIPTION OF BASIC SERVICES <br /> A. BASIC COLLECTION <br /> 1. Curbside Service <br /> At present, Great Western Reclamation provides the City of Santa Ana with <br /> non-automated solid waste collection. Historically, Great Western Reclamation has <br /> provided unlimited residential solid waste service for the City of Santa Ana. <br /> Curbside solid waste collection is and will continue to be provided to the City <br /> of Santa Ana once per week Monday through Friday. The City of Santa Ana is <br /> currently divided into (5) geographic sections for each service week. Each section <br /> is comprised of 19 routes. Each route is assigned a (3) axle front loading truck <br /> with a 38 cubic yard capacity and a (1) man crew. <br /> Great Western Reclamation will continue to route and schedule collection of <br /> solid waste so as not to interfere with the City's current street sweeping operation. <br /> In addition, Great Western Reclamation will adapt its collection schedule to meet <br /> time requirements if the City of Santa Ana makes any changes to its sweeping <br /> schedule in the future. <br /> Please see the following City map <br /> Collection of residential waste is presently accomplished by assigning drivers <br /> to specific routes. Actual pickup of waste is done manually. Drivers manually lift <br /> garbage cans and bags and place them into a bin which is then hydraulically lifted <br /> to the cargo bay of the waste collection vehicle. Once the cargo bay is full, the <br /> solid waste will be taken to the Material Recovery Facility or nearest landfill. Great <br /> Western Reclamation proposes the continual use of this collection method for our <br /> curbside service. <br /> In addition to Great Western Reclamation's efficient collection process, there are <br /> and will continue to be specific programs that will help increase our recycling and <br /> 6 <br />
