Specifications -

The Contractor shall provide all necessary labor and equipment to pump waste from an underground

30,000 tank at the Bedford Water Plant, 215 Cross River Road, Katonah and haul it to the Town of

Bedford Wastewater Plant at the intersection of Beaver Dam Road and Harris Road in Bedford Hills. The

waste consists of diluted and neutralized chlorine, sodium hydroxide, and citric acid used to clean the

membranes at the Bedford Water Plant. It s not considered hazardous material. Contractor shall comply

with all applicable laws, including having a valid Waste Transporter Permit from NYSDEC.

Pumping at the Bedford Water Plant is accomplished by dropping a suction hose through a 24” manhole

cover. Discharge at the wastewater plant is by gravity into a 24” manhole. There is typically no wait time

to access the wastewater plant. Please note that the wastewater plant does not accept septic waste. This is

a special arrangement for only waste from the Town’ water plant.

Hauling is usually scheduled for two days per week for 18,000 gallons total per week. A schedule will be

agreed to between the Town and the Contractor for convenience of both parties. Periodically additional

hauling may be necessary due to increased load from the plant. This will normally occur on the same day

as the regular hauling, and will be done on a schedule agreed to between the Town and the Contractor

with at least 24 hours notice if requested by the contractor. Lastly, emergencies may occur necessitating

emergency hauling from the plant. This has not occurred since the plant has been operating in mid 2013.

If an emergency occurs requiring immediate response due to a high level condition of the waste tank,

contractor shall respond as soon as possible, within four hours.

In addition, there are occasions when the Town utilizes the Contractor to haul liquid sludge (3%+/-solids)

from our settling process. The Town uses a 100 gpm pump to fill the truck from this source. This is

typically less than 10% of the quantity hauled on an annual basis.

There are occasions when the Town wastewater plant cannot accept waste due to plant specific

conditions. The contractor shall provide a price to haul waste to another local facility that is available and

permitted to receive this waste.

The selected Contractor shall execute and fully comply with the attached services contract, including fully

complying with the Prevailing Wage requirements stated in the contract.

Estimated annual quantities (600,000 and 60,000 gallons) are provided below. These quantities are

estimates for bid purposes, and are not guaranteed. Contractor shall be paid based on the bid price per

gallon.
