Alternate Bid Item No. 2 Alternate Bid Item No. 2 is for transfer of Indian River County's Class I Municipal Solid Waste for disposal at Waste Management's Central Disposal Sanitary Landfill, in Broward County, Florida. THE UNDERSIGNED PROPONENT, having familiarized himself with the disposal requirements of the County, provides this disposal alternative for the County's consideration, consisting of the permitting and construction of a 500 tons per day capacity transfer station, to be located on County owned property at the Indian River County Landfill, with loading and transportation of Class I municipal solid waste to Waste Management's Central Disposal Sanitary Landfill, located in Northern Broward County, Florida. WMIF hereby agrees for the Alternate Bid Item No. 2 to perform all Work, including the assumption of all obligations, duties and responsibilities necessary for the completion of a negotiated mutually agreeable Contract and the furnishing of all materials and equipment required to be incorporated in and form a permanent part of the Work; tools, equipment, supplies, transportation, facilities, labor, superintendence, and services required to perform the Work (Transfer Station and disposal); and Bonds, insurance and submittals, reimbursement of unamortized capital and other similar and usual terms and conditions alt as indicated or specified in such Contract to be performed or furnished by Contractor for the following price: Alternate Bid Item No. 2 Forty-four (Dollars and) Ninety-five (Cents) (S 44.95 per ton) for Class I waste received at the Indian River, County Transfer Station, at a minimum of 80,000 tons per year. Indian River County will maintain responsibility for all other operations at the Indian River County Landfill. Alternate Bid Item No. 3 Alternate Bid Item No. 3 is for construction of a modified liner design for Class I Infill segment lateral and vertical expansion, consisting of a single layer of geosynthetic clay liner (Bentofixo or equivalent) to replace the current 2 feet of 104 cm/sec clay, which will provide better hydraulic performance than the current design. In addition, this alternative will provide an increased benefit by making available an additional 2 feet of disposal airspace within the infill footprint. Waste Management proposes this alternative liner design as a "to be negotiated" cost savings to "Total Base Bid Item No. 2". This Alternate Bid Item No. 3 will require a modified Florida Department of Environmental Protection Construction Permit. WMIF estimates the construction cost savings for this modified liner design to be approximately S200 000.00. Further technical details on WMIF's Alternate Bid Item No. 2 (Transfer Station) and Alternate Bid Item No. 3 (Bentofix® clay liner) are contained in our Class I Landfill Infill Segments I & II RFP response. If accepted, the negotiated cost savings would be deducted from the infill construction price provided in Base Bid Item No. 2. All other conditions set forth in Base Bid Item No. 2 will apply. BF -3A
