SWDD Item Analysis: A brief summary of the attached Interlocal Agreement is,as follows: • Delivery and Acceptance of Recyclables — SWDD, through its authorized Recyclables transporter, may transport and deliver to the St. Lucie County Single Stream Processing Facility, recyclables collected in Indian River County.St. Lucie's Facility will accept the recyclables for sorting, processing, baling, marketing, and selling by St. Lucie. • Term of the Agreement — The initial term of this agreement shall commence retroactively to August 21, 2019 when SWDD started delivering recyclables to St. Lucie County, and terminates on September 30, 2025. The agreement shall automatically renew for an additional five (5) year term unless written notice of non-renewal or termination with appropriate notice as stipulated in the agreement. • Transportation Costs—SWDD is responsible for the transportation cost for delivering the recyclables to St. Lucie County. SWDD is also responsible for any transportation cost back to the IRC Landfill as a result of St. Lucie County rejecting recyclables in accordance with the appropriate procedures in the agreement. • Processing& Marketing Fee—Only in terms of a revenue share to SWDD which is detailed below, St. Lucie County will charge SWDD a processing and marketing fee of$75 per ton for the recyclables and $10 per ton for Old Corrugated Cardboard (OCC). Otherwise, SWDD shall not be required to pay a processing fee to St. Lucie if the Average Market Value (AMV) of the recyclables is less than $75.00 per ton or the value of segregated OCC is less than $10.00 per ton. • Revenue Share (This section only applies if the AMV for recyclables exceeds $75.00/ton, or the AMV for OCC exceeds$10/ton.)—On a monthly basis,starting October 1,2019,St. Lucie County has agreed to share 50% of the revenue from the sale of recyclables less the AMV of $75 per ton to cover their processing and marketing costs. Similarly, St. Lucie County has agreed to share 50% of the revenue from the sale of segregated OCC less the AMV of$10 per ton for their marketing costs. The segregated OCC requires minimal processing by St. Lucie County which reflects the difference in the rates for recyclables vs. OCC materials.
