Once a named storm is tracked to the Central Coast of Florida in the proximity of Indian River County, Republic Services will have all of the material at the CCCs emptied by hauling the waste to the Indian River County Landfill. Republic Services will continue the operations of both the Landfill and the CCCs until a decision for closure is made. Republic Services and Indian River County will communicate in good faith and with the intent to come to a mutually agreeable decision with respect to the closure of the Landfill and the CCCs that takes into account the safety and protection of personnel and property. 2. Republic Services will develop a "Timeline for Closing" plan with Indian River County which will take into account Republic Services' corporate requirements (including the safety of personnel, property and assets) and Indian River County's cleanup needs. A conceptual closing and opening plan is provided below; the conceptual plan remains subject to change, depending on the requirements of the situation. 3. Republic Services will return to the Landfill and the CCCs as soon as it is safe to do so after the storm (i.e., upon issuance of an "all clear" to travel on county roads by IRC Emergency Services). Republic Services' first priority with respect to services provided to Indian River County will be to assess and document damages at the Landfill and the CCCs and to assist in reopening all of the facilities as soon as possible. 4. There may be additional costs to Indian River County to operate the Landfill and CCCs before or after the storm as detailed below. In order to facilitate the inflow of additional storm debris material, the operation of the Landfill may result in additional costs in order to effectively manage the material and comply with all state and federal statutes. Republic Services will provide Indian River County with all documentation associated with the additional services provided to return the Landfill and the CCCs to normal operations. Such documentation will include time sheets, truck counts including container sizes and any additional information reasonably requested by Indian River County to verify the costs, and shall include information related to pre -storm services and operations. Baseline information, for services and operations prior to the storm, including number of employees, shall be provided with the documentation. A) CCC Personnel Costs: The personnel costs consist of the costs to bring employees in for hours in addition to usual and customary hours. Further, if clean-up efforts require additional man-hours to perform proper operation of the CCCs, this will require employees to work beyond usual and customary hours and will require Republic Services to recoup the extra costs. The below amount covers the cost per man-hour to open for additional days/times and/or the additional time required to effectively operate the CCC post -hurricane. In order to provide for an expedited cleanup, Republic Services may employ additional employees from traffic control in order to safely navigate hauling trucks into and out of the CCCs. This will require additional employees and will require Republic Services to recoup the extra costs. If pre -storm cleanup of the CCCs is required in order to handle the additional materials from the storm, this will require additional employees and will require Republic Services to recoup the extra costs. Cost for CCC laborer man-hour: $41.99/hour/man B) CCC Operating Costs: Republic Services will make commercially reasonable efforts to clean up all storm debris at the CCCs in a timely manner. If Indian River County requests expedited clean up, Republic Services will hire third party personnel and clam truck services to perform duties. Cost for CCC operations pre or post -hurricane is based on the cost for hauling additional tonnage from CCC to Indian River County Landfill as detailed below. C) CCC Hauling Costs: In order to segregate the tonnage of storm debris from normal waste at the CCCs, the average yard waste and average garbage hauled to the Indian River County Landfill for the previous 6 months for all of the CCCs is included as an attachment which will be the basis for determining the impact of the storm debris. Any additional tonnage over the monthly average in the 2 months following the storm that is hauled to the Indian River County Landfill from the CCCs, shall be considered storm debris and shall be charged at the incremental rate stated below; provided, however, that such rate may be increased in the event of a change in market conditions. In order to convert the tonnage hauled to a yardage measurement, the appropriate conversion rate shall be: 1 cubic yard = 300 lbs. Cost for hauling additional tonnage from CCC to Indian River County Landfill: $17.00/cubic yard D) Landfill Equipment Costs: Republic Services will use commercially reasonable efforts to effectively and efficiently use all current equipment to manage excessive storm debris. Republic shall keep all current equipment in working order. SWDD is not responsible for additional equipment needed as a replacement for failure of equipment needed for normal operations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, renting equipment to provide incremental assistance may be required, but such equipment may not available in the immediate aftermath of a storm. If additional equipment is required and becomes available, Republic Services will rent such required additional equipment, and Indian River County will reimburse Republic Services for Republic Services' cost of rental of such additional equipment, without markup. Republic Services will also attempt to mobilize equipment from other Republic Services operating divisions, and Indian River County will reimburse Republic Services for any additional costs incurred by Republic Services for such mobilization and usage of equipment from other Republic Services operating divisions, without markup. Republic Services will notify and obtain written approval from Indian River County of any rental or mobilization of such additional equipment. Cost for Landfill Equipment mobilization and usage: to be determined by Republic Services, based on availability E) Landfill Additional Costs: In case of catastrophic damage, Republic Services may incur additional costs to operate the Indian River County Landfill, and such additional costs shall be reimbursed by Indian River County provided there is sufficient documentation and that Republic Services has notified and obtained written approval for these additional costs. Examples of such costs are: additional rock to shore up access roads to allow traffic flow to the Landfill waste reception area; additional costs to pump excessive leachate to not overwhelm the current system. In preparation for any catastrophic storm event, Republic Services can accumulate rock and cover at the Indian River County Landfill. If Indian River County elects to absorb costs for accumulation of rock and cover, the associated costs will be provided to the County for approval prior to purchase and accumulation. Landfill Additional Costs: to be determined by Republic Services, based on necessity. 5. Conceptual Closing / Opening Plan. The conceptual plan and timeline noted below are by way of example only, and are subject to change depending upon storm size/scope/severity and upon input from Republic Services and Indian River County. The safety of personnel, property, and equipment is Republic Services' top priority, and Republic Services acknowledges that Indian River County desires to re -open the Landfill and the CCCs as soon as possible after a storm. A) Pre -Storm. Upon the approach of a named storm, Republic Services and Indian River County will conduct daily conference calls as part of planning and preparation. These calls will take place at 3pm or a mutually agreed upon time. 1) Between 48-72 Hours Out a. Close Oslo and Fellsmere. b. Redeploy Oslo and Fellsmere staff to other CCCs to assist as necessary, allowing Republic Services employees to rotate out to prepare their families and homes. In addition, it allows Republic Services equipment to be used at other CCCs in preparation after Oslo and Fellsmere are cleaned and ready for post storm. c. Conduct PSA to inform residents and businesses. 11) Between 24-48 Hours Out a. Suspend all garbage and recycle collection. b. All haulers advised of anticipated Landfill closure so they can have their trucks dumped and ready for post storm clean up. III) Between 12-24 Hours Out a. All CCCs and Landfill closed to public. b.
