Re: Waste Tire Recycling
Dear Ms Baita
August 26, 1999
Thank you for the opportunity to renew our waste tire recycling agreement for the
1999/2000 fiscal year. As requested I am writing to detail the terms of our current
agreement, which will be continued into the coming year without modification.
1. Florida Tire Recycling will provide two enclosed over -the -road trailers to be
placed at the tire area at your landfill site. As waste tires are received, they
would be separated and loaded as follows:
a. Derimmed passenger and light truck tires up to 825 x 20 in size would
be loaded in one trailer.
b. Derimmed truck ties between 825 x 20 and up to 1200 x 20 in size
would be loaded into the second trailer.
c. Rimmed passenger, light truck and truck ties up to 1200 x 20 would
be placed in a separate pile for collection as needed. (See Item 3,
below.)
2. When a trailer is full, FTR will dispatch an over -the -road tractor to drop an
empty trailer and pick up the full one.
J. When a load of rimmed tires has accumulated, FTR will dispatch an open
topped, walking floor trailer (100 cubic yard capacity.) County personnel
using a front-end loader will load the trailer.
4. FTR will not be obligated to take any tires larger than 1200 x 20 in size.

5. The tipping fee at FTR's Port St. Lucie waste tire processing facility for loads
from Indian River County is $60.00 per ton with a minimum of $600.00 per
load. The fee applies to all tires received whether rimmed or derimmed.
6. Transportation from Indian River County to Port St. Lucie will be an
additional $150.00 per load whether transported by an enclosed trailer or by
open -top walking floor trailer.
7. For rimmed tires only, there will be an additional charge of $150.00 per bad
for derimming by FFR at the Port St. Lucie facility. Scrap metal resulting
from the derimming will be the property of FTR.
g. The County will agree to do the following:
a. To use its best efforts to k:ep the waste ties free from contamination
by dirt, sand or other waste products.
b. To load the enclosed trailers at or near their maximum capacity.
9. The County's scale shall be used for determining weights. Loads will be
invoiced as collected. Invoices are payable in thirty days.
10. All waste ties collected by FTR are recycled in such products as mulch, light
weight aggregate, crumb rubber feedstock (for use in asphalt roads, injection
molding, etc.), playground surfacing material and Tire Derived Fuel.
11. The terms of this agreement shall be for one year from the date executed by the
Indian River Board of County Commissioners chairperson as indicated below,
unless cancelled by either party with thirty (30) days written notice. This
agreement may be extended from year top year with mutual consent.
Thank you for the opportunity to continue serving the citizens of Indian River County.
