Re: Waste Tire Recycling
Dear Mr Baita
Thank you for the opportunity to renew our waste tire recycling agreement for the 2000/2001 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 tires 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 tires 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.
3. 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 load for derimming
by FTR at the Port St. Lucie facility. Scrap metal resulting from the derimming will be the
property of FTR.
8. There will be a fuel surcharge of 5.0% of the total cost (tipping fee, transportation and
derimming costs) so long as the cost for less than truckload bulk delivery of diesel fuel
remains above $1.35 per gallon.

9. The County will agree to do the following:
a. To use its best efforts to keep the waste tires free from contamination by dirt, sand or
other waste products.
b. To load the enclosed trailers at or near their maximum capacity.
10. The County's scale shall be used for determining weights. Loads will be invoiced as
collected. Invoices are payable in thirty days.
11. All waste fires 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.
12. The County may also elect to deliver the waste tires in county -owned vehicles to FTR's
facility in Port St. Lucie. The disposal fee would be $60.00 per net ton. The County would
continue to segregate tires by size. Tires will not exceed 1200 x 20 in size. Tires with rims
will be segregated and delivered separately. There will be a surcharge of $15.00 per ton for
loads of rimmed tires. Scrap metal resulting from the derimming will be the property of FTR.
13. The terms of this agreement shall be for one year beginning September 21, 2000 and expiring
September 30, 2001 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.
