Contractor <br />shall take title to the Recyclable Materials upon placement in the Recycling Container by residents <br />and shall be responsible for the sale of such recyclable materials and all of the proceeds of the sales. <br />Recyclable Materials shall be property of Contractor. <br />No uncontaminated recyclable materials collected in this program shall be landfilled. Landfilling <br />or incinerating recyclables shall result in a penalty of $250 per incident of unauthorized disposal to <br />a landfill or incinerator. <br />County has arrangements with the Town of Chapel Hill to provide a loading dock and temporary <br />storage at the Town of Chapel Hill Public Works Facility located at 1099 Airport Road. Contractor <br />may, with explicit permission of County and the Town of Chapel Hill, make use of this facility in a <br />manner cooperative with other users. Contractor, along with other site users, shall be responsible <br />for keeping this area clean, safe and free of blowing trash or debris from its operation. No more <br />than eight roll -off containers for the storage of recyclable materials belonging to Contractor shall <br />accumulate at this site. If more than eight containers accumulate, County or the Town of Chapel <br />Hill may remove the containers at the expense of Waste Industries after 24 hours written or faxed <br />notice to Contractor. <br />Contractor may be asked to occasionally provide County continuous access (defined below) to the <br />roll -off containers used to collect and temporarily store recyclable materials at the loading dock <br />facility located at 1099 Airport Road. When and if deemed necessary County may use said roll -off <br />containers to deposit recyclables collected by its commercial recycling program. Contractor shall <br />take possession of and title to said materials at the time said materials are deposited into the roll -off <br />containers by County. Contractor shall enjoy any revenue gained from the marketing of said <br />materials. <br />Continuous access to the roll -off containers shall be defined as the containers being placed in a <br />position that allows County employees access to said containers from the elevated loading dock, <br />enabling materials to be dumped into said roll -off containers from above. Contractor will cooperate <br />with County and make sure that the needed roll -off containers are placed such a fashion as to allow <br />County employees and County collection vehicles access to said containers from 7 AM until 5 PM <br />daily. Contractor will keep these roll -off containers in such condition as to ensure that they have <br />capacity to accept the materials generated by County. Contractor will be allowed two (2) hours to <br />remove said containers for transporting the contents to market. If said roll -off containers are not in <br />the specified position or do not have capacity to accept materials from County, then County may <br />levy penalties equal to $25 per hour for each hour between 7 AM and 5 PM that the roll -off <br />containers are either not in the specified position or do not have capacity to accept materials <br />generated by County (two (2) hour grace period excepted). Any resultant penalties may be <br />deducted from the cost of service for this contract for the month in which the event took place. <br />County will document any event resulting in penalties being levied and will notify Contractor's <br />representative by telephone at the time that fines begin accumulating. <br />Failure to clean the temporary storage site within two (2) working days of written or faxed <br />notification by County may result in County hiring a service to clean the area with the costs of the <br />service to be deducted from the following month's invoice. Cost of cleaning service shall not <br />exceed $250.00 without due notification of Contractor. <br />Contractor will assist County with costs for any necessary repairs or improvements to the concrete <br />pads and/or drainage systems that have been built at the temporary loading dock.
