ORANGE COUNTY <br />REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL FOR PERMANENT HOUSEHOLD HAZARDOUS WASTE AND <br />CONDITIONALLY EXEMPT SMALL QUANTITY GENERATOR PROGRAM AND SERVICES <br />Orange County, N.C. on behalf of its Department of Solid Waste Management (hereinafter "County ") is <br />seeking proposals for a private contractor (hereinafter "provider") to operate and staff two collection sites for <br />the County's permanent Household Hazardous Waste (hereinafter "HHW ") collection centers located at 1514 <br />Eubanks Road in Chapel Hill, NC and a collection and disposal service at the County's Solid Waste <br />Convenience Center (SWCC) located at 3700 Walnut Grove Church Road, Hurdle Mills, North Carolina (about <br />14 miles North of the existing site in Chapel Hill, which is about five miles North of Hillsborough, NC). <br />The collection center located at Eubanks Road in Chapel Hill will accept residential HHW as well as hazardous <br />waste from Conditionally Exempt Small Quantity Generators (CESQG) including participating local <br />governments and public school systems. The collection center at Walnut Grove will only accept residential <br />HHW because businesses are not permitted to use the Solid Waste Convenience Centers where the collection <br />will be located. <br />The County seeks proposals from private industry household hazardous waste collection experts to provide <br />prompt service through efficient collection while not sacrificing service standards. Orange County seeks to <br />increase cost effectiveness, and maintain a high level of service to participants, yet remain safe and compliant <br />with all Federal, State and local household hazardous waste regulations. Orange County has been a proactive <br />partner with its Provider in the operation of the Orange County HHW program and will expect to work closely <br />with the Provider's staff. <br />Page 4 <br />HHW RFP # 6183 <br />
