ORS will utilize collection equipment and containers which are suitable for the job given the <br /> amount of material collected and the logistical considerations of each collection location. In <br /> general, ORS shall provide clean,labeled fiber or plastic drums for collection of materials and <br /> shall transport all materials collected in a closed-body vehicle in a manner which will prevent <br /> littering from the vehicle and in a manner which will prevent hazard to life,health,and property <br /> of the County and the society at large and in accordance within all local, state, and federal laws <br /> and regulations. ORS agrees to operate this program in a manner consistent with vehicle safety, <br /> fire safety, and good housekeeping practices. <br /> 6. ORS agrees that collection containers shall have clean,undamaged exteriors, and be clearly <br /> labeled as to contents. If the collection capacity at a specified service location exceeds that of the <br /> containers provided by ORS,the County can request that ORS provide additional containers at <br /> the location,or the County may adjust the collection schedule to allow for more frequent <br /> collections. If the County, for aesthetic or other reasons, would like to furnish alternative <br /> collection containers,these shall be negotiated with ORS. Alternative collection containers will <br /> be provided at the expense of the County or at the expense of the management of the service <br /> location. ORS will not deny reasonable requests for use of alternative collection containers <br /> which are similar in shape and size to the standard fiber drums. <br /> ORS can, at its option, with agreement by the management at any affected service location and <br /> County Solid Waste Programs Manager, increase the collection capacity at a particular location, <br /> for a particular material in a logical fashion when such expansion shall permit a more efficient <br /> collection schedule for all materials being collected from that particular site. This collection <br /> capacity increase may take place provided that the capacity increase does not interfere with <br /> County operations. <br /> 7.
