12 <br />WASTE INDUSTRIES www.wasteindustries. com <br />\� 148 Stone Park Court I Durham, NC 27703 <br />January 16, 2014 <br />Mr. David Cannell <br />Purchasing Agent <br />Orange County <br />200 South Cameron Street <br />Hillsborough, NC 27278 <br />Dear Mr. Cannell, <br />The people of Waste Industries truly appreciate the opportunity to propose recycling services <br />for the residents of Orange County. Our company began operations in 1970 and has become the <br />7th largest waste and recycling services provider in the nation. Importantly, our collection work <br />is concentrated in large measure throughout the southeastern and mid Atlantic US, <br />predominantly in the Carolinas because we started in the Triangle area, home to our corporate <br />headquarters. Our people are proud of our heritage, which includes the current multi -year <br />partnership with Orange County. We are eager to continue that mutually beneficial <br />relationship. <br />Waste Industries' impressive growth allows us to offer unsurpassed resources and expertise <br />ready to exceed your expectations. While our size gives us the flexibility to respond to larger, <br />critical needs, we are agile and focused enough on the details to bring timely remedy to any <br />daily problem. Our company has many long -term municipal and county contracts that <br />demonstrate not only our commitment to first rate service, but our customers' belief that we <br />achieve our rigorous goals. Our professional personnel are the source of our success. Living <br />locally, we count on our employees to bring energy and dedication to your community. <br />Of special note, it is our intent to utilize compressed natural gas powered collection vehicles <br />for this project. We have committed a substantial financial investment in this growing <br />technology to reduce our environmental impact. The immediate effect will cut our combined <br />carbon footprint as we go about our daily routine on the County's behalf. We have thoroughly <br />reviewed the details of the service listed in the RFP and are completely prepared to perform <br />the work as prescribed. <br />It is our fervent hope that this offer is attractive enough to County officials that Waste <br />Industries' representatives would be invited to present our credentials during further <br />discussions. We look forward to renewing our partnership. Our folks promise to work hard on <br />behalf of the citizens of Orange County. Thank you for your time and consideration in this <br />matter. <br />Sincerely, <br />
