DocuSign Envelope ID:60890E67-6F1D-48BF-9BD4-7E57F52CDE30 <br /> Section 2 <br /> Statement of Understanding <br /> Project Understanding <br /> Orange County,with a population of 130,000 residents, is part of the Research Triangle of North <br /> Carolina's Piedmont region. The municipalities of Chapel Hill, Carrboro, Hillsborough, and Mebane are <br /> located within the County, as well as the University of North Carolina—Chapel Hill (UNC). <br /> Single stream recycling is available to County residents and businesses. Curbside residential collection is <br /> provided weekly by contract haulers in Hillsborough, Carrboro, and Chapel Hill (urban curbside recycling) <br /> and every other week in the unincorporated areas of the County(rural curbside recycling). The County <br /> also provides 4 unstaffed and 5 staffed drop-off locations for single stream recycling, as well as <br /> collection from commercial and multi-family properties and Chapel Hill, Carrboro, and Orange County <br /> Schools. UNC collects single stream recyclables in outdoor carts and walkways. <br /> KCI is extremely familiar with the solid waste operations in the County, having conducted its most recent <br /> two-season WCS in 2016/2017. During this study, KCI sampled waste streams from several different <br /> residential and commercial collection programs, including rural county, urban municipal, county drop- <br /> off sites, private haulers, and UNC. KCI coordinated the routing of numerous trucks to the City of <br /> Durham Transfer Station, where the sort took place, and worked with the transfer station's private <br /> operator. We successfully completed the study and produced accurate and reliable results. <br /> The County and UNC are now seeking an RCS conducted on all single stream recyclables they manage. <br /> This consists of the following 11 programs, many of which were included in KCI's recent WCS study for <br /> the County: <br /> 1) Urban Residential Curbside <br /> 2) Rural Residential Curbside <br /> 3) Unstaffed Recycling Sites <br /> 4) Staffed Recycling Sites <br /> 5) Commercial <br /> 6) Multifamily Residential <br /> 7) Orange County Schools <br /> 8) Chapel Hill Schools <br /> 9) UNC Residence Halls <br /> 10) UNC Outdoor Carts <br /> 11) UNC Walkways <br /> The purpose of this study is to understand the composition of recyclables managed by the County and <br /> UNC in each of these programs, as well as to identify and quantify the amount and types of <br /> contamination. <br /> KCI also understands that the County is currently in the process of seeking a contractor to process its <br /> single stream recyclables. Because of KCI's experience both with conducting RCSs and developing and <br /> negotiating processing contracts for local governments, we will ensure the study results can be used by <br /> the County to meet the needs of a future recyclables processing service procurement and/or contract <br /> negotiations. <br /> kessler consulting inc. <br /> Proposal 2018\Orange Co Proposal-final 3 innovative waste solutions <br />
