5. at are the parameters for down time by the firm, and what are the <br /> penalties? <br /> The maximum amount of allowable down time by a firm without penalty is an <br /> accumulation of twenty (20) days in the first six (6) month period, and an <br /> accumulation of fifteen (15) days thereafter . Down time is defined as: when the <br /> firm has not processed the green waste received at French Camp Landfill in excess <br /> of the allowable storage time as defined by the Local Enforcement Agency (LEA). <br /> Within the twenty (20) day period, the City will not pay the firm for tonnage <br /> received at French Camp Landfill. The selected firm must transport the stockpiled <br /> material back over the scale and to the working face of the landfill at no cost to <br /> the City. The City will bear the cost of landfilling the green waste material, <br /> which includes all regulatory fees associated with the operation of the landfill. Any <br /> materials taken from the stockpile area and back over the scale will be deducted <br /> from the monthly payment. <br /> If the firm exceeds the twenty (20) day limit in the first six month period, or the <br /> fifteen (15) day period thereafter, the City will not pay the firm for green waste <br /> received. Also, the City will be responsible for all landfill costs, including <br /> regulatory fees. In addition, a penalty of five hundred dollars ($500.00) per day <br /> will be assessed every day that the firm is not in compliance. <br /> Since this is a one year demonstration project and it is critical that all operations <br /> comply with facility permit regulations, the City will look favorably on proposals <br /> that include contingency plans in lieu of down time. <br /> 6.
