7. Contractor will be responsible for maintaining records of quantities of materials

Scope of Services
Construction & Demolition Wood Waste Grinding & Marketing
New Hanover County Landfill
October 2006
The New Hanover County Department of Environmental Management (Owner) desires
to reduce the amount of waste placed into the New Hanover County Landfill. It has been
determined that a large percentage of waste placed into the landfill consists of waste
produced by construction and demolition (C&D) activities. Of that C&D waste, a large
portion has been determined to be wood that otherwise could be used beneficially. In
order to recycle that portion of the waste stream, certain processing will be necessary.
The following is a Scope of Services that is prepared to allow for the grinding and
marketing of clean, sorted wood waste at the landfill.
Owner's Responsibilities:
1. Owner will sort C&D wood waste based on Contractor's specifications. Current
projections indicate that one thousand (1,000) to four thousand (4,000) tons of clean
wood waste can be sorted each year using intended methods.
2. Owner will schedule processing with Contractor at least ten (10) days before the
desired processing date, and stockpile enough clean wood for at Ieast one day's
operating capacity for Contractor's grinder.
3. Owner will provide Contractor with an area at the landfill for grinding.
4. Owner will provide scales for Contractor to weigh the outgoing processed material.
Contrector's Responsibilities:
1. Contractor will provide alI labor, equipment, tools, supplies, maintenance and other
items necessary to complete this Scope of Services.
2. Contractor will provide Owner with detaited specifications for acceptable wood for
grinding, including percentage of allowable out throws.
3. Contractor will make a reasonable effort leave grinding area clean and organized
after each scheduled grind.
4. Contractor will haul away wood chips for recycling within a reasonable amount of
time as determined by Owner.
5. Contractor will be responsible for operating in accordance with all applicable permits
and conditions of those permits including operational plans.
6. Prior to commencing operatibns, all personnel will be trained in accordance with all
rules and regulations pertaining to waste processing and screening. Contractor must
sign and return New Hanover County Environmental Management Contractor
Compliance Requirements. Contractor must provide to NHC DEM a Health and
Safety Plan.
7. Contractor will be responsible for maintaining records of quantities of materials
processed and recycled. These records are to be submitted to Owner after each
grind.
8. Contractor understands that the primary function of this site is to operate as a
municipal solid waste landfill and that the grinding operation is not to interfere with
the routine operation of the landfill.

Subject wood grinding contract
Hola Becky!
How's life in the big city? Out here across the river it's as quiet as the dew on a cool winter's morning (I'm
trying to sound more Southern ... is it working for me?).
Anyway, my wood grinding contract with Diversified Biomass (contract #04-0297) has expired and I need
a new one. I've attached a scope of services. There was no official bid process because I already know
that they are the cheapest deal anywhere. Here are some other pertinent details:
Term: from now until June 30, 2009
Price:$9 per ton through June 30, 2007. $10 after that.
Account: Environmental Management Landfill Contracted Services 70080200 700000
Insurance: I presume that the requirements spelled out in the last contract will still hold true. I tried to call
Ann and Tiffany but they were not in. :(
Address: Diversified Biomass Company d/b/a American Property Experts, 606 Sunnyvale Drive,
Wilmingtan 28412
Contact: Jason Thompson, 202-0848
If you need anything else just whistle. 'Til then you can find me on the front porch swing with my'shine
and my dawg (any better?).
