Title
Authorizing the expenditure of $48,888 from the Capital Improvement Fund to Geo. Gradel Company for the emergency repair of the leachate collection system at the Hoffman Road Landfill; waiving the competitive procurement provisions of TMC Chapter 187; and declaring an emergency.
Body
SUMMARY & BACKGROUND:
The leachate collection system, at the Hoffman Road Landfill, has old deteriorated infrastructure that failed. Emergency services were required in December 2019 to complete temporary repairs to piping that broke and prevented leachate pumping activities at the landfill. These emergency repairs did not hold up due to the deteriorated condition of the piping, which has left the leachate collection system only partially functioning and unreliable with minimum contingencies. The leachate collection system was scheduled to be repaired by Geo. Gradel Co. on February 10, 2020. Complete failure of the leachate collection system will result in a leachate back-up at the landfill, regulatory noncompliance conditions, and Ohio EPA violations. Because of these reasons, this is deemed an emergency.
Toledo Municipal Code (TMC) 187.20 allows for the waiver of competitive bids and for the emergency work to be undertaken. Furthermore, TMC 187.20 requires Council to be informed of the emergency and for authorization to pay the repair. Sufficient funds are available within the Solid Waste CIP budget to pay for this emergency repair.
