Recommendation Concerning Saufley Field Landfill Closure and Stormwater Improvement Project - Amy Lovoy, Management and Budget Services Department Director
That the Board award an Indefinite Quantity, Indefinite Delivery Unit Price Contract, PD 10-11.082, Saufley Field Landfill Closure and Stormwater Improvement Project, to Panhandle Grading & Paving, Inc., for the amount not to exceed $5,996,026, for the base bid and alternate "D" and authorize the County Administrator to sign all documents.
[Funding: Fund 401 Solid Waste, Cost Center 230316 Object Code 56301] |
| BACKGROUND: |
An invitation to bid was advertised in the Pensacola News Journal on September 29, 2011, and bids were received on November 10, 2011, from 6 vendors and 1 "no bid'. Panhandle Grading & Paving, Inc. is the low bidder. The total project amount calculated using the unit prices of the low bidder at the initially estimated quantities resulted in a total project cost of $7,054,038.70 which is over the budgeted amount. In order to stay within the budget; the project will be based on 221,220 cubic yards of material removed and disposed of in a permitted, lined, Class I, Subtitle D facility versus 275,000 cubic yards of material removed. This change will result in approximatly three (3) foot increase in the closed elevation from what was previously represented to the Board of County Commissioners. A revised cross-section is attached.
The project will complete the closure of the Saufley Field Road Construction and Demolition Debris Landfill by excavating, transporting and disposing of 221,220 cubic yards of waste, 200,000 cubic yards will go to the Perdido Landfill without cost to achieve design grades for the existing side slopes at the facility. Approximately 21,220 cubic yards will be disposed of in a commercial Permitted, lined, Class I, Subtitle D facility. The Saufely Field Road Landfill (site) is an approximately 23 acre inactive landfill located in Bellview, Florida, that was operated as a construction and demolition debris (C&DD) landfill beginning in 1990. The site has been subject to complaints and regulatory enforcement actions stemming from odors and other issues reported by nearby residents beginning in the fall of 2005. The site was ordered to close in 2007, but closure requirements were not met. The majority of the waste at the site is covered by a soil layer of varying thickness (this soil layer is herein referred to as the Intermediate cover soil). The original owner abandoned the site in 2008. Escambia County (County) Board of Commissioners approved the acquisition and closure of the site by the County in March 2010. The County entered into an agreement with the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) in 2010 to develop and construct a closure system for the site as well as address the post-closure care requirements in accordance with Rule 62-701, Florida Administrative Code (FAC).
