2-PROTECTED INFORMATION REQUEST FORM.docx

This is a Protected Information Request Form issued by the City of West Jordan, Utah, for use in conjunction with a Request for Proposals (RFP) for Solid Waste and Recycling Services. The form provides vendors with a mechanism to designate specific information within their proposals as protected or confidential under the Government Records Access and Management Act (GRAMA), codified in Utah Code Ann. Section 63G-2-101 et seq. Vendors are required to clearly identify and describe any sections for which they claim business confidentiality protection and list those sections on the form. The City reserves the right to classify any proposal submitted that does not comply with GRAMA requirements as a public record without further vendor discussion and may decline to designate information as protected if vendors use blanket confidentiality claims or fail to adequately specify their confidentiality requests.

The underlying RFP solicits proposals from qualified contractors to provide comprehensive residential solid waste collection, recycling, and related disposal services for approximately 27,500 residential accounts as well as City facilities, parks, and City-sponsored programs and events. The selected contractor must furnish all labor, equipment, vehicles, supervision, materials, and other resources necessary to perform the services as described in the RFP. The form itself does not contain specific pricing terms, set-asides, award dates, contract terms, or renewal options; these details would be contained within the primary RFP document.
