Request for Submittals

Owner-operated Semi-tractors and Equipment Operators

Exhibit A

1. General Information

The Madison Metropolitan Sewerage District’s Metrogro Program recycles liquid biosolids (sludge) to agricultural land as a valuable crop fertilizer. Biosolids are transported from the Nine Springs Wastewater Treatment Facility by semi-tractor/trailers to field application sites typically located within a 35 mile (one-way) hauling distance from the plant. At the field application site, the biosolids are transferred from the trailers to 12,000-gallon nurse tanks. Application equipment then removes the biosolids from the nurse tanks and injects the material into the soil. Alternatively, some of the trailers are set up to allow direct removal of biosolids from the trailer to the applicator, which then injects the biosolids into the soil. The Metrogro Program normally conducts recycling operations from early April through late November, with the highest level of activity generally occurring during April, May, August, September, October and early November.

The District is requesting submittals from contractors who wish to supply semi tractors and operators to pull District-owned trailers on an “as needed” basis. Submittals are also being requested from contractors to supply qualified persons on an “as needed” basis to operate District owned biosolids application vehicles. The District will review all submittals and develop contacts with the selected contractors.

2. Description of Work

Owner-operated Semi-tractors

When transporting biosolids to field application sites using owner/operator semi tractors, the contractor will be performing tasks normally associated with the transportation of biosolids in the District’s Metrogro program. These tasks include, but are not limited to the following: loading District owned trailers at the District’s loading facility (including connecting/disconnecting transfer hose and operating controls and valves at the loading facility), safe and respectful transport, unloading into a nurse tank at the field application site (including connecting/disconnecting transfer hoses and operating any controls or valves during the unloading process), completing and turning in trip tickets on a daily basis, assisting as necessary with the daily placement of traffic control sign at the field application sites, assisting as necessary with directing traffic around the unloading area while transferring the load into the nurse tank, moving and proper set up of the nurse tank, assisting with field setup activities including placement of nurse tanks, assisting with routine trailer maintenance, cleaning the trailer when appropriate (using cleaning supplies furnished by the District), and maintaining both loading and unloading sites in a clean and orderly fashion.

The District’s trailers are fully enclosed and designed for transport of a liquid material. The maximum trailer capacity is approximately 6,000 gallons, with a typical working capacity of approximately 5,800 gallons. The weight of a trailer loaded to its working volume would be approximately 63,000 pounds.

Trailer length could range from approximately 35 to 40 feet. The trailers are equipped with a pressure-vacuum transfer pump which is located at the front end of the trailer. The pump is used to assist with loading and unloading the trailer. The owner-operated semi-tractors must be equipped with a wet kit, which will be used to operate the pressure-vacuum transfer pump. The wet kit shall have a capacity of at least 17 gpm at 1000 rpm.

The District will supply two-way radios and will arrange for their installation in the contractor’s semi tractors for communication purposes. The District will be responsible for paying the monthly air time charges for the radios.

The owner-operated semi-tractors must meet all DOT safety and operational requirements. At the contractor’s expense each vehicle shall undergo a DOT inspection for the year that hauling occurs.

Documentation of a successful inspection must be supplied to the District before the vehicle will be allowed to participate in the program. The total and distributed weight of the semi-tractor/trailer combinations must allow for the trailer to legally carry its working capacity of approximately 5,800 gallons on the interstate highway system and state, county and local roads. It will be the contractors’ sole responsibility to ensure that his/her trucks and drivers are properly licensed in accordance with the law, including a valid Class A Commercial Driver’s License (CDL) with a tanker endorsement. The semis shall be inspected by the District Staff for proper hookups and operation with Metrogro trailers.

Equipment Operators

When operating a District-owned biosolids application vehicle, the contractor will be performing tasks associated with the application of biosolids to farmland in the District’s Metrogro program. These tasks include, but are not limited to, the following: loading biosolids into an application vehicle from a nurse tank or trailer (including connecting/disconnecting transfer hoses and operating controls at the applicator), operating the biosolids application vehicle in a safe and respectful manner, daily placement of traffic control sign at the field application sites, assisting with routine applicator maintenance, assisting with field setup activities including placement of nurse tanks, marking setbacks from homes and wells using information provided by the District, completing and turning in daily logs and/or trip tickets on a daily basis, assisting with providing District information to area homeowners and interested citizens on an “as needed” basis, cleaning the applicator when appropriate, and maintaining the field site in a clean and orderly fashion. The District’s application vehicles use a computerized nutrient management system; the ability to operate and input data into a computer system is a requirement of the applicator operator. The ability to measure distance using a range finder, and complete acreage and load calculations is required. Consistent and timely communication with Metrogro staff is crucial to success.

3. Hours of Work

The District will not guarantee a minimum number of hours or days worked under this contract. Actual days and hours worked will depend on weather conditions, land availability, volume of biosolids that need to be recycled and other factors. The contractor will be used on an “as needed” basis any time during the typical hauling season. The District will make reasonable attempts to schedule and utilize the contractor in an efficient manner. In the event of a morning rainout, if trucks are not cancelled by 5:15 am, contractors will be paid a minimum of two hours for that day.

Hauling will typically be limited to Monday through Friday, although Saturday and Sunday work will occur at various times during this contract. During the peak hauling season (spring and fall), workdays typically begin at 6:00 a.m., with the last load leaving the treatment plan between 4:00 and 6:30 p.m.

Contractor’s semi maintenance and fueling will not be done on the District’s time. However, fueling may be allowed on District time upon the direction of the Metrogro staff if there is waiting time to load or unload, or if equipment is being moved from site to site.

If the contractor is not able on any day to supply either the number of semi-tractors or operators that District management is expecting, the contractor must notify the District’s Metrogro staff as much in advance as possible, no later than 14 hours prior to start time. The Metrogro staff will work with other contractors to replace the semi-tractors or operators that the contractor is not able to supply.

4. Payment

Payment for contractor supplied owner-operated semi-tractors and for contractor supplied equipment operators will be made on a lump sum hourly basis that reflects all contractor costs associated with work and equipment requirements described under Section 2 of this request for submittals.

Payment will only be made for those hours spent performing the work described in Section 2 of this request. Payment will not be made for time spent by the contractor doing repair and maintenance activities on his/her semi-tractors, fueling, pre-trip inspection, traveling to/from the job site at the beginning/end of the workday, lunch breaks, or any other time which, in the District’s sole and absolute judgment, does not conform with the work anticipated under Section 2 of this request. The contractors’ employees shall submit trip tickets to the District daily in the manner designated by the Metrogro staff.

The trip tickets and/or daily log will include information on hours spent performing work described in Section 2 of this request, loads hauled or applied, and the farm/field to which each load was hauled or applied. The hours submitted by the contractor for payment are subject to the final approval of the District.

Payment will be made at the following hourly rates:

Owner-operated semi-tractor $127.45 per hour and fuel adjustments (see below)*

Equipment operator (operation of any District owned equipment) $58.76 per hour*

*Hourly rates are reviewed annually to verify they are competitive for the Madison area, and annual rate increases are based on the U.S.

Bureau of Labor Statistics Consumer Price Index 12-month percentage change for November of the preceding year.

Payment will be made on a bi-weekly basis. The contractor will submit an invoice to the District on a bi-weekly basis that reflects the hours worked in the previous two-week period. The invoice will be subject to District approval. The District will make payment to the contractor within twenty-one (21) days following District approval of the contractor’s bi-weekly invoice.

The above prices were determined when the price of diesel fuel was about $3.40 per gallon. If the price increases to $3.60 per gallon, the rate for provide owner/operator semi tractors will be increased $1.00 per hour. The rate will increase by an additional $1.00 per hour for each twenty (20) cent per gallon increase above $3.60 per gallon. If the price of diesel fuel drops to $3.20 per gallon, the rate for providing owner/operator semi tractors will be decreased $1.00 per hour. The rate will decrease by an additional $1.00 per hour for each twenty (20) cent decrease below $3.20 per gallon. The fuel price used to determine whether an increase or decrease in rates will be applied will be the price per gallon for diesel fuel at the U.S. Energy Information Addition (eia) using Midwest (PADD2) diesel fuel price at the beginning of the bi-weekly pay period.

5. Facilities Available for Contractor Use

Space will be provided at the job site for vehicle parking. The contractor will be allowed to use the District’s toilet and lunch room facilities. Maintenance bays (including equipment, tools and supplies), telephones and other facilities or equipment are not available for use by the contractor unless authorized by the District on a case by case basis.

6. Drug and Alcohol Testing

The contractor shall participate in a DOT-approved drug and alcohol testing program and provide appropriate documentation to the District. All operators of the vehicles used in this contract will be subject to the drug and alcohol testing program and the contractor will provide the District with any information required under this program. The drug and alcohol testing program has several components including: 1) pre-employment testing, 2) random testing and 3) reasonable suspicion testing, 4) post-accident testing, 5) return to duty testing and 6) follow-up testing. All operators will be required to pass a pre-employment drug and alcohol test, and appropriate documentation must be provided to the District prior to operating a vehicle under this contract. Operators who refuse to comply with any provision of the drug and alcohol testing program will not be allowed to perform work under this contract. The contractor acknowledges that the District has the authority to immediately remove a driver from the job and to request that the driver submit to drug and alcohol testing for “reasonable suspicion”.

14. Review of Submittals and Selection of Contractors

The District intends to accept enough submittals to provide for a total of nineteen (19) owner-operated semi-tractors and four (4) equipment operators. To provide for management operations by contractors, each contractor may submit proposals for supplying no more than four (4) semi-tractors. Submittals that include a combination of owner-operated semi-tractors and qualified equipment operators to operate District equipment will be given priority. However, submittals which include only supplying owner-operated semi-tractors or only supplying equipment operators will also be accepted. The District will review submittals and select submittals based on the following criteria:

a. Contractor’s past experience working with the Metrogro program

b. Experience of the individual(s) proposed as equipment operators to operate the application vehicle(s), and the experience of this individual(s) with the Metrogro program

c. The ability to supply both semi-tractors and equipment operators

d. The ability of the contractor to supply acreage that will be harvested for wheat and be made available for Metrogro application in late summer and early fall

e. The amount of suitable land that the contractor could supply for Metrogro application during the hauling season

Prior to review of submittals the District will determine a system that will be used to select the order in which contractors will be asked to supply semi-tractors and equipment operators during the hauling season. Determining how many submittals to accept and how many vehicles to be accepted from each contractor will be the sole responsibility of the District. A goal of this selection process will be to provide as much flexibility to the District as possible.
