Project Title

White River National Forest Vault Toilet Waste Pumping Service – Eagle/Holy Cross & Dillon Ranger Districts

General Information

1.0 Background and Purpose

This contract is to provide septic pumping service of nineteen (19) vaults at fourteen (14) US Forest Service managed recreation sites located in Eagle and Summit Counties, Colorado as identified in the attached.

Objectives:

• Provide septic pumping service for 19 vaults at 14 US Forest Service managed recreation sites located in Eagle, and Summit Counties, Colorado as identified in the attached Schedule of Items.

• During pumping, the vaults should be cleaned as thoroughly as possible to help prevent the production of odors.

Service should notify USFS when this pumping occurs.

• Humans are free from unhealthy exposure to human waste after toilet pumping.

The 14 recreation sites contain a total of 19 1000 gallon vault toilets. All vaults need to be pumped when they reach 80% capacity, with 90% of the vault content removed. Generally, the vaults will require at least one (1) pumping per year, but some vaults will be pumped multiple times a year.

All vault waste shall be disposed of at a commercial treatment facility off National Forest Lands. Provide the quantity of volume pumped for at each site and note any discrepancies or abnormalities (cracks, chips, vandalism, or broken hatch) at the vault sites.

The toilet vaults require pumping during the summer season which usually runs from May 1st through November 30th annually, so contents do not freeze. Pumps may occur outside this timeframe based on temperatures.
