About this file

This is an Addendum #1 and Version #2 notice issued by the State of California Department of State Hospitals for Metropolitan State Hospital in Norwalk, California, addressing modifications to Invitation for Bid (IFB) #26-20019-000 for Medical Waste Disposal Services. The primary modification removes the California Department of Food and Agriculture (CDFA) Weighmaster License as a minimum qualification requirement, as it was determined to be unnecessarily restrictive and limiting to bidder participation. The contractor shall provide all personnel, labor, tools, supplies, materials, equipment, insurance, licenses, and a properly equipped service vehicle to perform medical waste pickup, transport, and disposal services, including biohazardous waste, sharps, non-hazardous waste, hazardous RCRA pharmaceutical waste, and trace chemotherapy waste. All costs related to taxes, permits, inspection fees, and transportation are the responsibility of the contractor.

The current contract is held by MediWaste Disposal, LLC, with total expenditures of $27,237.30 as of the addendum date of April 28, 2026. Recent invoicing demonstrates service costs ranging from approximately $657.55 in January 2026, with rates structured per pound for biohazardous materials at $0.26 per pound, pharmaceutical waste at $0.85 per pound, and hazardous RCRA waste at $420.00 per container, plus manifest fees and environmental fees. The addendum includes a Questions and Answers section addressing bidder inquiries regarding the current contractor, contract history, and the rationale for removing the weighmaster license requirement. Additional Questions and Answers Version 3 were subsequently issued on May 1, 2026, indicating ongoing clarifications for prospective bidders.
