The scope of work encompasses tire removal, transportation, and processing of waste tires from the collection site to Wheelabrator Ridge Energy's facility in Auburndale, Florida, with completion required within two days of trailer removal to control mosquito breeding. The task assignment amount is $11,550.00 as a fixed fee for loading and transportation of 7 trailers and processing of 105 tons of passenger tires, with an additional cost reimbursement amount of $11,550.00. The performance period runs from October 21, 2016, through June 30, 2017.

A DEP Site Supervisor is assigned to oversee daily operations, and all tires must be weighed at certified scales before transport, with invoicing based on the lower of two net weights obtained.
