This is an Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) Authorization Form issued by the Clay County Clerk of Court and Comptroller in Florida for the Disaster Debris Removal Services contract opportunity. The form enables Clay County to process electronic payments to qualified contractors selected to provide comprehensive debris removal, reduction, and disposal services following disaster-related events. Contractors authorized under this contract will collect and remove eligible debris from County rights-of-way and public properties, with private property debris removal performed only when specifically authorized by the County's Contracting Officer Representative. Historical debris volumes from recent hurricanes have exceeded preliminary estimates of 100,000 cubic yards from Hurricane Milton and several hundred thousand cubic yards from Hurricane Helene, though actual quantities under the contract remain unknown and may fluctuate substantially. All work must be performed systematically and efficiently in compliance with OSHA Safety Standards and applicable federal, state, and local regulations without interfering with ongoing disaster recovery operations.

The EFT Authorization Form requires contractors to provide complete banking information, including financial institution details, account type, routing number, and account number, to facilitate electronic fund transfers from Clay County. Contractors must maintain current account information and notify the County's Comptroller Department immediately of any account closures or changes. The authorization remains in effect until the contractor submits written cancellation to the Comptroller Department. Contractors are directed to submit all inquiries regarding the Request for Bids through the designated question and answer portal and are strictly prohibited from contacting County Board members, employees, management, legal counsel, Evaluation Committee members, or County agents regarding the solicitation during the Request for Bid Period.
