c. In those instances where containers of hazardous property are placed into a larger outer container and the interior packaging is either all small containers as defined above, or a mix of different sizes, some being small containers as defined above, then the entire item (interior packaging and its outer container) shall be assigned to the appropriate small container HIN.
d. The contractor shall accept the Government's HIN assignment as a non-small container item unless the contractor demonstrates to the COR prior to removal from the Government facility that the item(s) does meet the definition of a small container.
e. If the contractor discovers a small container(s) packaged with other items not classified as small containers, the Government reserves the right to:
(1) Assign all the property, including the larger outer container, under the appropriate small container HIN;
or,
(2) Remove the small containers of hazardous property from the larger outer container, delete the small container items’ weight from the task order, and reduce the containerized HIN’s weight appropriately; or,
(3) Remove the small containers of hazardous property from the larger outer container, re-HIN the small container items separately as small containers on the same task order, and reduce the containerized HIN’s weight appropriately.
f. If the contractor elects to package EPA/DOT compatible items in the same container in order to facilitate recycling/disposal then the contractor must provide an inclusive packing list showing each item and its respective quantity. This list shall be placed outside the outermost container. A copy of the packing list must be attached to the manifest. Contractor furnished over-pack containers and packing materials will not be included in the total weight calculations for payment purposes.

1.2.3 STATEMENT ON CONTAINERS
a. The Government does not warrant that the drums or containers are suitable for transportation in accordance with DOT regulations for removal from the pickup site. The offeror is cautioned to ascertain and assess the need for overpacking or recontainerizing based on the site visit. The Government will not provide repackaging materials. The contractor will not be reimbursed separately for repackaging expenses and should include these charges in their disposal pricing.
b. When overpacking of containers is required the contractor will use appropriate equipment to place the container into the outside/overpack container. The inner container shall be kept in an upright position.
Overpack containers used for liquids will be marked with directional arrows indicating the upright position of the inner container.
1.2.4 GOVERNMENT EQUIPMENT AND PERSONNEL
The Government shall not furnish any equipment or personnel to assist the contractor in the performance of the contractor’s responsibilities under the contract. The contractor understands than any such offers of assistance are unauthorized, and the Contractor shall not accept any such offers. The only exception is the use of Government owned loading equipment (paragraph 1.2.6), and Government owned scales (paragraph 1.2.7) and where management services are applicable.
1.2.5 TREATMENT OF HAZARDOUS WASTE ON GOVERNMENT FACILITY
a. Treatment of hazardous waste (including solidification) on Government facilities is not permitted.
Treatment is defined as any process which meets the definition of treatment as set forth in applicable local, state, and Federal (including 40 CFR 260.10) laws and regulations.
PAGE 10 OF 52 PAGESCONTINUATION SHEET REFERENCE NO. OF DOCUMENT BEING CONTINUED:
b. The contractor shall not drain and/or flush PCB items at Government installations. Draining will be allowed only to prevent leaking and to meet DOT regulations.
c. Treatment, disposal, or release of gas (other than inert) to the atmosphere on Government premises is not permitted by this contract. The contractor may perform gas extraction for other than inert gas cylinders at the pickup location using self-contained apparatus. This apparatus shall emit no gas into the atmosphere, and purge the entire cylinder contents into a closed receiver for transport to a recycling or disposal site.
1.2.6 LOADING
a. The contractor is responsible for loading, including furnishing all the equipment necessary for loading.
Unless otherwise specified, the Government will not load at any location.
b. Unless otherwise provided in the contract, loading will not be performed on Saturdays, Sundays, Federal holidays, or any day that the installation where the items are located is closed. Where it is provided that the Government will load, the Government will make the initial placement of the item on conveyance(s) furnished by the contractor and the initial placement on the contractor’s conveyance shall be as determined by the Government. Unless otherwise provided in the contract, the Government will not block, shock, brace, lash, band, or in any other manner secure the cargo on such conveyance(s) furnished by the contractor.
1.2.7 WEIGHING OF PROPERTY
The contractor shall weigh all property before removal. An authorized Government representative will witness all weighing that occurs on site. The weight, agreed upon by both the contractor and the Government representative at the time of removal, will be the basis for payment to the contractor. Unsubstantiated charges for subsequent increases in weight, after removal from Government custody, will be the responsibility of the contractor.
a. Bulk Items
(1) Bulk items will be measured by one of the following methods. The method used will be whichever is most accurate and agreed upon by the contractor and the Government representative:
(i) Actual weight using Government scales.
(ii) Actual weight using commercial scales.
(iii) Calculated weight. As an alternative to actual weighing, the weight of bulk shipments may be computed, provided that the specific gravity of the material is known and the volume actually picked up is determined.
For example, 2,000 gallons of liquid with a specific gravity of 1.4 = calculated weight of 23,344 pounds.
(2,000 x 1.4 x 8.337, where one gallon of water weighs 8.337 pounds). Specific gravity will be obtained from a waste profile sheet.
(2) For either "actual weight" method, the vehicle will be weighed both before and after loading. For bulk shipments, where Government scales are not available or operable, the use of commercial scales is authorized.
The contractor will arrange for and incur all expenses of weighing property at the nearest certified public scale.
b. Non-bulk Items
(1) For non-bulk items, the contractor shall provide portable scales for outweighing of property. Portable scales must have a minimum capacity of 1,500 pounds. For the purpose of this contract, scales permanently affixed or built into a vehicle are considered portable scales.
(2) Prior to the use of portable scales at each pickup site, the contractor must demonstrate reasonable weight accuracy to the Government representative. Only materials to be removed by the contractor will be weighed. Pallets, boxes, strapping, etc., which are not integral parts of the packaging and are not being removed by the contractor will not be included in the weight.
(3) Government scales may be used, in lieu of scales provided by the contractor, only where they are
PAGE 11 OF 52 PAGESCONTINUATION SHEET REFERENCE NO. OF DOCUMENT BEING CONTINUED:
available, operable, and authorized by the Government representative. The contractor shall be responsible for determining the availability of Government scales. The Government makes no guarantee that where Government scales are available, they are operable. At the Government's option, the use of Government scales will be allowed at the following sites:
SITE (Location) EQUIPMENT AVAILABLE (weight capacity of scale) Anderson Air-Force Base Guam 90 Day 5000 LB Pallet Scale NAVFACMAR Guam (CSF) 5000 LB Platform Scale DLA Disposition Services, Guam 5000 & 200,000 Platform and TRK Scale
(4) The use of commercial scales is not authorized for non-bulk items.

1.2.9 SMALL CONTAINERS AND CONTENTS
a. Services for the removal, transportation, storage, and disposal of small container(s) of RCRA/State regulated hazardous or non-hazardous property (HINs will be ordered using HINs with a “1” in the fourth position, e.g., 9101, 9401.) Unless specifically excluded below, small containers are any receptacle containing hazardous or non-hazardous property that has a capacity of less than five (5) gallons.
b. Small containers are not:
(1) Individual sealed articles that are formed to a specific shape or design during manufacture that have an end-use or function dependent in whole or in part upon the shape or design during use. (Examples of such items include, but are not limited to, fuel filters, oil filters, gas mask canisters, chemical defense equipment kits, and factory sealed containers that contain a small container (e.g., epoxy paint)).
(2) RCRA empty containers of any size (which may or may not be crushed to reduce their volume). Examples of such items are empty oil cans, paint cans, etc.
c. In those instances where containers of hazardous property are placed into a larger outer container and the interior packaging is either all small containers as defined above, or a mix of different sizes, some being small containers as defined above, then the entire item (interior packaging and its outer container) shall be assigned to the appropriate small container HIN.
d. The contractor shall accept the Government's HIN assignment as a non-small container item unless the contractor demonstrates to the COR prior to removal from the Government facility that the item(s) does meet the definition of a small container.
e. If the contractor discovers a small container(s) packaged with other items not classified as small containers, the Government reserves the right to:
(1) Assign all the property, including the larger outer container, under the appropriate small container HIN;
or,
(2) Remove the small containers of hazardous property from the larger outer container, delete the small container items’ weight from the task order, and reduce the containerized HINs weight appropriately; or,
(3) Remove the small containers of hazardous property from the larger outer container, re-HIN the small container items separately as small containers on the same task order, and reduce the containerized HINs weight appropriately.
f. If the contractor elects to package EPA/DOT compatible items in the same container in order to facilitate recycling/disposal, then the contractor must provide an all-inclusive packing list showing each item and its respective quantity. This list shall be placed outside the outermost container. A copy of the packing list must be attached to the manifest. Contractor furnished overpack containers and packing materials will not be included in the total weight calculations for payment purposes.

1.3 POST REMOVAL
1.3.1 RETURN OF SHIPPING DOCUMENTATION
a. In addition to the Federal manifest requirements for return of signed manifests to the generator, the contractor shall furnish a copy of each manifest, signed by the designated TSRDF, to the DLA Disposition Services Office, Guam coordinating the waste disposal within 35 days of pickup by the initial transporter. If the waste has not been received by the TSRDF within 30 days after the initial pickup date, the contractor shall notify the Office of the physical location of the waste. If applicable, the contractor shall provide the manifest with additional transporter signatures, as well.
b. If the contractor is unable to deliver the hazardous property to the designated or alternate facility on the manifest, the cognizant COR will be contacted for disposition instructions. Failure of any part of this clause will be marked in the Acceptable Performance Levels (APL).
2.0. DISPOSAL / RECYCLING
This subsection covers requirements for disposal/recycling of RCRA/Non-RCRA items in general, disposal of specialized commodities such as Compressed Gas Cylinders (CGCs) and Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs), and recycling of various mandatory recyclable items.
2.1 RCRA/NON-RCRA ITEMS
2.1.1 DEFINITION OF RCRA vs. NON-RCRA and FINAL TREATMENT / DISPOSAL / RECYCLING
a. Items identified under HINs 9100 through 9899 have been declared hazardous waste by the Government and are subject to stricter disposal requirements than HINs 9900 through 9999. Any items identified under HINs 9801 through 9899 are state regulated hazardous waste only and are not considered a RCRA waste.
(1) If the contractor demonstrates through lab analysis and/or other supporting documentation that a previously identified hazardous waste is not a RCRA/state regulated hazardous waste, the Government may so reclassify the item as non-hazardous waste. The Government will review the lab analysis and other supporting
PAGE 13 OF 52 PAGESCONTINUATION SHEET REFERENCE NO. OF DOCUMENT BEING CONTINUED:
documentation in a reasonable time period, not to exceed 21 days; however, the items in question will be treated as a hazardous waste in the interim and removal timeframes must be met.
(2) For HINs 9100 through 9899 the following does not constitute final treatment/disposal for hazardous waste:
(i) Declaring RCRA/state regulated hazardous waste HINs as RCRA-exempt as a result of management practices specified in 40 CFR 266 and 279;
(ii) Interim treatment of the waste such that the waste still meets the definition of a hazardous waste as defined in 40 CFR 261 et. seq. All facilities used for interim treatment, final treatment or final disposal of items on this contract must comply with 40 CFR 261, subparts C and D, for each waste the facility is permitted to handle. An audit trail must be provided for all RCRA/State regulated hazardous waste until treatment and/or processing renders the wastes non-RCRA or until final disposal is accomplished. Waste handling codes that describe methods of storage do not meet the definition of final treatment nor final disposal under this contract.
b. Any items identified under HIN series 9800 are considered as either a RCRA Universal Waste (UW) or State Regulated UW. Universal Waste includes batteries, some pesticides, lamps, and mercury thermostats as defined under Part 273. It may also include state-designated universal wastes, such as electronic wastes. The Contractor will designate on the manifest in block J when UW is being transported. The regulations allow the generator to make the determination about whether to handle these specific wastes as UW or as hazardous waste under other parts of RCRA. The contractor will be advised on the TO if the wastes are to be handled as UW.
c. HINs 9900 through 9999 are waste not regulated by RCRA or GEPA as hazardous waste and will be subject to less stringent requirements than HINs 9100 through 9899.
(1) If the contractor demonstrates through lab analysis and/or other supporting documentation that a HIN(s) identified under HINs 9900 through 9999 is a RCRA/state regulated hazardous waste, the Government may reclassify the item under HINs 9100 through 9899. The contractor's claim that a HIN identified under HINs 9900 through 9999 is actually a hazardous waste, which should be identified under HINs 9100 through 9899, shall be treated as potential misidentification by the Government. The HIN(s) in question shall not be removed, treated or disposed of until the Government has made a determination on the matter. Reclassification of items from HINs 9100 through 9899 to HINs 9900 through 9999, or from HINs 9900 through 9999 to HINs 9100 through 9899 shall fall under the "Changes" clause of this contract.
(2) Final treatment means processing at a facility that is appropriately licensed/permitted by local and/or state agency to accept the material. If long-term internment is the selected method of disposal, as a minimum, an EPA/state permitted facility with a textile liner, leachate collection system, and ground water monitoring must be used. An audit trail must be provided for all non-RCRA/non-state regulated hazardous waste until final disposal is accomplished. RCRA treatments, Chemical Fixation (T21, H111) and Encapsulation (T39, H112), when performed on non-hazardous waste prior to landfill, are considered final processing/final disposal.
d. The following coverage applies when the contractor alleges that a waste designated for recycling cannot be recycled:
(1) If a waste designated for recycling by the generator does not meet the facilities required recycling parameters the contractor must notify the KO in writing at least five (5) business days before pickup of the rationale and proof for waste rejection. This must include written input from at least three appropriate recycling facilities approved on the DLA Disposition Services Qualified Facilities List at least one of which is not owned by the contractor.
(2) The KO will notify the COR and/or generator personnel to resolve requests to change the assigned mandatory recycling HIN to the appropriate disposal HIN. The final decision to change a mandatory recycling HIN to the applicable disposal HIN is solely that of the Government’s. If the COR and/or generator personnel agree with the HIN change the applicable disposal HIN will be assigned.
2.1.2 CERTIFICATES OF DISPOSAL / DESTRUCTION (CDs)
The contractor shall obtain and provide necessary documentation to prove that final disposal of HINs 9100 – 9899 has been accomplished. Certificates of final treatment or disposal shall be provided to the generating
PAGE 14 OF 52 PAGESCONTINUATION SHEET REFERENCE NO. OF DOCUMENT BEING CONTINUED:
activity identified on the manifest or shipping paper with a copy to the COR. CDs require certifications from agents, officials, or employees of the Qualified Facilities that provided final treatment and/or disposal. CDs shall be provided within thirty (30) calendar days after disposal occurs.
2.1.3 DETAILED ANALYSIS
If the contractor must perform detailed analysis for disposal, copies of the results identified to a specific contract line item shall be provided to the COR. The contractor shall be responsible for the proper disposal of all samples.
2.1.4 ALTERNATE DOCUMENTATION OPTION FOR FUELS BLENDING, ANTIFREEZE RECYCLING, BATTERY RECYCLING /
RECLAMATION, AND FLUORESCENT LIGHT TUBES AND HIGH INTENSITY DISCHARGE LAMPS
a. Contingent upon approval from DLA Disposition Services, the contractor may utilize a plan for fuels blending, antifreeze recycling, battery recycling/reclamation, and/or fluorescent light tubes and high intensity discharge lamps as a method to elevate the additional burden of providing documentation past the initial treatment facility. Contractors must submit a plan to DLA Disposition Services via the KO that includes, at a minimum, certification signed by a responsible official of the facility, which follows the specific guidelines set forth in paragraphs (1), (2), (3), and (4) below, additionally the facility and all subsequent facilities must appear on the “Qualified Facilities” list on our web site https://www.dispositionservices.dla.mil/newenv/documents/qualfac.pdf.
b. Upon Contracting Officer approval, the plan(s) will remain valid for the life of the contract, providing the facilities remain on the DLA Disposition Services Qualified Listing. DLA Disposition Services will certify acceptance of disposal services only after acceptance of the blender’s or recycler’s certification and manifested receipt by the fuels blending or recycler facility. Any inconsistency between this provision and section 2.1.1 shall be resolved by giving precedence to this provision.
c. The below guidelines must be followed for each commodity specific plan:
(1) Fuels Blending – Fuels blending does not apply to blending for destructive incineration. In addition to the guidelines in paragraphs (a) and (b), the plan must certify the following:
- Specifies maximum processing time that property would remain in the fuel blending tank farm is sixty (60) days or less and guarantee that the fuel blended product will not remain in storage longer than the certified processing time, and
- Identifies by name, address and EPA ID number all facilities which may receive the fuel blended products for energy recovery,
- Identifies by name, address and EPA ID number all facilities which may receive the incidental solids, still bottoms, and/or sludges remaining after fuels blending which require destructive incineration per 40 CFR 264 and 265 subpart O.
(2) Antifreeze Recycling – In addition to the guidelines in paragraphs (a) and (b), the plan must certify the following:
- Specifies maximum processing time that property would remain in the storage/consolidation facility is sixty (60) days or less and guarantee that the product will not remain in storage longer than the certified processing time. If time exceeds this value, the firm will provide detailed rationale to DLA Disposition Services, and
- Identifies by name, address and EPA ID number all facilities which may receive the fuel blended products for energy recovery, and
- Identifies by name, address and EPA ID number all facilities which may receive the incidental solids, still bottoms, and/or sludges remaining after distillation/recycling treatments which require disposal in a
RCRA TSRDF.
(3) Battery Recycling/Reclamation – In addition to the guidelines in paragraphs (a) and (b), the plan must certify the following:
- Describes the procedure for the disposition/sale of the RCRA recovered products (e.g., lead nickel, PAGE 15 OF 52 PAGESCONTINUATION SHEET REFERENCE NO. OF DOCUMENT BEING CONTINUED:
cadmium, zinc, and lithium), and
- Describes the treatment/disposition methods for liquids in wet-filled batteries, and
- Identifies by name, address and EPA Id number, and all facilities, which may receive the various components, and
- Guarantees the recovered product will not be shipped outside the United States, without prior authorization of the KO. If shipped outside the U.S., list all countries that may receive the recovered product. If the components are shipped outside the U.S., that a copy of the notification of intent to export and the EPA Acknowledgment of Consent will be provided with the certificate of recycling.
(4) Fluorescent Light Tubes and high-Intensity Discharge Lights – In addition to the guidelines in paragraphs
(a) and (b), the plan must certify the following:
- Specifies maximum processing and storage time that the items (mercury, phosphor powder) will be held until final recycling occurs. Name, address and EPA number of all such processing/storage facilities must be provided
- Identifies by name, address and EPA number all facilities, which will receive the mercury and phosphor powder for final recycling activities.
- Specifies that the items mentioned in the appropriate clause(s) will be processed as required and the names and addresses of the companies performing these activities will be provided.
- Firms that receive the glass and other non-regulated items do not need to be listed on the DLA Disposition Services Qualified TSRDF Listing.
d. Should a facility on a plan be removed from the DLA Disposition Services Qualified Listing, the plan will become invalid and no longer become available for use. Replacement facilities or new facilities should be submitted on a new plan and submitted for approval to DLA Disposition Services via the KO.
