About this opportunity
The City of Waxahachie, Texas, located in Ellis County, is seeking proposals for the disposal of sewage sludge or biosolids from its Howard Road Wastewater Treatment Plant. The procurement is a two-year contract with three potential one-year renewals, targeting qualified contractors to manage approximately 7,500 tons of municipal active sludge biosolids annually. The biosolids are non-liquid, with a pH range of 5 to 9, and will be transported in city-owned 30-yard end-dump trailers. Contractors must have a disposal site within 85 miles of the treatment plant and comply with Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) and U.S. EPA regulations. The proposal will be evaluated on a 100-point system, with 60 points for cost, 15 points for experience and qualifications, 15 points for obtaining applicable permits, and 10 points for references. Key deadlines include May 30, 2025, for questions and June 4, 2025, at 9:00 am for proposal submissions.
There are no specific set-aside designations or restrictions on responding organizations mentioned in the documentation. Contractors must possess a state permit to operate the disposal site, provide a site inspection report, and hold a Class B Biosolids Permit. The City reserves the right to award the contract to the most advantageous proposal and may conduct interviews during the selection process. All materials will become the property of the successful contractor, who must dispose of the waste legally in conformance with TCEQ and EPA regulations. While no specific budget range is explicitly stated, the contract will be priced on a per-ton rate for disposal. The documentation emphasizes strict compliance requirements, including mandatory annual testing of sludge using Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure (TCLP) tests and comprehensive recordkeeping for five years, with annual reports to be submitted to the TCEQ Regional Office by September 1st of each year.
