Isda hazardous waste removal - boise and twin falls

The Idaho State Department of Agriculture is requesting quotes for hazardous waste removal services from laboratories in Boise and Twin Falls under RFQ 1436, with quotes due October 1, 2026 at 5:00 PM MST and written questions due September 23 at 11:59 PM MST through the IPRO e-procurement system.

The scope encompasses inventory, packing, manifesting, removal, transport, and disposal of laboratory chemicals and materials in compliance with RCRA, HSWA, CERCLA, OSHA hazardous waste operations standards, and Department of Transportation regulations. The Twin Falls facility (1180 N. Washington Street) requires an estimated two to three pickups annually; the Boise facility (2300 Old Penitentiary Road) requires one to two pickups annually. ISDA will provide a 30-gallon flammable waste container at Twin Falls within 14 calendar days of contract award, which the vendor must replace with a clean container upon each pickup. Vendors must submit itemized invoices within 14 days of each pickup and disposal manifests for record-keeping. The contract term is one year with four optional one-year renewals upon mutual agreement; pricing must remain firm for the first contract year, with adjustments at renewal considered only with written justification for documented cost increases outside vendor control.

Award will be based on lowest total cost calculated using a formula combining average prices from three designated pricing tables covering dichloromethane disposal, disposal services across hazard classifications and container sizes (less than 5 gallons to 55 gallons), and one-time mobilization fees per pickup location. All pricing must be submitted electronically through IPRO and must include all labor, materials, packing supplies, manifesting, disposal fees, and environmental surcharges.

Vendors must hold a current valid EPA ID number and maintain Pollution Legal Liability or Contractors Pollution Liability insurance with minimum coverage of $1 million per pollution condition and $5 million annual aggregate, plus comprehensive general liability ($1 million per occurrence / $2 million aggregate) and workers' compensation insurance as required by Idaho law. All insurance must name the State of Idaho and ISDA as additional insureds. Vendor responses must be firm for 90 days and submitted with the completed State of Idaho Signature Page through LUMA and IPRO.
