About this opportunity

Portage County, Wisconsin is soliciting bids for a leachate transportation contract through its Purchasing Department. The procurement seeks a qualified tanker transportation contractor to haul leachate from the Portage County Sanitary Landfill site located in Custer, Wisconsin, with delivery to either the Stevens Point or Plover Wastewater Treatment Plant. The contract will cover transportation of an estimated 200,000 gallons annually, with actual billing based on volumes transported. Bidders must demonstrate five years of experience in tanker transportation and provide three references from comparable-sized clients. The bid submission deadline is November 17, 2020, at 2:00 PM, with a contract term spanning January 1, 2021, through December 31, 2022, and potential for a two-year extension. Evaluation criteria include unit pricing per gallon, comprehensive liability insurance requirements, and the contractor's ability to maintain a tanker capable of hauling a minimum of 30,000 gallons monthly. Contractors must also provide replacement equipment, report weight and volume data within 48 hours, and respond to transportation requests within 72 hours.

The solicitation does not specify any specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. The contract includes a fuel adjustment mechanism based on the U.S. Energy Information Administration's Midwest Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel rate, with a base price of $2.55 per gallon and a $0.45 per trip adjustment for every $0.10 change in fuel price. Insurance requirements are substantial, mandating $1,000,000 per person and $3,000,000 per occurrence for bodily injury and death, with the County listed as an additional insured. Historical leachate volumes have ranged from approximately 190,000 to 270,000 gallons annually, with an anticipated continued decrease as the landfill is capped and under long-term care. While no specific budget range is detailed, the unit price submission and volume estimates provide insight into potential contract value. The procurement appears focused on securing a reliable, experienced transportation provider capable of consistently and safely managing leachate removal from the county's closed landfill site.
