Region 2 is the conducting procurement unit. Bidders must be licensed and insured to perform work in the State of Utah, with current documentation available on request.

Scope covers removal, transportation, and disposal of septic waste at Rest Areas, Welcome Centers, View Areas, Ports of Entry, and maintenance facilities, with over 39 highway locations requiring regular service. Contractors must respond to all awarded locations within seven days of request and must have equipment capable of pumping, loading, and hauling waste to proper disposal sites. Some sites contain multiple septic or vault systems, and locations may be added or deleted during the contract period. Contractors must meter gallons removed and provide disposal receipts with invoices.

Pricing is per gallon, with mobilization, labor, equipment, disposal, and all other fees included in each location's rate. Bidders may bid on the East District (Wasatch area along I-80, including Echo and Parley's Canyon facilities), the West District (Wendover area along I-80, including Grassy Mountain locations), or both, but must price every location within any district they bid. UDOT awards each district separately to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, based solely on cost.

Subsequent adjustment requests must cover an equal guarantee period, be submitted at least 30 days before the effective date, and include documentation showing a logical mathematical link to current pricing.
