SUBJ: Review of Solid Waste Collection and Disposal Bids
Attached are copies of all of the bids received and an
informational spread sheet. Though it appears to be a somewhat
complicated process to analyze all of the alternate bids, it is
not really that difficult. We believe the Collection bid is
straight forward and easily determined. BFI is the low bid,
they have met the requirements and the staff feels very
comfortable with their ability to run a first class operation.
Consequently, the staffs recommendation is to accept BFI's
bid for solid waste collection-within the City limit.g of
e ror resiaential purposes.
The disposal bid is a little more complicated, and basically
boils down to four bids for consideration:
_ The first is the bid from BFI for landfill
operations at $21.30 for ton.
- The second landfill bid is an alternate from BFI for
$10.80 per ton, however, it does not meet the
specifications at this time. This bid could be made to
work with some rewording of the contract, and
representatives of BFI have indicated that this is,a -
possibility.
-The third bid is from BFI for a transfer station at
$28.41 per ton. Under this arrangement BFI would be
transferring all solid waste from Kerr County to a
BFI owned landfill near San Antonio.
-City of Kerrville operate the landfill at $14.77 per
ton. (Does not meet specifications.)
From the staffs perspective, it seems the item to consider is
whether the City would prefer a landfill operation, or a
transfer operation. The cost associated with a landfill
operation are sufficiently less than a transfer operation. In
analyzing BFI's proposal, $70,000 per year could be saved
from the BFI standard landfill bid over the transfer
operation. When considering BFI's alternate bid, it is -

estimated that $173,000 per year could. be saved over the
transfer operation.
However, the cost considerations should be weighed over several
factors. One is the cost of land. Can we replace the land
being consumed by landfilling, and pay the less obvious cost;
such as monitoring wells, land reclamation, etc. In any of
the landfilling cases, the contractor would be the only one
collecting money for the disposal process, and yet the City
will be out the expense of land, permitting, monitoring, and
engineering costs mentioned above. In going to the transfer
station all-costs are true costs, and except for the initial
permit request, each party would pay its £air share per ton.
Still another factor, though somewhat speculative at this time,
is the future land filling requirements proposed by the State.
We are aware that more stringent limits will be forth coming,
but we cannot say exactly how they will change over the next
five years.
For these reasons, the staff recommends the transfer operation
as the most preferable method of solid waste disposal for Kerr
County. However, the staff realizes that the City Council and
County Commissioners are faced with a serious decision of how
much our rate payers can afford. If the decision is to accept
one of the landfill bids, we would strongly recommend
consideration to adding on a land reclamation and land
acquisition fee on top of the Contractor's fee. For example,
if BFI's alternate bid was accepted, and the contract amended
accordingly, there would be a tipping fee of $10.80 per ton
going to the Contractor. In this example, the staff would
recommend adding approximately $1.50 per ton for permitting and
engineering fees, and approximately $2.00 per ton for land
acquisition for future landfill sites. This would result in a
total of $14.30 per ton, and correspond to a total cost of
$6.16 per residential customer in the City limits for refuse
collection and disposal. (This assumes BFI doing the
collection at $4.73 per month per customer.) This fee would be
charged across the board and would be paid by all users
Countywide. The staff would also recommend under this
arrangement to eliminate the $.50 per month surcharge currently
being paid by City residents. The staff believes this would be
the closest arrangement to the advantages to a transfer
operation at a reduced cost.
If you should have any questions regarding the above, please do
not hesitate to contact us.

ALTERNATE PROPOSAL FOR THE OPERATIONS OF
THE CITY OF KERRVILLE SANITARY LANDFILL
The Browning-Ferris, Inc. (BFI) alternate proposal for the disposal
contract at the City of Kerrville was prepared to give the City a more cost
effective alternate for the disposal of waste at the landfill. The
alternate proposal consists of utilizing different equipment and personnel
than requested in the City of Kerrville disposal contract request for
proposal specifications. This proposal is submitted with the understanding
that the site will be in full compliance with the Texas Department of
Health Municipal Solid Waste Regulations upon BFI starting operations at
the landfill.
The major pieces of equipment to be utilized in this alternate proposal are
as follows:
a. (1) Track loader, Caterpillar 963 with ripper
b. (1) Compactor, John Deere
c. (1) Water pump
d. (I) Pickup truck
e. (I) Scale and gate house
f. (1) Air compressor
A John Deere compactor is more than enough equipment to properly compact
the waste. Wastes shall be compacted in layers no greater than 2 feet in
thickness. The compactor shall pass over the waste no less than 3 times.
BFI is concerned with the proper compaction of waste because it extends the
landfill life and reduces subsidence of filled areas. Along with the track
loader, the site will have sufficient equipment to properly operate the
landfill.
In the alternate proposal, BFI shall, at a minimum, have on duty one (1)
supervisor/operator, one (1) operator and one (I) gatekeeper. BFI has
experienced in the past that utilizing a supervisor as an operator also is
004

r •~.~ :.~

very effective. The supervisor will be more aware of the site operations
by actually operating the equipment on a part-tune basis. The remainder
~of the time spend by the supervisor/operator will be performing the
following tasks:
a. Preparing documentation.
b. Handling complaints.
c. Interacting with regulatory agencies.
d. Organizing necessary consultant work.
e. Interacting with the City of Kerrville.
