Crawford <br />Director <br />Deanna S. Sako <br />Deputy Director <br />Enclosed is a resolution authorizing the payment of funds of a later fiscal year and of a multi - fiscal <br />year contract for island -wide transportation of recyclable materials from County recycle and <br />transfer stations. <br />The current contract for these services expires on December 31, 2011. The Department of <br />Environmental Management (DEM) is preparing an Invitation for Bid (IFB) for the transportation of <br />recyclable material from County recycle and transfer stations island -wide, which will allow the <br />current 2 -Bin Recycling Program to continue. Since the majority of single - family residences <br />dispose of their waste at recycle and transfer stations, it is essential to maximize recovery of <br />resources by providing convenient, easy to use, and well- maintained recycling drop -off centers at <br />all recycle and transfer stations. The Department of Environmental Management indicates that the <br />recommended contract is for an initial three -year term, with two twelve month options for <br />extension. <br />This resolution is a revised version of Resolution 80 -11, which was filed by the County Council on <br />November 2, 2011, and takes into consideration the comments and recommendations offered by <br />Council members. <br />In order to expedite a new procurement for these services, the Department of Environmental <br />Management requests that this resolution be waived from the Finance Committee and be placed <br />on the December 21, 2011 Council agenda. <br />If there are any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Robin Bauman of the Department of <br />Environmental Management at 981 -8324. <br />Nancy Crawford <br />Director of Finance <br />Enc. <br />cc: Environmental Mgmt <br />.2.02.11) <br />Hawaii County is an Equal Opportunity Provider and Employer <br />Comm.
