Att.tc (linen c A - Delivery Specifications - The specifications below describe the mandatory delivery requirements for curbside recycling collection funded wholly or in part by Ramsey County (the "County "). These specifications also outline the roles and responsibilities of the collection company (the "City Contractor ") hired by the City or its subcontractors (the "City ") and the operator ( "Super Cycle ") of the Ramsey County Recycling Center (the "Recycling Center "). Curbside collection activities funded by the County under contracts with a City are required to deliver to the Recycling Center all of the glass and metals which are collected under said contract. The glass and metal required to be delivered is defined to include glass containers (green, brown and clear) and the following metals: aluminum cans and foil, bi -metal beverage cans, and tin - plated food cans. The following materials cannot be delivered to the Recycling Center except by mutual agreement by the City, the City Contractor, Super Cycle, and the County; newspaper, cardboard, waste oil, car batteries, and other materials not otherwise specified. Note that where Super Cycle is also the City Contractor, no such agreement is necessary. Materials shall be delivered to the Recycling Center between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, except for the following holidays: New Year's Day, Memorial Day, July 4th, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. Upon both arriving at and leaving from the Recycling Center for the purpose of delivering materials, the City Contractor's vehicle shall be weighed on the truck scale at the Recycling Center. The truck scale can be operated only by a Super Cycle employee. If no employee of Super Cycle is present in the area of the truck scale or scale room, the City Contractor must seek out and notify an employee of his /her need to be weighed. Super Cycle must complete the weighing within ten minutes of being notified. Super Cycle must provide the City Contractor with legible copies of both truck scale tickets and keep at least one copy of each ticket for their own records, marking it with the name of the City Contractor. Super Cycle shall not charge the City Contractor for weighings connected to mandatory deliveries. Under no circumstances shall the City Contractor honk their vehicle's horn to notify Super Cycle of the need to be weighed or for any other reason except emergency actions to warn pedestrians or other drivers of their presence. The City Contractor shall not create disturbances of any kind, nor shall they block ingress or egress for any part of the Recycling Center including adjacent public roadways. Materials must be delivered in a separated condition. All three colors of glass must be separated from each other and from the metals. The metals may be combined with each other. Cross- Page 6
