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 - contamination of any one of the four materials by the other materials must be less than an aggregate amount of 10% by weight. For example, green glass may be contaminated by a maximum of 10% of brown glass, clear glass and metals taken together. Any one material must contain.less than 5% by weight of foreign contaminants. Foreign contaminants include paper, garbage, and materials not normally processed by the Recycling Center (window glass, etc.). At Super Cycle's option, loads which exceed the cross -contamination or foreign contamination specifications may be cleaned up by the City Contractor or may be rejected altogether. Also at Super Cycle's oytior„ this clean-up may take place at the Recycling Center, or the City Contractor may have to take the load elsewhere for cleai.inq and t`.en bring the materials back. Super Cycle shall notify a County solid waste staff person es snon as possible of any incidents concerning deliveries of contaminated or oLf-specification loads. The City Contractor shall deliver materials in such a manner that they may be unloaded using a forklift with standard attachments or by dumping into bins which are approximately 4 feet high by 4 feet wide by 4 feet long. The City Contractor shall unload only where directed to do so by Super Cycle. Where assistance from Super Cycle employees is necessary (such as for operating a forklift or arranging bins), Super Cycle shall give assistance in a timely fashion and complete the unloading the same day as long as the City Contractor arrives at the Recycling Center by 6:00 p.m. In giving assistance, Super Cycle shall take the City Contractor's vehicles on a first -come, first -serve basis and treat those vehicles on an equal basis ds Super Cycl-a's own vehicles. Total time for unloading cannot be specified as it is dependent on the amount of materials and manner in which they are delivered, but unloading time shall be kept within reasonable bounds by Super Cycle unless there are circumstances be_:ond their control. Conversely, City Contractors shall not ling_r T unnecessarily at the Recycling Center, n^ r shall they enter a::e=s of the property without just cause. The mandatory delivery requirement r,.ey be temporarily or permanently suspended upon mutual agreement by the City, the City Contractor, Super Cycle, and the County (through the Director of the Public Health Department).
