Meeting Fiscal Impact (Y/N) Dollar Amount Budget Source Category Type Information December 3, 2024 - REGULAR MEETING OF THE MOUNT PROSPECT VILLAGE BOARD Y $112,540 Refuse Disposal Fund CONSENT AGENDA Action Item Potentially harmful materials are often stockpiled in basements, garages, closets, and other storage areas because of disposal restrictions. The Village Board recognizes the need for environmentally sound management of such waste and supports the hosting of household hazardous waste collection events exclusively for Mount Prospect residents. The Village successfully hosted biannual by -appointment -only household hazardous waste collection events from 2019 to 2024. Over 5,000 Mount Prospect households have participated in these events. Request for Proposals (RFPs) Staff solicited proposals from six environmental companies to provide OSHA/Hazardous Materials trained personnel for the segregation, packing, disposal, and transportation of household hazardous waste (HHW) in compliance with Illinois Environmental Protection Agency standards and guidelines. These services are required to support the operation of two one -day household hazardous waste collection events in Mount Prospect. A copy of this RFP is enclosed as Attachment A. Discussion RFP Results Two technical proposals were received. Each proposal was evaluated based on the company's background, relevant project experience, proposed services and scope of work, schedule, work effort, and overall proposal content. A point ranking (total points = 100) was assigned to each criterion. Table 1 below summarizes this analysis: Table 1 - Company Rankings Category Max. Points Tradebe Republic Services -Background 20 18 17 Experience 20 20 18 Scope 25 25 23 Schedule 15 15 15 Work Effort 10 10 7 Content 10 1 10 8 Totals: 1 100 198 188 The proposals indicated that all participating environmental companies were qualified to perform the specified work. Both companies demonstrated adequate experience and had appropriately trained staff to host a successful one -day household hazardous waste collection event. The evaluation scores were closely distributed. Staff conducted interviews with both companies to ensure they had a thorough understanding of the project scope and the Village's expectations for hosting the household hazardous waste collection events. The highest-rated company was Tradebe Environmental Services, LLC of Merrillville, Indiana. Tradebe's proposal included ample references for successful similar events, and all reference checks indicated the firm performed well. With over thirty years of experience in the collection, treatment, recycling, and disposal of hazardous and non -hazardous waste, Tradebe is highly qualified. Tradebe has provided logistics, material handling, and disposal services for the Village's HHW events since 2018. They offered sufficient resources, well-trained staff, and well -organized operations. Staff believes the firm is well-qualified to provide the requested services. Each environmental company was asked to submit a two-part cost proposal. Table 2 outlines the first component: mobilization (fixed) costs. These costs include expenses related to the estimated volume of cars, equipment, supplies, personnel, setup, operations, transportation, and non -hazardous waste disposal (including packaging, empty containers from participants, and waste from event operations). Table 2 - Mobilization (Fixed) Costs Vehicle Range Tradebe Republic Services Under 200 vehicles $7,842.00 $30,000.00 200-400 vehicles $15,923.00 $32,000.00 400-600 vehicles $18,277.00 $45,600.00 600-800 vehicles $19,694.00 $52,000.00 800-1000 vehicles $20,703.00 $60,000.00 1000-1200 vehicles $25,117.00 $84,000.00 1200-1400 vehicles $26,827.00 $95,200.00 Table 3 illustrates component two (2); variable disposal costs. Variable disposal costs are made up of units of measure and type of material. Table 3 below represents typical waste streams and the average quantity collected at a one -day HHW event servicing 400-600 vehicles. Costs for other waste streams are not listed in the table below but are provided in each cost proposal.

The total cost estimate for a single one -day HHW event (up to 600 vehicles) is $49,031.00 in disposal/recycling costs. The approximate cost to host two to three one -day events is $98,062.00 to $147,093.00 Flexibility does exist in the contract allowing staff to make determinations on the size of the event after the contract is signed. If the first two events see low participation or volumes, staff can adjust and host a larger third event. Conversely, if the first or second event collects larger volumes than expected, the third event could be reduced in scope to meet budget demands. Alternatives 1. Accept Tradebe Environmental Services, LLC,'s proposal to host up to three one -day household hazardous waste collection events. 2. Action at the discretion of the Village Board. Staff Recommendation Staff recommends that the Village Board accept the proposal for Household Hazardous Waste Collection as submitted by Tradebe Environmental Services, LLC, of Merrillville, Indiana for an amount not to exceed $112,540.

Mount Prospect, IL 60056 RE: 2024 Household Hazardous Waste Collection Dear Ms. Jakupovic: Tradebe Environmental Services, LLC. 1433 E. 831 Ave., Ste. 200 Merrillville, IN 46410 Tradebe Environmental Services, LLC (Tradebe) is pleased to submit this proposal to provide Household Hazardous Waste Collections, Recycling and Disposal for the Village of Mount Prospect. We realize that the primary goal of these collections is to reduce the amount of hazardous waste discarded from homes. The potential for ground and surface water contamination, damage to solid waste and wastewater treatment operations, and injury to sanitation workers exist if these materials remain in municipal refuse. We have a shared understanding of the importance that these collections have in the protection of individual health, health of the environment, and the well-being of the community as a whole. Tradebe understands that the successful Contractor will provide qualified personnel, supplies, and equipment to provide for the transportation and disposal of household hazardous waste and other support for the Village. Tradebe has been in the waste industry for over forty (40) years, and through its Technical Services Division is one of the largest on-site providers of community-based household hazardous waste collection programs in the nation. In addition to managing household collection programs, we are also one of the nation's largest processors of household collection waste. If awarded the contract, Tradebe has the knowledge and experience to perform these services in full compliance with all EPA regulations and any other applicable Federal and State laws. Tradebe has enjoyed servicing the Village of Mount Prospect over the past several years and feels it is the best - positioned environmental services company that can provide the Village with the most responsible, compliant, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly waste management services. Our devotion to customer service and our commitment to maintaining the highest ethical and professional standards make us stand out from our competitors. We look forward to continuing a close relationship based on the safe and successful management of your waste.

Tradebe's trained chemists and lab pack technicians will be present during the HHW collection day to fulfill all of the segregating and packing duties. Tradebe's Technical Service Specialist will work with the town's designated coordinator to develop final plans for each event. For regulatory purposes, Tradebe will assume generator status for the collected HHW and will be responsible for waste from the time of collection until said waste is properly disposed of at our facility. Tradebe already has the necessary permits and licenses to fulfill this purpose. On the day of the HHW event, Tradebe will secure and remove all material by the end of the day. For each one -day collection event, Tradebe will provide personal to prepare the site, screen residents, unload vehicles, segregate waste, and package all waste to be transported offsite. Staff will arrive one (1) hour before the start of the event in order to begin set up. Tradebe understands that the Village will provide the following services for the HHW collection event: • Security for the site; • Control of traffic; • Screening of participants; • Stand-by fire, medical, and hazmat emergency crews; • Comfort facilities for all on-site workers; • Advertising for the event Below is a diagram that illustrates how Tradebe will typically set up a site for an HHW collection event depending on the geography of the location. Over the years, we have learned this to be the most safe and efficient method in order to serve participants attending the events.

Tradebe's on-site personnel will have a clear understanding of hazardous chemicals and will be able to answer questions from residents. As the vehicle pulls into the unloading lane, the participant will be asked to put their car in the park position and remain in the vehicle. The unloader(s) will inspect the load for any leaking containers or unacceptable material and notify the customer if any are found. If any potentially dangerous items (i.e. explosive, radioactive, and bio hazardous) are discovered, a chemist will be called over to inspect the material and determine the best course of action. The unloader(s) will then carefully remove all acceptable material and place it on a plastic cart. If a waste item is determined to be too heavy or large for the unloading cart, the unloader(s) will request that a drum cart or forklift be used to transport the waste item to the appropriate workstation. The chemist will segregate and help pack waste that is collected. Any lab pack material (items requiring special attention) will be packed by a qualified chemist. Tradebe will ask that the participant identify any unlabeled material found in the vehicle. This information will immediately be written on the container with a permanent marker. If it cannot be identified, the material will be taken to the screening area for analysis. i, Site IIII3ti IIIIIllciiiiiiiiq Tradebe will be able to bulk on-site used oils, antifreeze, and flammable liquids into 55 -gallon drums. A bulking station will be set up away from the receiving area where cars will be coming through. The bulking stations will be setup on spill pads and will be grounded in order to avoid any static electricity sparks from generating. A spill response kit containing a shovel and Oil -Dry will be on hand in case of any accidental spill. Based on our experience at hundreds of HHW events, bulking of oil-based paint in cans and latex paint in cans is counterproductive and not an efficient use of labor resources due to the non -pourable nature of most oil-based paint and latex paint in cans which are typically brought to HHW events.

Empty waste containers will be arranged a few feet behind the segregation tables. Tradebe's fully trained field chemist will manage this workstation. Tradebe's chemists will examine the labels of the individual containers to determine the list of chemical constituents and their concentrations. From this information, the chemist will be able to determine the proper hazard class and packaging protocol for the waste item. If the chemist requires additional information, the waste item will be further analyzed through Tradebe's unknown testing procedures. Absorbent materials, such as oil dry, spill pads, and cotton rags will also be present on-site, in case of a spill. Most of the items received at the segregation table will be lab packed or loose packed. All waste material that is unloaded at the segregation table will be placed in UN-rated/DOT approved containers. The field chemists will then pack the waste items according to Tradebe's Lab Pack Guidelines, which are based on DOT and EPA regulations. In some cases, Tradebe's guidelines are more stringent than DOT or EPA's regulations for packaging waste material. Once the drum is closed, the chemists will add the appropriate labels for shipment to Tradebe.

Emergency Response Guidelines Unplanned releases fall into two categories: either an Incidental Release or an Emergency Response. Tradebe personnel will respond to incidental releases, nuisance spills, or minor releases of hazardous substances where the substance can be absorbed, neutralized, or otherwise controlled at the time of release. Incidental releases are limited in quantity, exposure potential, and toxicity and clearly do not present a significant safety or health risk to the personnel assigned to cleaning up the release. nnnnu IJJIi � ''Ifl i rir¢ ��t Tradebe Environmental Services, LLC. 11 1433 E. 83rd Ave., Ste. 200 T RA D E B E" Merrillville, IN 46410 Upon determining that the release is containable and controllable, the specified Tradebe Emergency Response Coordinator (ERC) will implement the following clean-up action plan. During clean-up procedures, all reasonable measures will be taken to ensure that the fires, explosions, and releases do not occur, recur, or spread to other areas. A small spill includes drips and splashes that cover a small surface, area less than one square foot with estimated volumes less than one (1) pint. A moderate spill includes splashes that cover a surface area greater than one square foot and with estimated volumes of less than one-half (1/2) gallon of material. The following procedures will be performed by the Emergency Response Coordinator (ERC) and other trained Tradebe personnel in the event of an Incidental release. 1. Small fire a. Stay upwind and out of low areas. b. Eliminate ignition sources. c. Move the appropriate firefighting equipment to the area; extinguish the fire. d. Using a shovel, transfer the spent material to a lined drum (or equivalent container) and seal the container. e. Ensure that the recovered waste or contaminated material is properly stored in a container storage unit. f. Decontaminate the area, equipment, and personnel. 2. Chemical Spill a. Eliminate all ignition sources and secure the area. b. Don the proper personal protective equipment. c. Move unaffected chemicals out of the area, if no hazard is involved. d. Contain the spill to prevent the spill from spreading. Use Damming Diking and/or absorbent materials to stop the spread of the spilled materials. e. Absorb the spilled materials with absorbents, including Vermiculite, Ultrasorb, or spill pillows. f. Using a broom and shovel, transfer the spent material to a lined drum (or equivalent container) and seal the container. g. Ensure that the recovered waste or contaminated material is properly stored in a container in the storage unit. h. Decontaminate the area, equipment and personnel. 3. Solvent or Oil Spills a. Eliminate all ignition sources and secure the area. b. Don the proper personal protective equipment. c. Move unaffected chemicals out of the area, if no hazard is involved. d. Contain the spill to prevent the spill from spreading. Use Damming Diking and/or absorbent materials to stop the spread of the spilled materials. e.

Using a broom and shovel, transfer the spent material to a lined drum (or equivalent container) and seal the container. g. Ensure that the recovered waste or contaminated material is properly stored in a container in the storage unit. h. Decontaminate the area, equipment, and personnel. The Emergency Action Plan shall be implemented in the event of the following situation: 1. Fire a. The fire could generate the release of toxic fumes. b. The fire could spread and ignite materials at other locations. nnnnu IJJIi � ''Ifl i rir¢ ��t Tradebe Environmental Services, LLC. 11 1433 E. 83rd Ave., Ste. 200 T RA D E B E" Merrillville, IN 46410 c. The fire could spread off-site. d. The use of fire suppressant materials could cause contaminated run-off. 2. Explosion a. Imminent danger exists which could cause an explosion, resulting in extreme heat and gas generation. b. Imminent danger exists which could ignite materials at other locations. c. An explosion could occur which could release toxic fumes. 3. Unplanned Release of Hazardous Waste a. The release of flammable liquids or vapors could create a potential fire or explosion hazard. b. The release could contain toxic liquids and/or fumes. c. The release has the potential to contaminant air, soil, or surface water. In the event of an emergency situation requiring the implementation of the Emergency Action Plan, the Emergency Response Coordinator (ERC) assumes the lead role in responding to the emergency and will call the 911 emergency number and implement site control and evacuation, if necessary. This of course includes local police and fire department emergency response personnel. Transportation Spill Guidelines In the event of an on -the road spill or other emergency, the driver will follow these procedures: A. Remain in the unit and warn all pedestrians and motorists to stay away from the spill area. Point out to them the danger involved and have someone call the police or fire department. B. Upon the arrival of the police or fire department, the driver will inform them of what kind of material has been spilled and request the area be blocked off to both pedestrians and vehicles to prevent property damage or any serious personal injury. The driverwill request the first responder, fire, or police personnel to protect the area while the driver reports to a facility Emergency Coordinator. C. The Emergency Coordinator will gather the following information from the driver and relay it to the National Response Center and the appropriate State agency. 1. Name of person reporting the incident. 2. Name, address, and identification number of the transporter. 3. Phone number where person reporting can be reached. 4. Date, time, and location of the incident. 5. The extent of injuries, if any. 6. Classification, name, and quantity of hazardous materials, wastes involved, if such information is available. 7. Type of incident and nature of hazardous materials/wastes involved if such information is available. 8. For each waste product involved provide: a. Name and identification number of generator. b. Product shipping, hazardous class and UN or NA number. c. Estimated quantity of material spilled. d. If possible, the extent of contamination to land, water, or air. 9. Shipping name, hazard class, and identification of any other material carried. D. Specific actions to be taken at the scene of the spill are: Containment - the critical problem is to prevent the escape of any spilled liquid or solid into the ground or into a/storm or sanitary sewer. A barrier must be erected immediately to prevent the escape of 11 11 II��W/A nnnnu IJJIi � ''Ifl i rir¢ ��t Tradebe Environmental Services, LLC. 11 1433 E. 83rd Ave., Ste. 200 T RA D E B E" Merrillville, IN 46410 spilled materials/waste liquids, using whatever material is at hand, even a dirt curb, to prevent the spread of the spill. Containment of solids will be dependent on wind and weather conditions. Use tarpaulin in the vehicle or plastic (available at most supply stores) if conditions are wet and windy. Simultaneously, the sources of the spill or leak must be located and controlled, e.g., a drum plugged or taped, turned upside down. The possibility of evacuation should be considered in the event of a major spill (e.g., a collision with another vehicle or a loaded trailer that is turned over, with subsequent container(s) rupturing). Major concerns involve ignitable wastes that may catch fire and possibly explode or generate toxic fumes. If fire threatens or occurs, personnel should be evacuated a distance of at least a half -mile as recommended by the Emergency Response Guidebook. If no fire threatens, and no container(s) has ruptured, a distance of 50 to 100 ft. should suffice. If the shipping description is known (referto the manifest) find the name in your Emergency Response Guidebook in the blue pages and turn to the Corresponding Guide Number (orange top page — last 1/3 of the book). If the shipping description is not known, check the placard on the vehicle for an "UN" or "NA" number, look up the number in the yellow pages and refer to the Corresponding Guide Number, or contact the generator of the waste for safety data. 2. Cleanup - with containment effected and the spillage source controlled, cleanup is the next step. If the spill is contained on an impervious paved surface, material should be absorbed onto a compatible material (e.g., sand, diatomaceous earth). Any of a number of commercial absorbent inert materials may be used, but make sure they are compatible with the waste and will not cause a reaction. If the spillage has reached earth, all contaminated dirt should be collected into drums or bags for disposal at an EPA approved site. If any spilled waste has reached the ground, the contaminated soil will be removed. The extent of contamination will be determined by sampling the spill area. A qualified laboratory will analyze the sample. Sampling techniques, chain -of -custody requirements, and analytical methods will follow approved procedures such as those outlined in SW -846. Any soil exhibiting contamination above the local background level will be removed to an appropriate permitted disposal site.

Equipment will be decontaminated in the following manner: Each item used will be placed in an open head container and thoroughly rinsed with a compatible solvent or cleaning compound. The residue orwash water will then be drained into a tight head container, sealed, and disposed of per Federal and State Regulations at an authorized disposal site. Clothing — Contaminated clothing will be placed with the cleanup residue and disposed of per Federal and State Regulations at an authorized disposal site. If clothing is reusable, then it will be decontaminated properly, and the residue managed the same as the spill waste. Notification — The Department of Transportation, Director of Hazardous Materials Registration, Materials and Transportation Bureau, Washington, DC 10590 will be notified, in writing, of the occurrence and nature of the incident and a copy will be submitted to the proper Environmental Management Facility. Site Safety Plans Tradebe will prepare a site-specific Safety Plan. Tradebe will ensure the on-site employees are familiar with the approved Safety Plan.

Tradebe neighbors include a commercial gas manufacturer, a railyard, and a vacant aluminum smelting facility. The closest water stream is the Indiana Harbor Canal, which is approximately 2,700 feet west of the facility. The majority of the property is dedicated to serving Tradebe waste management operations. Also located on the facility's property is a rail -line that accommodates up to ten rail cars. EPA Region V and the Indiana Department of Environmental Management (IDEM) originally issued the Part B RCRA permit in 1991. The facility currently has storage capacity for up to 4,508 "55 -gallon drum equivalent" containers of hazardous waste. With the issuance of the renewed permit, permitted drum capacity increases to 11,000 drums. Tradebe's operations includes a 165,000 -gallon tank farm, a newly redesigned state-of-the-art lab pack/depack facility, a drum consolidation and handling building, and a non- hazardous processing building with 45,327 gallons of bulk treatment capacity. The company's laboratory and receiving area are capable of accepting and analyzing up to 2,000 drums per day. The Part B facility has the capability of receiving up to 30,000 drums per month. Tradebe operates an adjacent 8 -acre site as a transfer yard for incoming and outgoing waste, and a potential expansion of the East Chicago operation. In July of 2004,Tradebe added a new capability to its range of services call Solid Distillation system (SDS). The SDS allows Tradebe to process and recycle waste materials on-site. Our Solid Distillation System is self-contained, indirectly -heated, rotating processing chamber that uses an anaerobic atmosphere to remove volatile and semi - volatile organic compounds from solid waste. SDS eliminates oxidation and the formation of hazardous compounds. In addition to the environmentally friendly nature of the process, the SDS system offers many other advantages over typical direct -flame systems. A significant expansion of our SDS processing capabilities was made in 2016 when as second processing unit was added more than doubling our processing capacity.

If any of the above damages are caused in part by acts or omissions of the Indemnified Parties, the amount of indemnification from TES will be proportional to the degree of comparative fault of the Indemnified Parties, its employees or other contractors. The indemnification obligations of TES under this paragraph are absolutely conditioned upon TES receiving prompt written notice of a claim for indemnification from an Indemnified Party or claimant after an Indemnified Party is served with a claim or becomes aware of an event giving rise to a claim for indemnification.
