o o o removal of hazardous trees and debris from other public facilities, such as parks, trails or utility infrastructure (i.e., water plants). The debris created from this work typically becomes part of the general ROW debris stream. Depending on the geographic region, a mission to remove, screen and replace beach sand may be issued; this may include restoration of beach dunes, etc. What's more, at debris management sites, programs may be implemented and underway to reduce and recycle white goods and other metals and reusable materials that may have been collected in the debris stream. These are typically segregated during the ROW mission on site and/or at the debris site. Any right-of-entry work that may be authorized and tasked to Ash Britt, which could include just debris removal and/or hazardous tree removal from private property to full-blown demolition and removal of resultant debris from the property-sometimes with the need to handle asbestos containing materials and/or other hazardous materials. This is highly specialized work with requires experienced and certified crews. As this work generally requires a great deal of investigation, assessment, documentation and monitoring it is usually conducted during the third pass (or more) of the mission. It is possible that an ROE mission will far surpass the time needed to complete the general right-of-way clearance. If necessary, the varied debris stream generated from ROE work may be diverted from hauling to temporary staging areas and hauled directly to applicable final disposal sites, including recycling facilities and legally certified landfills. Careful environmental monitoring is conducted during ROE work. Phase 7 - Final Disposal, ROW Demobilization & Hot Spot "Punch List" As debris is hauled to the designated temporary debris sites, it is constantly managed and processed. Debris is segregated by class (i.e., burnable, non-burnable, hazardous, recyclable, etc.). The various types of debris are typically reduced by a variety of means, such as grinding, chipping, incinerating, open burning, compacting, mauling, crushing and baling. Some debris may just be put aside (segregated or contained) for collections by others; this debris includes household hazardous waste, gas containers, rubber tires, scrap metal and other "beyond-scope" materials. The disposal of reduced debris is coordinated and scheduled from the onset of the mission, although it typically "ramps up" after several weeks of ROW collection. During the latter part of the second and the third pass, disposal activity becomes accelerated. As the ROW mission winds down, resources are scaled backed and AshBritt management begins releasing and demobilizing equipment and personnel. We typically maintain Hot Spot crews to respond to special client requests and to complete generated punch lists. Debris management and reduction activities continue at the debris sites well after the ROW mission is complete. The balance of the debris is reduced and final disposal activities continue. The time required to complete this disposal is dependent the haul distance to the final disposal site(s). Though increasing trailers can accelerate the process. It generally takes about twice as long to reduce debris by grinding and/or burning as it does to collect it. Disposal activities could take up to several months past completion of the ROW mission to complete. During this phase, AshBritt attempts to route and dispose of debris to its most beneficial use. We employ a variety of means to lessen the burden on local landfills and to encourage recycling and reuse of debris. As with all elements of the project, all debris hauled to final destination sites is carefully tracked and documented to substantiate full and accurate reimbursements. Phase 8 - TDSRS Restoration and Closeout Upon removal of all debris at TDSRSs, the site(s) will be restored to pre-use condition (or better). All equipment and site resources (such as the inspection tower and any fencing or erosion control devices) will be removed. Comprehensive procedures for the close-out and restoration of debris sites are incorporated in the proposal later in this section and Section 6e. Ash Britt's Debris Site Manger and Project Manager will conduct a final closeout inspection with representatives of the City and execute a final release once it is determined the site meets the approval of the City. Phase 9 - Final Reconciliation and Audit For the final phase of the mission, AshBritt's experienced and diligent reconciliation and accounting team will conduct a final audit/reconciliation with either the City representatives or their designated agent (monitoring company). All truck certifications, load tickets, work logs, time sheets, invoices, and all other applicable project documentation will be reconciled to ensure all eligible work has been accurately accounted for and billed. During this phase all "exceptions" will be investigated and hashed out in order to come to an agreed upon balance for final billing. All Ash Britt recovery documentation is digitized and made available to the City for any future audit purposes. AshBritt. Inc. I Sunny Isles Beach, FL I RFP No. 08.07.01 47
