- All C&D debris shall be collected and disposed of in a safe manner. It will be separated accordingly imd hauled to the appropriate landfill(s). o J. EOUIPMENT Mechanically loaded trucks and trailers will be used, from small yardage capacity to seventy (70) plus cubic yard capacity. The number of pieces of hauling equipment initially mobilized will be thirty (30) plus with fifteen (15) loaders. The evaluation for the need of additional equipment will be conducted daily. If the need for additional equipment is needed, it can be provided within six (6) hours. K. CONSTRUCTING TOWERS Because of safety concerns of people climbing observation towers, it has been recommended by some FEMA personnel that man lifts be used as opposed to these towers. We have adopted this policy and will rent man lifts capable of accommodating 3 to 4 observers. In addition, we will provide an approved cover for the man lift if none is provided with the rental. Although this is our standard policy, we ill construct the needed towers to the specification requirements of the U. S. Army Corp of Engineers if the applicant deems this preferable. L. PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENTS/NOTICES ON PROPOSAL VENUES o We will provide weekly notices of the debris removal schedule via advertisements in the Sunday edition of the local paper each week during the duration of the contract. These schedules will be coordinated with the Contract Administrator. Additionally, we will advertise these notices on local radio stations for a minimum of 30 seconds each and will run these advertisements a minimum of 3 days per week. All notices will be approved by the Contract Administrator prior to release and will contain a description of work to be performed, how debris should be places on the right-of-way, what is considered eligible debris, and the schedule for debris removal. M. TRACKING AND RECORDING WORK FOR INVOICE AND AUDIT PURPOSES Daily reports are necessary to track the quantities of debris processed each day and to monitor any potential problems that may develop. Using our unique computerized program in tracking and invoicing all work, we have seldom had any discrepancies and, in the event of discrepancy, have been able to quickly and efficiently resolve it. Daily reports, in both paper and electronic version, will be submitted to the appropriate official(s) each morning for review of the previous day's activities. In addition, we will designate one person for each collection site to assist the applicant in monitoring each debris ticket as it is written. This process insures officials of quick and accurate reimbursements from FEMA or other government agencies by allowing review of the applicant's records with those of TAG Grinding Services, Inc. to alleviate discrepancies when invoicing federal agencies. Before final payment is made, we will provide the Contract Administrator with a release of claims and certification that all subcontractors of TAG, as well as all suppliers of both TAG and its subcontractors, have been paid. o We are currently developing additional software that will enable us to use "smart cards". This program is per recommendations from FEMA and will further eliminate discrepancies that may occur with current paper/electronic documentation. All loads will be designated at the origination point with GPS location, which will assist in the qualification of debris and expedite reimbursement from FEMA. Furthermore, this program provides for full electronic data storage at both loading and dumping sites and can be downloaded daily, or at any required time, directly into applicant computers. .
