Prior to beginning work, the Contractor will be required to more fully identify each item of equipment by type, size and equipment number; the equipment number and the Contractor's name or initials must be permanently marked on each side of the vehicle at that time. Minimum letter size shall be 3 inches in height. Rates for equipment not listed in the Price Proposal must be established with the City Debris Manager before such equipment may begin working. 3.6. PHASE 2: PUBUC RIGHTS-OF-WAY DEBRIS REMOVAL 3.6.1. General The goal of Phase 2 Debris Removal is to load and haul debris from the public rights-of-way to an assigned landfill. In general, but not exclusively, this phase consists of curbside debris removal on public property only. Types of debris materials include, but are not limited to, trees, woody debris, brush, sand, gravel, building wreckage, construction and demolition (CO), personal property, and household furnishings deposited at the curb. 3.6.2. Vehicle Types/Measuring /Marking All trucks and trailers must be suitable for equipment loading. The City Debris Manager desires that the Contractor maximize the use of self-loading trucks equipped with grapples or loaders with grapple attachments to reduce potential collateral damage and to expedite the cleanup operation. Hand loading of trucks or trailers must be approved in writing by the City Debris Manager before being put into operation. The City's Debris Monitoring Contractor will measure all trucks and trailers prior to any hauling operations. The City or its designee will designate staging locations where the measurements will be taken. The Contractor will also provide a list to the City Debris Manager or its designee indicating the type of vehicle, make and model, license plate number, and equipment number, and measured maximum volume, in cubic yards, of the load bed of each piece of equipment utilized to haul debris. The measured volume of each piece of hauling equipment shall be calculated from actual internal physical measurement performed by the Contractor and a City designee. Maximum volumes may be rounded to the nearest cubic yard. One sign shall be placed on each side of the equipment. For those trucks, trailers and other equipment intended to haul debris, the maximum volume, in cubic yards, of the load bed shall also be shown. Signs shall be maintained in an easily readable fashion for the duration of the work. Minimum letter size shall be 3" in height. Maximum volume value will be verified by a City designee and his/her signature will be placed on both signs before affixing to the vehicle. Tare weights shall be determined for those trucks that will be weighed at a disposal site. All trucks and trailers utilized in hauling debris shall be equipped with a tailgate that will permit the vehicle to be loaded to capacity and effectively contain the debris on the vehicle while hauling. Sideboards, if installed, must be constructed of 2" x 6" boards or greater and may not extend more than 2-feet above the metal bedsides. Once installed all sideboard extensions must remain in place throughout the operation, or the vehicle will be re-measured and remarked. All extensions to the bed, and any exceptions to the above requirements, such as ¾” minimum plywood, must be approved in writing by the City Debris Manager. Trucks or equipment that are designated for use under this contract shall not be used for any other work. The Contractor shall not solicit work from private citizens or others to be performed in the City during the period of this contract. Under no circumstance will the Contractor mix debris hauled for others with debris hauled under this contract. 3.6.3. Other Considerations The Contractor shall assign and provide an Operations Manager (OM) to serve as the principal liaison between the City Debris Manager and the Contractor's forces. The assigned OM must be knowledgeable of all facts of the Contractor's operations and have authority in writing to commit the Contractor. The OM shall be on call 24 hours per day, seven (7) days per week and shall have electronic linkage capability for transmitting and receiving relevant contractual information and make arrangement for on site accommodations. This linkage shall provide immediate contact via cell phone, Fax machine, and have Internet capabilities. The OM will participate in daily meetings and disaster exercises, functioning as a source to provide essential element information. The OM will report to the City Debris Manager. This position will not require constant presence; rather the OM will be required to be physically capable of responding to the City Debris Manager within one hour of notification. Phase 1 Clearing will be limited to no more than 70 work hours under the Time and Materials portion of this contract. Phase 1 Clearing operations will not continue past the 70 work hours unless specifically approved in writing by the City Debris Manager. The Contractor shall be knowledgeable on the rules and regulations governing the transport of heavy equipment and oversized loads across state boundaries. An emergency situation in the City does not assure any waiver of regulations or assistance in expediting equipment transportation by other regulatory entitles. 6
