Introduction
RAS Construction is a Florida Corporation one hundred percent minority owned
and operated. In addition, it is a Disadvantaged Business Enterprise with an
excellent reputation. The leaders are individuals that have specialized in disaster
recovery since 1992. The RAS Team is prepared to commit all of its resources in
the event of a natural disaster. Their experience and effort to make the difference
have been proven and recognized. Be certain that the RAS Team will work
together with the City of Sunny Isles Beach to get the Emergency Debris Disposal
Program working quickly and efficiently.
1. TECHNICAL COMPETENCE
a. The project team's overall technical competency.
The RAS Team is knowledgeable and can assist in providing the necessary
information to run a satisfactory operation. RAS understands the relationship
between local governments and the Federal Emergency Management
Administration (FEMA), when responding to a disaster situation and strictly
manages their clean up operations so that all FEMA requirements are met.
Furthermore, RAS has grown in this particular line of work by starting from the
bottom and working up the ladder of success. The RAS team can remove an
average of3,500 cubic yards of debris daily from the public right of way due to
their efforts and experience.
b. The project manager's specific technical competency.
Mr. Pedro Pelaez, President ofRAS, has been involved in emergency disaster
services since 1992. Mr. Pelaez has an impressive back round when it comes to
debris removal. His managerial skills and ideas were excersized in many
occassions. For example, after Hurricane Andrew he operated temporary disposal
sites where an estimated 2 million cubic yards of debris was reduced by burning.
A combination of 5 underground and above ground air curtain burners plus 5
chipping operations were used. Mr. Pelaez simultaneously managed a construction
debris seperation site and oversaw the demolition and cleanup of devestated
homes condemned by building officials. Several of the government officials
served by Mr. Pelaez recognized the excellence of his service with letter of
appreciation and commendation. (See Attached)
2. PROJECT UNDERSTANDING AND APPROACH
a. The firm's thorough understanding of the scope of work.
In order to accomplish the scope of work RAS will use its resources to get the job
done. This will include dump trucks, equipment, and personnel. The plan of action
is for RAS to conduct and/or monitor partners, affiliates, subcontractors and
personnel in order to maximize productivity in the debris disposal operation. The
RAS Team is also familiar with the FEMA bureaucratic process which can be a
guidance of intangible benefit.
b. The firms identification of any significant projects issues.
A signi ficant issue RAS has in question is the disposal site location. There are
limited locations near Sunny Isles Beach where debris can be stored and
destroyed. This is a unique situation because if the debris must be hauled to the
Cities of Miami or Doral it will cause for the debris removal process to be
extended and more expensive. A possible solution for the City of Sunny Isles
Beach may be to consider using Southern Waste Systems located in Dania as a
disposal site. This location is convenient due to the traffic issues in Miami and the
overall interest of the City of Sunny Isles Beach.
c. The practicality of the firm's approach.
The Ras team stands by the most effective approach, meaning that each situation is
different and that there is no standard. In the past, what has given the best results
is to have lots of communication, all personnel ready at key locations and
consistent monitoring of all aspects of the operation. Still, the RAS team is
flexible and open to new ideas or strategies.
3. A V AILABILITY OF STAFF
a. The firm's ability to have staff readily available for the project.
In the event of a natural disaster RAS is prepared to dedicate its staff solely to this
project. When Hurricane Katrina passed South Florida, almost immediately, the
RAS team was in the right of ways cleaning up debris. All of the personnel needed
at that particular time was gathered and put to work following the storm.
Presently, RAS is providing 60 trucks and 8 crews that are readily available in
case of a natural disaster.
b. The firm's ability to keep staff readily available for the project.
If a natural disaster should occur the principles ofRAS are available 24 hours a
day and 7 days a week. The RAS team will definitely have a representative
available to discuss the project on site at anytime. Communication is key at the
time of such project. After Hurricane Andrew the staff worked on the Emergency
Debris disposal project for approximately six months. In the efforts of a quick
cleanup and efficient process the RAS team does not combine any other projects
with the emergency debris removal project.
4. EXPERIENCE WITH FEMA REQUIREMENTS
a. The firm's familiarity/experience with all FEMA requirements.
The RAS team is familiar with the FEMA process both on a public and private
perspective. Also, RAS has the ability to enhance their team with former
professional public administrators, like former fire chief from Miami Beach and
the former Assistant City Manager from the City of Miami, who guided South
Florida's cleanup efforts after Hurricane Andrew and learned the FEMA process
intimately well through these responsibilities. Their public sector expertise can
also be put at the disposal of the City of Sunny Isles Beach.
Tracking the day to day operation is imperative for the collection of funds. Below
are the requirements and/or tracking systems that must be implemented in order
receive funds for eligible work.
Dump Trucks
Prior to loading debris, dump trucks must be registered. A sticker is placed on the
registered dump trucks which display a designated job number, truck number and
the maximum amount of cubic yards of debris the truck can haul. When the trucks
are loaded the driver receives a ticket from the debris monitor which he must give
to the disposal site monitor in order to unload the debris.
Debris Monitor
Daily the debris monitor is given a map of the work area that can be cleaned up.
The monitor must highlight the streets they work on each day. Every time a truck
is loaded with debris and properly covered (for safety reasons) a ticket is issued by
the monitor.
J
Disposal Site Monitor
When each dump truck arrives at the disposal site the monitor must check the load.
Here the monitor writes on the ticket what percentage of the trucks capacity is
filled. The percentage is what determines how much will be paid for that load of
debris.
In Addition FEMA Req uires
1. To conduct random monitoring of all areas of the load sites and disposal sites.
2. Provide documentation to substantiate debris quantities
3. Notify everyone of compliance issues and corrective actions.
5. PERFORMANCE ISSUES
a. The comparison of firm's payment request to receipts for past four years.
Amounts Amounts
requested from received Explanation
FEMA
For the Emergency Debris Disposal following Hurricane
Katrina RAS decided to BID the said amount because it was a
$20.00 per cubic $19.85 per cubic substantial price and previously they received that amount for
yard of debris yard of debris their services after Hurricane Andrew. FEMA believed it was
over priced but after many negotiations they finalized the
contract amount at $19.85 per cubic yard of debris.
For the Emergency Debris Disposal following Hurricane
$19.85 per cubic $19.85 per cubic Wilma again RAS BID for the most amount of money received
yard of debris yard of debris during Hurricane Katrina because there was a short amount
of time between one and the other. RAS knew it would be
nearlv impossible to aet a hiaher contract amount.
During the Emergency Debris Disposal of Hurricane Wilma
FEMA announced that they must lower contract amounts due
$16.00 per cubic $15.00 per cubic to the unexpected amount of money it was costing them to
yard of debris yard of debris cleanup the debris. FEMA proposed a change to $14.00 per
cubic yard but after many negotiations they finalized the
contract amount at $15.00 per cubic yard of debris.

Re: RAS Investment d/b/a RAS Construction-Hurricane Debris
Removal
To Whom It May Concern:
Hurricanes Katrina and Wilma struck MIami-Dade County this past
year, leaving millions of cubic yards of vegetative debris in their
wake. The debris clean-up process for these storms was completed
on December 23, 2005.
RAS was one of the Departmenfs prime debris removal
contractors. Their assigned work: area included a significant portion
of the northeast section of the County's Solid Waste Collection
Service .A.rea. RAS completed all of its assigned areas and
performed at a high standard of quality.
The Department of Solid Waste Management (OSWM) appreciates
the efforts of RAS in making this project a success and thanks them
for a job wefi done.
Sincerely,
~~~-
