Specifications include, but are not limited to: The selected Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR) will provide pre-construction and construction services. The CMAR will work closely with the city and city’s design professional and will be an integral part of the project team during all phases of this project. The City of Glendale Municipal Landfill (GML), located at 11480 West Glendale Avenue, is owned, and operated by the City of Glendale. The permitted footprint consists of two areas: the south area (approximately 140 acres) and the north expansion area (approximately 120 acres). The Arizona Department of Environmental Quality (ADEQ) approved the entire footprint as a landfill under the 1986 Environmental Quality Act. Based on an annual landfill financial assurance report, the GML has approximately another 40 years disposal capacity. Landfill operations are nearly complete in the south area, with operations already started in the north area. The excavation of the second north cell area (Phase II) will be completed before July 2024, making it ready for the installation of a geosynthetic composite liner system, approximately 30 acres. This project will also include subgrade preparation, compacted soil fill, and the installation of additional infrastructure for the extension of an existing leachate collection/removal system (LCRS), gas header system, and work on the existing haul roads, as needed. The Phase II liner system is scheduled to be completed before the end of 2024.
