Specifications include, but are not limited to: 1. The County of Lexington is soliciting proposals from qualified offerors for a term contract for pumping of wastewater from an 8,000-gallon storage tank (UST), and a 10,000-gallon storage tank (UST) located at the Edmund Landfill Transfer Station and hauling to a designated wastewater disposal site. This wastewater is generated from the wash down of the floor area, rainwater and domestic waste. Approximately 49,800 gallons of wastewater were disposed of in past fiscal years. Additionally, the qualified offeror will be required to pump solids from the bottom of both tanks and haul to a designated disposal site for processing, approximately once per year. 2. The successful offeror must have the ability to pump into their hauling vehicle through a 4” suction pipe from the two separate wastewater tanks, transport and discharge the wastewater from the Transfer Station facilities to a wastewater treatment plant (WTP). 3. Wastewater from the County’s older Transfer Station collects in an 8,000-gallon underground storage tank (UST) equipped with an alarm device, which will provide a visual and audible signal when the tank reaches 50 percent capacity (4,000 gallons) and 75 percent (6000 gallons). Wastewater from the new transfer station expansion collects in a 10,000-gallon underground storage tank (UST) equipped with an alarm device, which will provide a visual and audible signal when the tank reaches 50 percent capacity (5,000 gallons) and 80 percent capacity (8,000 gallons). The Transfer Station will notify the successful offeror when either UST has reached 50 percent capacity and that the UST may be evacuated.
