Description

As a Waste Disposal Authority, Kent County Council has a statutory responsibility to dispose of waste collected by the Waste Collection Authorities, of which includes Street Sweepings ("SS") and Highway Mechanical Arisings ("HMA") collected by a street sweeper vehicle.

The Provider will be required to have in place:
• a waste processing facility with appropriate permitting and planning permissions;
• an electronic weighbridge for the weighing-in of material delivered to their facility to provide the Council with the appropriate management information (including weigh-loader transaction listings);
• policies and procedures that recover materials in accordance with the waste hierarchy to maximise reuse and recycling and to avoid sending any waste to landfill; and
• robust service contingency plans to ensure continuity of services in the event of plant failure, etc.

The Contract is for an initial period of two years, with a potential extension option of up to a further two years.
