Explanation

This legislation authorizes the Director of the Department of Public Utilities (DPU) to modify an existing contract with Total Compliance, LLC for Hazardous Waste Operations and Emergency Response (HAZWOPER) Training Services to provide all training and materials necessary to provide HAZWOPER Technician and Operations level courses, refresher sessions, and hazardous materials awareness classes for the Department of Public Utilities.

The U.S. Department of Labor/Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has established federal safety and health standards for hazardous waste operations and emergency response in public sector (state and local government) workplaces and the State of Ohio has adopted these standards (Ohio Administrative Code (OAC) 4167-3-01 and OAC 4167-3-04). In the normal operations of the Department of Public Utilities, there are various substances and waste that require proper disposal for compliance with these regulations.

The Department of Public Utilities advertised and solicited competitive bids in accordance with Section 329 of the Columbus City Code (Solicitation RFQ000888). Total Compliance, LLC was the lowest, responsive, responsible and best bidder. The original contract was in effect from the date of execution to May 31, 2017 and allowed for two additional one-year extensions. The Department is pleased with Total Compliance, LLC’s performance and would like to modify the original contract to extend the term for the first of two possible extensions and increase the funding by $21,600.00 for the additional year for a total of $43,200.00.
