Explanation
BACKGROUND: This legislation authorizes the Finance and Management Director to modify a contract on behalf of the Facilities Management Division with Ohio Technical Services, Inc. for removal of hazardous and non-hazardous waste materials. The contract was formally bid through SA004286. It was not bid for a particular building, but encompassed all buildings under the purview of Facilities Management. Legislation was not necessary earlier because the contract did not exceed $20,000.00.
A modification of the contract is necessary for the remediation of hazardous materials at 757 Carolyn Avenue. This modification will provide additional funding for the removal and disposal of 8,928 square feet of carpet, floor tile, mastics, and associated glue layers.
In addition, this legislation will provide funding for the removal of hazardous and non-hazardous waste materials at 640 Nationwide Boulevard. The contractor will dispose of cleaning solution and carpet cleaner, used oil, oil-based paint, and other hazardous/non-hazardous waste materials.
Ohio Technical Services, Inc. was chosen to perform this work because it is the Facilities Management Division's current contractor for inspection, testing, removal and/or remediation of asbestos, lead, mold, and hazardous materials. Therefore it would not be in the best interest of the City to select another vendor to complete this work. Prices already established in the contract were used to determine the cost of this modification.
EMERGENCY ACTION is requested to ensure that disposal of hazardous and non-hazardous waste materials can occur in accordance with federal and state regulations.
Ohio Technical Services, Inc. Contract Compliance No. 31-1640431, expiration date December 18, 2014.
Fiscal Impact: The cost of this modification is $90,000.00. Funding is budgeted and available within the 2013 Facilities Management Operating Budget.
