RE:Waste Tire Removal Bid Approval for Box Elder Little Mountain MSW LandfillSW091
Dear Ms. Nelson:
The Division of Waste Management and Radiation Control (Division) has completed its review of the bid to remove waste tires from the Box Elder Little Mountain MSW Landfill. The bid submitted
by Liberty Tire Recycling, LLC (Liberty Tire) is acceptable at $3.82 per ton per mile based on 72 miles one way between the pickup location and Liberty Tire in Salt Lake City, Utah.
With this approval letter, please contact Liberty Tire and the Division with a scheduled start date for this project.
Upon completion of the work, documentation must be submitted to the Division for authorization of payment, which shall be calculated based on the miles one way between the location of
the waste tire pile and the recycler. Invoices from Liberty Tire to show proof of receipt of the waste tires at the recycler will also be needed. Subsection 19-6-811(7) of the Utah Code
requires that the operator of the state or local government landfill or transfer station shall submit to the Director a statement providing the following:
(a) the number or tons of waste tires removed from the landfill or transfer station;
(b) the location from which the waste tires were removed;
(c) the recycler to which the waste tires were delivered; and
(d) if applicable, the amount charged by a third-party waste tire transporter or recycler to transport the waste tires to the recycler.
Upon receipt of the above information and the determination that the information is complete, authorization will be given to the Utah Division of Finance to reimburse the waste tire
transporter or recycler.
(Over)
If you have any questions, please contact Alex Milne at amilne@utah.gov or by phone at (801) 599-4672.
