Comprehensive Transfer Station Evaluation Study

The City of Riverside seeks a qualified consulting firm to conduct a comprehensive evaluation of its current transfer‑station arrangement (Agua Mansa) and to examine alternative options within a 20‑30‑mile radius. The consultant will assess operations, fees, CRV revenue, transportation costs, capacity, regulatory compliance (including SB 1383), and environmental impacts, and will deliver data‑driven recommendations on whether to extend the existing contract or pursue a competitive procurement. The study must be completed within six months of award and will be paid on a milestone basis. • Review existing transfer‑station operations, fees, CRV revenue, and transport logistics. • Identify and analyze feasible alternative stations, including cost, capacity, and environmental implications. • Perform a detailed cost‑benefit analysis, including renegotiation scenarios (e.g., 100 % CRV). • Assess compliance with SB 1383 and other state/local regulations. • Produce a final report with recommendations, supporting data, and a presentation to City staff/council. • Meet eligibility requirements: ≥5 years relevant experience, California professional licenses, DIR registration, listed as a Prospective Bidder on PlanetBids, and required insurance/bonds.
