Contract source

Description

The Metropolitan District Commission (MDC) is seeking qualified contractors to remove liquid sludge from its Poquonock wastewater treatment facility in Windsor, CT, and transport it to the regional solids receiving facility at the Hartford WPCF. Each collection day (scheduled Thursdays) will involve loading between 26,000‑32,500 gallons of sludge, with each haul required to carry a minimum of 6,500 gallons. The work includes scheduled loading, transport, and delivery of the sludge to the receiving site, adhering to a set schedule throughout the calendar year. This is an Invitation‑to‑Bid (ITB) procurement, with bids due in early November 2024 and the award slated for mid‑April 2025. • Scope: Liquid sludge removal and transport from Windsor to Hartford facilities. • Frequency: Weekly (Thursdays) throughout the year, each day handling 4‑5 loads of ≥6,500 gal. • Requirements: Qualified waste‑handling contractor capable of safe loading, transport, and delivery of hazardous‑type liquid waste.

Contract value

$500,000

The solicitation expects 26,000‑32,500 gal per collection day, with a minimum haul size of 6,500 gal. Assuming an average of 4 loads per day (≈26,000 gal) over 52 Thursdays yields roughly 1.35 million gallons annually. If a typical transport rate for liquid sludge is between $0.30‑$0.40 per gallon, the annual cost would range from $400,000‑$540,000. Using a midpoint of $0.37 per gallon gives an estimate of about $500,000 for the contract’s first year. This ballpark figure accounts for fuel, labor, equipment wear, and disposal fees, but excludes any potential overtime or special handling surcharges.
