Maximum Contamination Levels <br />Material Category Maximum Contamination <br />Level (% by weight) <br />Commercial Source Separated or Targeted <br />Recyclable Materials <br />10% <br />MFD and Commercial Plant Materials 5% <br />Single-Family Organic Materials 5% <br />Commercial Organic Materials 10% <br />If two (2) or more loads from the same route are brought to Shoreway Recycling and 1308 <br />Disposal Center in a given month with Contamination Levels greater than those 1309 <br />specified in Table 1, Contractor shall visually inspect materials at the point of 1310 <br />Collection on that route to identify the source of the Contamination. If the source can 1311 <br />be identified, Contractor shall follow up with the Customer(s) that need further 1312 <br />assistance to reduce Contamination and to resolve the Contamination issue. At any 1313 <br />time, the SBWMA may request for the sampling of a load of materials. 1314 <br />C. Inspecting for Excessive Contamination in Single Loads 1315 <br />The Operator will inspect loads of materials delivered to Shoreway Recycling and 1316 <br />Disposal Center. The Operator may set aside for sampling a load of material that 1317 <br />appears to exceed the Contamination Levels in Table 1. 1318 <br />When setting aside a load for sampling, the Operator will document the truck number, 1319 <br />the date and time of delivery, and will take a photograph of the load. The methodology 1320 <br />for sampling of single loads is set forth in Attachment E. 1321 <br />If an entire load is sorted to determine Contamination, as contemplated by 1322 <br />subsections D and E below, then Contractor or its representative shall have the right 1323 <br />to be present at, observe, and photograph and video all aspects of the sort. 1324 <br />D. Supplemental Processing Fee for Excessive Contamination in Salvageable 1325 <br />Single Loads 1326 <br />If a load of materials is determined based on (1) sorting of the entire load, or (2) 1327 <br />sample testing pursuant to Section 6.02.C to contain Contamination in excess of the 1328 <br />levels specified in Table 1, but is determined by the SBWMA to be salvageable, 1329 <br />Contractor shall be required to pay SBWMA a supplemental processing fee of $25.00 1330 <br />per Ton for the load. 1331 <br />The supplemental processing fees shall be adjusted annually by the Annual Index 1332 <br />Change in CPI-U in the same manner described in Attachment K. 1333 <br />E. Payment of Transfer, Transportation, and Disposal of Unsalvageable Single 1334 <br />Loads 1335 <br />If a load of materials is determined based on (1) sorting of the entire load, or (2) 1336 <br />sample testing pursuant to Section 6.02.C to contain Contamination in excess of 1337 <br />the levels specified in Table 1, and is determined by SBWMA to be unsalvageable, 1338 <br />Contractor shall reimburse SBWMA for the cost of transfer, transportation, and 1339 <br />Disposal of the load, which shall be calculated as the weight of the load multiplied 1340 <br />6.2.B. - Page 47
