<br />REV: 03-16-18 MI <br />ATTY/AGR/2018.054/RECOLOGY OF SAN MATEO <br />Page 59 of 119 <br />Occupants of property served by Contractor, for damages to property including, but 2383 <br />not limited to, Containers. In the event such damage shall have been caused by the 2384 <br />negligence or intentional acts of Contractor, its officers, agents, or employees, 2385 <br />Contractor shall promptly repair or replace such damaged property. The provisions 2386 <br />of this Section 8.02.H shall not be deemed a limitation upon any other provisions of 2387 <br />this Agreement, or any rights or remedies which may accrue to Agency by reason of 2388 <br />Contractor’s acts or omissions to act hereunder. Contractor is required to repair 2389 <br />damage and/or resolve claims regarding damage to property within thirty (30) Days 2390 <br />of receipt of the Complaint. 2391 <br />This Section 8.02.H shall not apply to damage to public or private roads or driveways 2392 <br />caused by the weight of Contractor’s vehicles. If a Customer requests Contractor to 2393 <br />provide on-premises (i.e., non-Curbside) service, and in doing so would require 2394 <br />Contractor to drive its Collection vehicle on a private road or driveway, then, as a 2395 <br />condition to providing that service, Contractor shall require the Customer, property 2396 <br />owner, or other responsible party to sign a reasonable waiver releasing Contractor 2397 <br />from liability for such damage. 2398 <br />I. Litter Abatement 2399 <br />1. Minimization of Spills. If any Solid Waste, Targeted Recyclable Materials, or 2400 <br />Organic Materials are spilled or scattered during Collection or transportation 2401 <br />operations, the Contractor shall promptly clean up all spilled and scattered 2402 <br />materials. Contractor shall use due care to prevent vehicle oil, vehicle fuel, or 2403 <br />other liquids from being spilled during Collection or transportation operations 2404 <br />including maintenance of the Collection vehicles to minimize and correct any 2405 <br />leaks. Contractor shall ensure that all liquid spills or leaked liquids or fluids are 2406 <br />cleaned up promptly on the same day that they occur. 2407 <br />Contractor shall not transfer loads from one vehicle to another on any public 2408 <br />street, unless it is necessary to do so because of mechanical failure, emergency 2409 <br />(e.g., combustion of material in the vehicle), accidental damage to a vehicle, or 2410 <br />unless approved by the Agency. 2411 <br />2. Clean-Up. During Collection operations, the Contractor shall clean-up litter in 2412 <br />the immediate vicinity of any Container storage area (including the areas where 2413 <br />Containers are delivered for Collection) if Contractor’s actions are the cause of 2414 <br />the litter. Each Collection vehicle shall be equipped with protective gloves, a 2415 <br />broom, and shovel at all times for cleaning up litter. Absorbent material shall be 2416 <br />carried on each Collection vehicle at all times and used by Contractor for 2417 <br />cleaning up liquid spills. The Contractor shall document and discuss instances 2418 <br />of repeated spillage not caused by it with the Customer where spillage occurs, 2419 <br />and Contractor shall report such instances to Agency. If the Contractor has 2420 <br />attempted to have a Customer stop creating spillage but is unsuccessful, the 2421 <br />Agency will attempt to rectify such situation with the Customer. Contractor shall 2422 <br />coordinate with Agency regarding Agency street cleaning activities to minimize 2423 <br />litter. 2424 <br />3. Covering of Loads. Contractor shall cover all open Drop Boxes with an Agency-2425 <br />approved cover, at the Collection location before transporting materials to the 2426 <br />Designated Transfer and Processing Facility. 2427 <br />6.2.B. - Page 72
