Leachate VEAT - Multi-Operator Framework Agreement for Leachate Haulage from Kirdiffstown Land fill

The Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) originally followed an open tender process in order to identify the successful tenderer in order to establish a framework agreement for Leachate Haulage Services so that the EPA could remediate the site further to section 56 of the Waste Management Act 1996 (as amended) These services will include the provision of a road haulage service to transport liquid waste by tanker from a waste management facility near Naas, co Kildare, to a wastewater treatment works within 50km of the site. -Collection of leachate by connecting the road tanker to an existing on-site standpipe and filling using the haulier’s lorry-mounted pump; -Exchange of chain of custody paperwork and liaising with site security staff; -Delivery of the leachate to the nominated wastewater treatment plant; -Taking bottle samples and delivery of samples to a nominated laboratory for analysis; -discharge of the load and further custody paperwork, all in liaison with the treatment plant operator. The anticipated frequency is two 25 tonne loads per day, excluding Sundays and public holidays. The leachate is hazardous (EWC code 19 07 02) and strict safety measures will apply. Vehicles, crew and all operations must accord with the Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road Act and relevant Regulations. This framework was originally valued at 1,000,000 - 1,500,000 for the duration of the framework. It is intending following the completion of this framework that a contracting authority will go to the market for a unified Leachate Haulage and treatment framework in the coming months.
