two.2.14) Additional information

The value included in sections II.1.5 and II.2.6 is the estimated value of the contract if the full term of the contract including extension was utilised (15 months). This has been prepared on the basis that:. . 1. The current residual waste streams (being dealt with by the current haulage contractor) continue for the full 15 months (estimated volume 35,000 tonnes in total); . . 2. Some additional waste streams are added to the contract during the extended term of the contract (estimated volume 9275 tonnes in total);. . 3. For the first three months of the contract (the Initial Term), the current residual waste streams are to be hauled to the existing Nominated Treatment and/or Disposal Site(s); and. . 4. For the extended term, the Nominated Treatment and /or Disposal Site(s) (to which the contract waste is to be hauled) may change and the Authority has based its calculation of the value of the contract on the basis of the furthest away Nominated Treatment and/or Disposal Site(s) that the Authority believes may be utilised (which vary between waste streams).. . Tenderers should note that this estimate has been prepared at the current time, based on the Authority’s reasonable expectations, but that the quantities of waste, the precise location of the Nominated Treatment and/or Disposal Site(s), in addition to the timing of the introduction of any additional waste streams being included in the contract may vary. The value of the contract may therefore be greater than this estimate if larger volumes of waste are collected and/or greater volumes of additional waste streams (as envisaged by the contract) are included within the services.”.
