Pricing covers service fees, as-needed work budgeted at 25% of service rates, handling of broken and good pallets and mixed wood, and prices or proceeds for recyclable materials. Quantities and frequencies are estimates; CDCR does not guarantee service volume. - Operational requirements: Provide and maintain containers as needed, document pickups, deliver materials to authorized recycling facilities, and report material weights and proceeds. Rates must account for required labor, transportation, equipment, supplies, permits, fees, taxes, and other costs. Fee-for-service wood and pallet work is payable only when the contractor receives no profit upon delivery to a recycling facility. - Participation: Small and micro-business participation is encouraged. Mandatory DVBE participation is waived, though voluntary participation is encouraged.
