Disaster-Related Debris Management Services

The County of Orange, in partnership with the Orange County Flood Control District and collaborating cities, is seeking a contractor to provide comprehensive disaster-related debris management services under a multi-jurisdictional plan designed to ensure rapid and coordinated response to major events such as wildfires, earthquakes, storms, post-fire debris flows, and tsunamis. The scope of work includes the collection, processing, and disposal of diverse debris types across public property and rights-of-way in unincorporated areas and participating cities, utilizing a combined approach of county, city, and contracted resources. The contractor must be fully prepared to manage a large-scale workforce, finance all operational expenses upfront before reimbursement, maintain an established management team and resource network, and secure all necessary bonds and insurance. Compliance with federal, state, and local laws and codes is mandatory, and the contractor is required to work in tandem with an independent debris monitoring service to validate equipment usage, load volumes, and materials collected in support of FEMA reimbursement processes. All activities must align with safety standards including Cal/OSHA regulations for fall protection, PPE, crane operations, trench safety, hazard communication, and confined space entry, with inspections conducted on-site by the contractor to ensure ongoing compliance. The contract is solicited under number 080-3049401-RN by OC Public Works in Santa Ana, California, with responses due by August 14, 2026. The NAICS code 562910 indicates the nature of the service falls under waste collection and remediation. While the solicitation details performance expectations and regulatory obligations, it lacks specific pricing data, contract value estimates, delivery schedules, or formal clause references such as FAR sections or DFARS provisions. The contract type, payment office details, accounting codes, and invoicing systems are not specified, though reimbursement is tied to the FEMA process through verified debris data. No formal evaluation factors, attachments, representations from offerors, or special requirements like key personnel or OCI clauses are included. The place of performance encompasses public areas throughout Orange County, and the contractor must operate within this jurisdiction without defined FOB terms or packaging standards. The contracting office serves as the primary point of contact, with the Emergency Manager and Procurement Contract Specialist available for inquiries, but no designated COR, COTR, or PCO is named in the documentation.
