RFP Waste Disposal of Hydrovac Material

The City of Fort Worth is soliciting proposals under RFP 26-0128 to establish a non-exclusive, firm-fixed price agreement for the waste disposal of hydrovac material for the Water Department on an as-needed basis. The selected contractor will be responsible for the acceptance, transportation, and disposal of both hazardous and non-hazardous waste generated from sewer lines and storm drains at lawfully permitted facilities. Key operational requirements include maintaining a minimum capacity of two trucks per day or 100 cubic yards per week, providing 24/7 emergency response support, and ensuring strict adherence to RCRA, TCEQ, and Texas Administrative Code Chapters 330 and 335. Contractors must provide comprehensive documentation for all shipments, including manifests and written confirmation of final disposal. Proposals will be evaluated based on best value, with the highest weight placed on qualifications and company experience, followed by small business participation, the ability to meet the city's needs, the proposed method of approach, and cost. A significant emphasis is placed on socioeconomic goals, with a 30 percent small business participation goal. Submissions must be made electronically via the City's Euna Portal by April 9, 2026. Required documentation includes a series of certifications and questionnaires covering business status, litigation history, and conflict of interest disclosures. The resulting agreement will be a vendor services contract detailing indemnification, confidentiality, and regulatory compliance obligations.
