Scrap Electrical Equipment

Clark Public Utilities is seeking quotes for the sale, removal, and recycling of scrap oil-filled electrical equipment located at its Operations Center in Vancouver, Washington. The scope includes equipment with PCB concentrations of less than 1 PPM and those between 1 and 50 PPM, which may be awarded as separate contracts. The successful bidder will be responsible for the loading, hauling, transporting, storing, and recycling of these materials, with a strict requirement that metal components be smelted and oil be recycled into base stock or new products. Any oil that cannot be dechlorinated to less than 1 PPM must be sent to a qualified incinerator per 40 CFR 761.3. All materials must be removed within 20 calendar days of notification during regular business hours. The contract has an initial base period from January 1, 2027, through December 31, 2027, with options for two additional one-year extensions. Awards will be based on the overall best interest of the Utility, evaluating proposed pricing and past performance with other Washington PUDs. Bidders must provide evidence of EPA and state permits for all receiving facilities and subcontractors, as well as comprehensive insurance coverage including pollution and automobile liability. Transport requires flatbed trailers with sideboards and personnel trained in hazardous materials and spill response. Title and sole ownership transfer to the bidder once the truck is loaded and shipping papers are signed, at which point the bidder assumes all associated liabilities. Quotes must be submitted via email using the official quotation form by 2:00 PM on November 5, 2026.
