Summary & Background This contract provides post closure services to Fulton County for FY2025 for two (2) municipal solid waste landfills: 1) Merk Miles located in Southwest Fulton County and 2) Morgan Falls located in Sandy Springs.

 

Scope of Work: Contract provides all necessary professional services, project management, and administrative support to implement and monitor post closure services for the scope of work as indicated in the following areas: 

 

A. Project Management, Scheduling, Recordkeeping and Reporting

B. Implementation of Health and Safety Programs

C. Landfill Compliance Inspections

D. Landfill Gas System (LFG) Management

E. Methane Monitoring and Reporting

F. Groundwater and Surface Water Monitoring and Reporting

G. Landfill Maintenance at Merk Miles and Morgan Falls Landfills

 

All work shall be performed in compliance with the guidelines set forth by the Georgia Department of Environmental Protection Division (GA EPD).

 

Community Impact: Without this contract, the County's citizens would experience environmental hazards emanating from the landfills.

 

Department Recommendation: The Department of Real Estate and Asset Management recommends approval.

 

After reviewing one (1) qualified firm’s proposal, the evaluation and consideration of all available information related to the requirements and evaluation criteria of the RFP and the Evaluation Committee has determined that the following proposal submitted by Atlantic Coast Consulting, Inc. is the recommended contractor.

 

A single bid analysis was conducted, and the Department of Purchasing & Contract Compliance has determined it is in the County’s best interest to proceed with awarding this procurement.

 

The requested spending authority in the total amount of $806,000.00 is an increase of $59,300.00 over 2024 for landfill post closure services.  The spending authority in the total amount of $806,000.00 for FY2025 is being requested to cover the costs for landfill post closure services in the amount of $490,000.00, and an additional $316,000.00 is needed for the Morgan Falls dam/pond demolition that has recently been mandated by the GA EPD. The Morgan Falls landfill has an existing large dam and detention pond structure which are deteriorating.  

 

Project Implications: County would face serious penalties from the Georgia Department of Natural Resources, Environmental Protection Division if the services provided by this contract are not performed.

 

Community Issues/Concerns: None that the Department is aware.

 

Department Issues/Concerns: If this contract is not approved, the County does not have the ability to provide the required post-closure services and would be in violation of GA EPD regulations.
