The solid waste department would like to be able to use a single, sole
source contractor for landfill gas construction services. This would
significantly decrease the amount of time it takes to construct gas
system expansions by eliminating the bid and approval requirements for
each individual project. This would allow the Solid Waste Department
to respond much more quickly to odor issues and regulatory deadlines.
The Solid Waste Department is recommending SCS Field Services (SCS) as
the sole source contractor to construct landfill gas system
expansions. SCS specializes in this type of work and performs
landfill gas system construction projects nationally. They are well
known to the Solid Waste Department as they have constructed at least
90% of the existing gas system infrastructure in the Phase I/II
landfill. They have typically been the low bid in every gas system
expansion project issued for bid since 2009. They have a thorough
knowledge of the mechanics and operations of landfills and landfill
gas collections systems. They are dependable, perform good quality
work, and have been flexible and responsive to the City’s needs.
The ability to mobilize SCS to Four Hills quickly will improve the
Solid Waste Departments ability to address odors and uncontrolled gas
emissions in a timely fashion, before they negatively affect the
surrounding neighbors and come to the attention of regulators.
