12 483433v3 NE136-8 If the Contractor chooses to distribute its own public education information, the educational materials must first be reviewed by the City Code Enforcement Official or other employee designated by the City. The Contractor shall demonstrate commitment to the promotion of responsible waste management through participation in community events, for example, by initiating and providing collection opportunities for recyclable materials at City-sponsored events. The Contractor shall conduct its own promotions and public education to increase participation and improve compliance with City-specified resident preparation instructions. At a minimum, this shall include distribution of resident education tags to be left by curbside collection crews if any non-targeted material is rejected and left at the curb. The Contractor shall submit a draft of any public education literature for approval by the City, at least one month before printing and distribution of any such literature. The Contractor will also provide articles for the City newsletters, some recycling promotional items, and appear on local access programming if requested by the City. 2.24 SCORE Recycling Grant Compliance The City receives a SCORE recycling grant from Ramsey County that is used to partially fund the City’s recycling program. In order to receive the SCORE recycling grant, the City’s recycling program must meet certain requirements. In the event that the SCORE recycling grant requirements change, the City and the Contractor agree that they will meet and discuss the implementation of these requirements so that the City can remain in compliance with the SCORE recycling grant requirements and whether any amendments to this Agreement are necessary in order to implement the requirements. 3. MATERIALS PROCESSING AND MARKETING 3.1 Processing Facilities Must Be Specified It is intended that all recyclable materials collected by the Contractor will go to recycling markets to be manufactured into recycled content products. The Contractor shall assure the City that adequate recyclable material processing capacity will be provided for City material collected. The Contractor shall provide written notice to the City at least 60 days in advance of any substantial change in these or subsequent plans for receiving and processing recyclable materials collected from the City. Upon collection, the Contractor shall deliver the designated recyclable materials to a recyclable material processing center, an end market for sale or reuse, or to an intermediate collection center for later delivery to a processing center or end market. It is unlawful for any person to transport for disposal or to dispose of designated recyclable materials in a mixed municipal solid waste disposal facility.
