( "Prokressive ") to provide Collier )pith an increased coverage limit on Progressive's Pollution Liability Policy. Dear Mr. Ochs: This letter is being sent in regards to the correspondences that have taken place between Jeff Walker, Risk Manager Director for Collier and Russell Yates, Director of Risk Management for Progressive regarding Collier's request to Progressive to increase the amount of coverage under Progressive's Pollution Liability Policy. It is Progressive's position that Progressive does not need to increase the amount of coverage under its Pollution Liability Policy because such coverage is not required under the terms of the Franchise Agreement for Solid Waste, Recyclable Materials, and Yard Trash Collection Services, dated as of February 10, 2005 (the "Agreement ") by and bctween Collier and Progressive (by way of assigmnent from, Immokalee Disposal Company, Inc. ( "Immokalce ") to Choice Environmental Services of Collier, Inc. ( "Choice of Collier "), then from Choice to Progressive as a result of Waste Services of Florida, Inc.'s ( "WSI ") acquisition of Choice Environmental Services, Inc. ( "Choice "), parent of Choice of Collier; subsequently, WSI changed its name to Progressive, then Choice of Collier was merged into Choice with Choice remaining as the surviving corporation, and then Choice was merged into Progressive with Progressive remaining as the surviving corporation), nor is it applicable for the type of services being performed by Progressive to Collier pursuant to Agreement. Section 21.6 (page 50) of the Agreement states that " /iJf regulated quantities of Hazardous Waste are identified while carrying out this Agreement, no further )Vol* is to be performed in the area of llazardous Waste until the County's Risk Management Department has been consulted as to the potential need to procure and maintain any or all of the following coverages:" which lists Contractor's Pollution Liability coverage under subsection 21.6.1, as one of the potential coverages to be procured in this situation. 0 Progressive Waste Sotutlons 16 E10 Progressive Waste Solutions of FL, Inc. 2301 Eagle Parkway, Suite 200 Fort Worth, Texas 76177 T: 817 632 4000 F: 817 632 4540 www.progressivewaste.com However, Progressive does not haul Hazardous Waste as part of its solid waste hauling operation, in Collier County or elsewhere and is not permitted by the appropriate governing authorities to haul Hazardous Waste. Furthermore, the franchise granted to Progressive by Collier under the Agreement specifically excludes the collection of Hazardous Waste. Section 2.1 (page 10) of the Agreement grants Progressive the "exclusive franchise to provide Residential Collection Service and Commercial Collection Service" and specifically states that "[n]o other services shall be exclusive to [Progressive] ... includ[ing] [c]ollection of the Exempt Materials identified in Section 5.18 ". Section 5.18 (page 19) of the Agreement specifically includes (subsection 5.18.4) Hazardous Waste as a material exempt from the exclusive franchise granted to Progressive under the Agreement. Furthermore, Section 5.12.4 of the Agreement states "[Progressive] shall refuse to collect Solid Waste from a Customer if [Progressive] believes that the Solid Waste contains Hazardous ... Waste." Since it is apparent from the language in the Agreement that Progressive does not have an obligation to collect Hazardous Waste from any customer within the County, and in fact has an obligation to refuse to collect I lazardous Waste from customers within the County, Progressive should not be required to carry insurance that is only required for work that is to be performed in the area of Hazardous Waste. Additionally, to the best of Progressive's knowledge the County has never identified any regulated quantities of hazardous waste while carrying out the Agreement, which is a prerequisite to give rise to any potential requirement to procure additional insurance coverage prior to performing in work in the area of Hazardous Waste. Should you have any questions regarding this or if you would like to discuss this further, please feel free to contact either myself or Russell Yates at (817) 632 -4000. Sincerely, Amy I lochberger Legal Counsel Cc: Jeff Walker, Risk Manager Director for Collier via email at: jeffwalkero col Iier og v.net Russell Yates, Director of Risk Management for Progressive via email at: ryates(cc�iesi.com 16 E10 WalkerJeff From: LunclPeter Sent: Wednesday, January 29, 2014 2:42 PM To: WalkerJeff; BestLinda; MarkiewiczJoanne Cc: BelloneJoseph; RiesenTeresa Subject: RE: Collier County Jeff, I would generally agree with the conclusion's contained in the letter: 5.18 Exempt Materials The following types of Exempt Materials ®. These Exempt Materials may be collected and taken to a licensed disposal site or Recycling Facility by the owner or occupant of the Premises, or their agent, at the owner's or occupant's expense. 5.18.1 Land Clearing Debris. 5.18.2 Construction and Demolition Debris. 5.18.3Trash and debris associated with farming operations. The above states that these items are not subject to the exclusive franchise agreement, but does not state that the contractor cannot collect and haul such materials if they are appropriately permitted to do so. The parallel to this is that commercially generated recyclables are exempt and customers can go to any hauler, however our contractors are able to establish agreements with commercial customers to collect recyclables if they win that business. Section 21.6 below states that where they identify regulated quantities of hazardous waste then the listed coverages apply. 21.6 Hazardous Waste Insurance If regulated quantities of Hazardous Waste are identified while carrying out this Agreement, no further work is to be performed in the area of the Hazardous Waste until the County's Risk Management Department has been consulted as to the potential need to procure and maintain any or all of the following coverages: 21.6.1 Contractor's Pollution Liability. For sudden and gradual occurrences, in an amount no less than $5,000,000 per claim and $5,000,000 in the aggregate, arising out of the work performed under this Agreement, including, but not limited to all Hazardous Waste identified under this Agreement. 21.6.2 Asbestos Liability. For sudden and gradual occurrences and in an amount no less than $1,000,000 per claim and $1,000,000 in the aggregate, arising out of work performed under this Agreement. 21.6.3 Hazardous Waste Dis osal. When applicable, and I I or Environmental Impairment Liability Insurance, covering liability for sudden and accidental occurrences in an amount not less than $5,000,000 per claim and $5,000,000 in the aggregate, and shall include liability for non - sudden occurrences in an amount not less than $10,000,000 per claim and $10,000,000 in the aggregate. 21.6.4 Hazardous Waste Transport tion. When applicable, the Contractor shall d hauler and fhtificate Ier for automobile liability insurance with Endorsement MCS90 for liability arising out of the transportation of Hazardous Waste, with an amount not less than $1,000,000 annual aggregate, and provide a valid EPA identification number. 21.6.5 Certificates of Insurance. The certificate of insurance furnished by the Contractor shall clearly identify the hazardous material exposure work being performed under this Agreement. Based on the above I do not believe that they need coverage for 21.6.3 or 21.6.4. My question would be does the Contractor have coverage for the transportation and potential spillage of unknown hazardous waste, that was hidden in a container and not identified by the contractor? In this circumstance, is coverage provided under 21.6.1? If that is the case and they have submitted Pollution Liability coverage then in my opinion they have met the intent of the franchise agreement. [I am not qualified to determine whether the coverage they have submitted for 21.6.1 is adequate.] Let me know if you have any further questions.
