- Examples of such products may include, but are not limited to, products described in U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) guidelines at 40 C.F.R. Parts 247-253, implementing section 6002 of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, as amended, 42 U.S.C. § 6962. Suppliers shall include this provision in all its subcontracts, with the requirement that it shall flow down to all subcontracts regardless of tier.
- These efforts must be consistent with maintaining a satisfactory level of competition unless the supplier determines that such items: (1) are not reasonably available in a reasonable period of time; (2) fail to meet reasonable performance standards, which shall be determined on the basis of the guidelines of the National Institute of Standards and Technology, if applicable to the item; or (3) are only available at an unreasonable price.
- Overview —
The following instructions, terms and conditions apply to all bids or other such offers to provide construction services, services, or goods to Washington County.
- Clean Air Construction – Fleet Registration and Compliance Determination —
- In February of 2020, Washington County adopted the Clean Air Construction (CAC) Standard (www.portlandoregon.gov/cac). As such, all diesel nonroad equipment over 25hp and all diesel concrete mixers and dump trucks used on this project will need to meet the CAC requirements.
- Best Available Control Technology (BACT) approach means that for that specific vehicle or piece of equipment, that among all potential options, the emission control device that maximizes diesel particulate matter reductions was installed. A “DPF or equivalent” emission control device is defined as capturing diesel particulate matter at a level of 85% or greater.
- Prior to the submission deadline, the bidder/proposer shall register their CAC-applicable construction nonroad equipment and on-road vehicles in The Yard, https:/heyard.clean-air.app/, the CAC equipment registration and compliance portal. Details on how to register can be found online at: [enter link]. Failure to register may result in bid/proposal rejection. Registration involves knowing the following about each piece of applicable equipment/vehicle in your fleet:
- Equipment Type (e.g. excavator, dozer, loader)
- Fuel Type (diesel, electric, gasoline, hybrid electric, propane, etc.)
- On-Road or Nonroad
- Make
- Model Year
- Horsepower
- For diesel engines: Any aftermarket emissions control devices installed? (if yes, indicate type of control device, e.g. DOC, DPF, etc.).
- After the Notice of Intent to Award is posted, the successful Contractor will be invited to assign all applicable subcontractors and suppliers (including any equipment rental firms) to the project through The Yard. Subcontractors and suppliers will need to register the equipment and vehicles from their fleets in The Yard. At this time, the successful Contractor and their applicable subcontractors and suppliers may request an exemption for a specific piece of equipment or vehicle if it meets one of the following exemption request criteria:
- After following a BACT approach, the required emission control device would obscure operator lines of
sight or otherwise impact worker safety or the equipment is not able to be retrofit with a verified
emission control device; or - No compliant rental equipment is available within 100 miles of the job site; or
- After following a BACT approach, the Contractor can demonstrate that due to the uniqueness of the
equipment/vehicle or similar special circumstances, it is not reasonable to comply with the diesel
engine requirement for a specific piece of equipment/vehicle. - Exemptions may also be granted during the course of the project when a noncompliant piece of
equipment/vehicle is required to respond to an emergency. In such cases, the Contractor shall notify
the Owner’s Representative and request approval for an exemption via The Yard. Such exemptions
shall be valid only for the duration of the emergency, repair timeframe, or similar temporary timeframe
as applicable.
- Approved exemptions shall be valid for the calendar year, at which time contractors may request to extend exemptions. Requests shall be reviewed by the CAC Program and will either be retired or renewed for another calendar year.
- Through this process, the Contractor shall certify that all applicable equipment and vehicles used on the project are in compliance with the Clean Air Construction requirements or have a valid exemption.
