AI Summary
Pinellas County seeks proposals for removing approximately 3,300 tires from five artificial reef areas off its coast. The project includes tire and marine debris removal and transport to a designated staging area in Clearwater, FL.
The Pinellas County Solid Waste department is issuing this Request for Proposal (RFP) to contract services to remove approximately 3,300 tires from five (5) artificial reef areas off the coast of Pinellas County. Tire removal areas include the Clearwater Artificial Reef area measuring approximately 320 acres in total, The Rube Allyn Reef Area measuring approximately 220 acres in total, the St. Pete Beach Artificial Reef area measuring approximately 60 acres in total, the Treasure Island Artificial Reef area measuring approximately 85 acres in total, and the Madeira Beach Artificial Reef area measuring approximately 85 acres in total. Recovered tires and other marine debris are to be transported and unloaded into County provided containers at the Artificial Reef Program Staging area located within the Pinellas County Sand Key Park 1060 Gulf Blvd. Clearwater, FL.
It is estimated that thousands of tires were strategically placed into the surrounding gulf waters throughout the 1960s, 70s, and 80s as part of a larger effort to create artificial reefs, improve fish habitat, and manage the supply of used tires.
In the decades since their placement, many tires have come untethered due to saltwater corrosion of the stainless-steel strapping that held them together followed by tropical storms, and hurricanes. Now mobile, the tires have the potential to cause considerable damage to nearby hardbottom, seagrass, and other natural habitats in the area. In addition, the placement of the tires in prior decades has since been determined to be unsuitable for marine life, in most cases due to the instability.
A successful proposal would clearly address the following:
Respondent must prepare and include an Executive Summary that summarizes the key points from the Respondents Qualifications and Experience, and Project Approach. The Executive Summary shall be written on the Respondents letterhead that includes the Respondents business name and address.
Respondent must present their qualifications and experience that include the following topics.
The Respondent must provide a project approach and plan to remove all identified Tires and other Marine Debris from the surveyed areas. The Project Approach shall include the following criteria:
Tire Removal Plan:
Respondents must provide a price for each item listed in the Pricing Proposal. Failure to provide a price for any item will result in the response being deemed non-responsive and will be rejected. The prices provided by the Respondent must be all inclusive including but not limited to all personnel, materials, labor, equipment, profit and overhead necessary to complete the Scope of Work.
Pre-populated by the Purchasing, the purpose of this criterion is to affect an equitable distribution of contracts. This criterion is evaluated based on CCNA Continuing contract value encumbered (Purchase Orders issued) to a firm during the (2) previous completed fiscal years through current to date. The points are worth 5 percent of the overall points available and are distributed as follows:
$0 - $200,000 – 5% of points available
$200,001 - $400,000 – 4% of points available
$400,001 – $600,000 – 3% of points available
$600,001- $800,000 – 2% of points available
$800,001 - $1,000,000 – 1% of points available
Over $1,000,000 – 0% of points available
Based on a typical 1,000-point evaluation scoring process, a firm deemed to be in the $0-$200,000 category threshold would be allotted 50 points etc.
Provides points pre-populated by the Purchasing Department for minority business status as designated by the Florida State Office of Supplier Diversity, Department of Management Services. If the firm, or its sub-contractors, is designated as a minority business by the Florida State Office of Supplier Diversity, Department of Management Services, 2.5% of the total evaluation points are awarded. If the firm does not have minority business status as per the Florida State Office of Supplier Diversity, Department of Management Services, 0% of the points available are awarded.25
Respondents are expected to organize their submittals in such a manner as to facilitate the evaluation process. Submittals should be keyed or indexed to correspond with this solicitation. Responses should be correlated to the specific submittal, criterion, section or paragraph number of the solicitation being addressed.
Evaluators will make a reasonable effort to locate information in the responses; however failure to follow this suggested format may make location of critical submittal information difficult, possibly resulting in a loss of appropriate credit.
Additional documentation may be requested by the County to ensure contract compliance.

Q (Period of Performance): What is the expected period of performance for this contract? Is there a start date and / or deadline the work needs to be finished?
A: Start date would be the start date of the resulting agreement. The end date is anticipated to be July 31, 2027.
Q (Contractor Certification): Per 3.13 Contractor License Requirement, what licenses will be specifically required to bid on this work?
A: Contractor must be registered to do business in the State of Florida. Other licensing requirements would be any USCG license or certification required to operate the associated equipment.
Q (Diving Operations): Given the scope of work summarized for this project. It appears that it would fall under commercial diving operations as defined by OSHA 1910 Subpart T. Will the contractor have to adhere to such regulations thru out the evolution of the project ? Thank you
A: The Contractor shall adhere to OSHA 1910 Subpart T for all diving operations.
Q (Certified Woman Owned): Is there any advantage for this RFP being State of Florida Certified Woman owned minority company ? Thank you
A: This is not a CCNA project, there are no scoring advantages for using or being a SBE, WBE or MBE.
Q (Depth): What is the maximum depth the tires are located at?
A: The maximum depth of water for tire recovery occurs at the Rube Allyn reef location. The depth of water at that location can reach depths of up to 50'.
Q (Timeline and Award): What is the timeline to remove the totality of the tires? Will more than one company be awarded?
A: It is the County's intent to award to only one Contractor. The timeline to complete the tire removal activities is from the date of award through July 31, 2027.
Q (Side Scan): Are the side scan results available in a more clean image or in Auto CAD format? Is water depth from side scan results available? Not just maximum of 50 ft stated, but what average water depth for each reef?
A: Yes, the results of the side scan are available as dwg. files as well as a detailed results report and an excel list of each tire target located for each reef. Water depth and X and Y coordinates from the side scan results is available for each tire target located by sidescan (this information will be provided to the awardee). Average depth of water for each reef location is as follows: Rube Allyn Reef 45', Clearwater Reef 25', Treasure Island Reef 30', Madeira Beach Reef 30', St. Pete Beach Reef 35'.
Q (Survey Pictures): Are there any pictures of the reefs or tires on bottom?
A: There are a few pictures of the tires lying on the bottom. Most tires are sheered in half lengthwise, but some will be whole tires. All tires are less than 36" in diameter.
Q (Type of tires, dimensions): What type of tires are there at the bottom of the reefs? Dimensions? Are there car tires, truck tires, bigger? Thanks.
A: The tires are expected to be car and light truck tires less than 36" in diameter. Most tires are sheered in half lengthwise but some are whole.
Q (Depths): Can you please share the maximum depth at each reef?
A: Max depth at each reef is expected to be as follows: Rube Allyn Reef - 50' depth profile, Clearwater Reef - 30' depth profile, Treasure Island Reef - 35' depth profile, Madeira Beach Reef - 35' depth profile, St. Pete Beach Reef 35' depth profile.
Q (Tire per reef Breakdown): Is there a breakdown of how many tires are at each reef?
A: Clearwater Reef - Approximately 2,800 tires, Rube Allyn Reef - approx. 160 tires, Madeira Beach Reef - approx. 110 tires, St. Pete Beach Reef - approx. 60 tires, Treasure Island Reef - approx. 80 tires
Q (No subject): 1.) If a tropical storm or hurricane occurs before the project is completed and affects one or more of the sites by adding extra debris, or burying/redistributing tires, will this be considered an add-on to the job scope?
A: No, the intent is to clean each reef area of all visible reef tires and other marine debris once. The project scope will not be expanded to redo areas that have already been cleaned and certified as complete by the County. Nor will the areas be expanded beyond the defined boundaries of the reef areas. As cleaning progresses the County will certify each grid area as complete, once a grid area is certified complete, it will not be revisited for additional tire removal. The goal of this project is to make one thorough pass over each grid to remove reef tires and other Marine Debris.
Q (No subject): If a derelict vessel is found at any of the sites will this also be an add-on to the job scope?
A: No, derelict vessel removal is not part of this scope of work. Should a derelict vessel be located during the performance of this work the Contractor should notify the County representative so that it can be reported to the proper authorities.
Q (Quantity): How many tires at each specific reef? Have any targets been identified with GPS coordinates and will those be supplied to the contractor?
A: Yes the side scan sonar survey specifically identified the quantity of tires as reported in question 15. Each tire targe has gps coordinates to its specific location. This information will be provided to the awardee.
Q (No subject): How are the tires tethered together and anchored to the bottom?
A: The tires are not tethered together or anchored to the bottom they are free range tires. The tires were originally placed in bundles of 15-20 banded together with stainless steel strapping. That strapping failed many years ago and the tires are now lying on the bottom untethered and unanchored.
Q (Location): Are the tires spread out over the entire reef or are there specific areas that have been identified that contain "clusters" of tires?
A: The tires are widely spread over the entire project areas. There are areas that have a dense distribution of tires. The areas of dense distribution mainly occur at the Clearwater Reef location.
Q (No subject): Will the contractor be required to collect other misc. debris not associated with or "attached" to tires? If so, what are the parameters of other debris?
A: The Contractor shall also remove other Marine Debris that includes derelict fishing gear, ropes, anchors and general trash that may be collocated with reef tires.
Q (Size): How many and how large are each of the grid sections for each of the reefs?
A: Size and configuration of the grids is up to the Contractor but must be defined before work can proceed.
Q (No subject): If the contractor has been asked to revisit a grid section following a county inspection and the tire(s) / debris still cannot be located or has been misidentified, how will this be handled? How many times will the contractor be expected to revisit the same grid section?
A: The County will provide specific detailed information on what to collect should a grid need to be revisited. That information will include a description of the material (reef tire or marine debris), photo documentation of the material, and specific gps coordinates to the material. It is expected that the Contractor would only need to revisit a grid that failed certification once and only to remove specifically identified material.
Q (Delays): Will an extension be issued for acts of nature such as a hurricane or red tide that would prohibit or significantly delay operations?
A: The contract will include an optional term extension of one year to extend the timeline for performing the scope of work should weather and other environmental issues arise that delay the performance of the work. This would occur concurrent to extending the federal grant timeline that is funding the project.
