Inert Material Clause Samples
The 'Inert Material' clause defines what constitutes inert material within the context of a contract, typically referring to substances that do not undergo significant physical, chemical, or biological changes. In practice, this clause clarifies which materials—such as certain types of soil, rock, or construction debris—are considered inert and therefore may be subject to different handling, disposal, or reuse requirements compared to hazardous or reactive materials. Its core function is to ensure clarity and compliance with environmental regulations by distinguishing inert materials from other waste types, thereby reducing ambiguity and potential disputes over material classification.
Inert Material. Contractor is responsible to push inert pile at the New and Old Inert Recycling Facilities (Inert Recycling Facilities) into a pile and continually maintain good access for vehicles and trucks to allow dumping of inerts materials. The Inert Recycling Facilities dumping areas must be maintained to have good drainage and without major ruts or ponding or sharp objects in the dumping area. The Contractor shall direct all loads of source separated inert material including, but not limited to, concrete asphalt and brick to the Inert Recycling Facilities. Any load containing visible contamination greater than 10 percent of the load by volume, which cannot be easily separated and removed, shall be redirected from the Inert Recycling Facilities areas to the C&D and Green Waste Facility. The Contractor shall promptly notify the Gate Attendant of the decision to redirect any load and direct the customer per the Gate Attendant’s instructions. Contractor may coordinate with the County to direct inert loads from the gate to the location of future winter dumping pad construction or other areas as approved by the County. Contractor at his/her expense may transport and use the on-site inerts stockpile at the Inert Recycling Facilities for the Construction of the wet weather pads or access roads.
Inert Material. The Contractor shall direct all loads of source separated inert material including, but not limited to, concrete asphalt and brick to the Inert Recycling Facilities. Any load containing visible contamination greater than ten (10) percent of the load by volume, which cannot be easily separated and removed, shall be redirected from the Inert Recycling Facility area to the C & D and Green Waste Facility. The Contractor shall promptly notify the Gate Attendant of the decision to redirect any load and direct the customer per the Gate Attendant’s instructions. Any load containing ten (10) percent or less contamination shall be unloaded at the Inert Recycling Facilities. Exhibit D shows the historical inert tonnage diverted to the Inert Recycling Facilities or the wet weather dumping pads.
