Provision of Management and Day to Day Operational Services of Landfill Gas and Electricity Generation Infrastructure at Kinsale Rd Landfill Site
The Kinsale Road Landfill ceased acceptance of waste in 2009.
It is estimated that at least 3 000 000 tonnes of waste has been deposited over its 40 year lifetime. The site (approx 70 ha.) is still the subject of an Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) landfill licence. The licenced area includes the existing Park and Ride Area which is located west of the main landfill and the South City Link Road.
A public Civic Amenity Site will continue to operate on the site in the future.
The licence conditions require the Council to abstract, collect and treat landfill gas generated on site from the decomposing waste.
The conditions are listed in EPA Waste Licence No. W0012-03 dated 3.5.2011 (attached).
Cork City Council is now seeking tenders from suitably qualified and experienced companies who will under contract:
(a) Operate and maintain the entire gas infrastructure to Waste Licence requirements.
(b) Manage the landfill gas fuelled electricity generation equipment to the satisfaction of Cork City Council.
The Council may also require the Successful Contractor to provide a suitably qualified landfill technician to cover for Council staff.
A site inspection by tenderers is mandatory and will be arranged by the Council.
The contract will be for 4 years and may be extended by a further year at the discretion of Cork City Council.
