AND
CENTENNIAL RECYCLING LLC
THIS AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is effective as of ______________ by and between Centennial Recycling, LLC
a Colorado limited liability company (hereinafter “Contractor”) and Eagle County, Colorado, a body corporate and
politic (hereinafter “County”).
RECITALS

baled recycled material from the Eagle County Materials Recovery Facility (MRF) located at 605 Ute Creek Road,
Wolcott, Colorado (the "Property") to the commodity mill or end-user; and
WHEREAS, County selected Contractor's proposal as the most advantageous regarding price, quality of service,
qualifications and capabilities to provide the required services; and
WHEREAS, Contractor is authorized to do business in the State of Colorado and has the time, skill, expertise, and
experience necessary to provide the Services as defined below in paragraph 1 hereof; and
WHEREAS, this Agreement shall govern the relationship between Contractor and County in connection with the
Services.
AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the following promises Contractor and County agree as
follows:
1. Services or Work. Contractor agrees to diligently provide all services, labor, personnel and materials
necessary to perform and complete the services or work described in this Agreement and in Contractor's proposal,
attached here to as Exhibit A (“Services” or “Work”) and incorporated herein by reference. The Services shall be
performed in accordance with the provisions and conditions of this Agreement.
a. Contractor agrees to furnish the Services in a timely and expeditious manner consistent with the

d. The following are recycled commodities (“Commodities”) to be brokered and transported by
Contractor:
i. #1, #2, #3-#7 plastic containers
ii. Tin/Steel Containers
iii. Old Corrugated Cardboard (OCC)
iv. Used Beverage Cans/Aluminum Cans (UBC)
iv. Old News Print/Paper (ONP)
e. Eagle County will provide the necessary equipment and staff to load Commodities on outbound
trucks or trailers to full visible capacity and will attempt to achieve 44,000 pounds minimum shipping weight. The
parties acknowledge that it may not be possible to achieve 44,000 pounds minimum shipping weight on every truck
or trailer due to the weight of the truck or trailer. The County will therefore load trucks or trailers to full legal
capacity (80,000 pounds), taking into account the weight of the truck or trailer and fuel weight. Trucks or trailers
shall be loaded or caused to be loaded in accordance with the most current shipping guide provided by the
Contractor. In the event County is unable to achieve 44,000 pounds minimum shipping weight on any truck or
trailer for any reason, including, but not limited to, total truck weight is over the legal limit and/or driver will not
accept 44,000 pounds onto the truck, the County will contact Contractor as soon as practicable and prior to truck
leaving the MRF, to give Contractor an opportunity to maximize the weight on the particular truck or trailer. The
trucks and trailers will be arranged for by Contractor and will arrive at the MRF during County’s normal operating
hours. County understands that many events can cause delay of trucks and will give as much notice as possible as to
when loads will be ready for transport. All commodities shall be weighed before leaving the MRF. Contractor will
configure the trucks and trailers according to the type of material being shipped as follows:
i. Cardboard – County will load cardboard onto a flatbed trailer (preferred) or into a van
trailer arranged for by Contractor; loads must be fully tarped by Contractor or its
subcontractor(s) prior to leaving the MRF.
ii. Tin/Steel – County will load tin/steel onto a flatbed semi-trailer arranged for by
Contractor; loads must be fully tarped by Contractor or its subcontractor(s) prior to
leaving the MRF.
iii. Plastic – County will load plastic into a van trailer arranged for by Contractor.
iv. Aluminum – County will load aluminum into a van trailer arranged for by Contractor.
v. Paper – County will load paper into a spot van trailer arranged for by Contractor.
Contractor will be required to swap out the van trailer when full. The MRF staff will
notify the Contractor when the spot trailer is expected to be full or if there is a request for
a truck for another Commodity.
f. During the term of the Agreement, Contractor shall be the exclusive provider of the Services with
the exception of glass recycling and miscellaneous metals which shall be provided by a vendor other than the
Contractor.
g. Contractor will ensure that its Commodities transporter has all required permits and licenses in
accordance with local, state, and federal regulations for the transportation of Commodities received from the MRF.
Contractor shall also ensure that any transporter utilized meets all insurance requirements as required by Eagle
County. Contractor will provide the County with proof of such insurance upon request in accordance with Section
7.b.ii below.

Eagle County Landfill General Services Final 5/14
h. Title to the Commodities provided by County is transferred to Contractor upon Contractor’s
receipt of collection of such Commodities unless otherwise provided in this Agreement or by applicable law.
Contractor will assume possession of the Commodities once the Commodities are loaded onto Contractor’s vehicles.
Contractor will manage all materials received from the County MRF in accordance with all applicable local, state,
and federal regulations for the transportation, storage and recycling of said Commodities.
2. County’s Representative. The Solid Waste & Recycling Department’s designee shall be Contractor’s
contact with respect to this Agreement and performance of the Services.
3. Term of the Agreement. This Agreement shall commence upon the date first written above, and subject to
the provisions of paragraph 11 hereof, shall continue in full force and effect through the 31st day of December, 2019.
4. Extension or Modification. This Agreement may be extended for up to three additional one year terms
upon written agreement of the parties. Any amendments or modifications shall be in writing signed by both parties.
No additional services or work performed by Contractor shall be the basis for additional compensation unless and
until Contractor has obtained written authorization and acknowledgement by County for such additional services in
accordance with County’s internal policies. Accordingly, no course of conduct or dealings between the parties, nor
verbal change orders, express or implied acceptance of alterations or additions to the Services, and no claim that
County has been unjustly enriched by any additional services, whether or not there is in fact any such unjust
enrichment, shall be the basis of any increase in the compensation payable hereunder. In the event that written
authorization and acknowledgment by County for such additional services is not timely executed and issued in strict
accordance with this Agreement, Contractor’s rights with respect to such additional services shall be deemed waived
and such failure shall result in non-payment for such additional services or work performed.
5. Compensation. County shall have no obligation to pay any amount to Contractor for the Services
hereunder but Contractor may retain the amounts set forth in Section 5.b. below. Contractor will notify the County
of any adjustments and shall provide sufficient documentation and proof of reasons for adjustments. No adjustments
to said amounts shall be made without sufficient documentation and proof from Contractor and any adjustment shall
require County’s prior written consent and approval. In the event of a dispute concerning any adjustment to the
amounts set forth in Section 5.b. below, Contractor shall pay to County the full amount due for the Services as if no
adjustment was being claimed by Contractor and the matter may be referred to a mediator in Eagle County Colorado
with each party to pay their own costs associated with participating in such mediation.
a. Compensation to County shall be determined through Contractor’s payment and monthly activity
reports, described in Section 5.c. below. Contractor’s activity reports shall reflect the sale of any Commodities
collected from the County. Compensation to County shall be calculated based on the following formula: market
price less 5.83%. Market pricing for fiber is defined as the average between low and high for the respective grade.
Southwest price per ton reported in the first issue of the PPI Pulp and Paper Week (Price Watch) during that month
less 5.83%. The final price paid to Eagle County will be rounded to the nearest cent. Example: June 2018’s OCC
pricing was $75.00-$80.00/ton; therefore Eagle County receives $72.98/ton FOB Wolcott. Due to global trade
issues, the plastic markets are currently very unstable and are constantly changing. Centennial will obtain pricing
from at least three reputable plastic processors both domestic and export and sell to the highest price whenever the
County has a load of plastic ready to ship. Eagle County will be paid the sell price less 5.83%. No market
publications exist for metals that accurately reflect the local market. The County’s best interest is served in using
domestic markets for aluminum and tin; therefore UBC market pricing will be based on posted pricing supplied by
Constellium, the end user of aluminum. UBC market pricing is released any time the market changes and not on a
set schedule. Tin market pricing will be based on pricing supplied by Conti Metals who represent several end users
of tin. Tin market pricing is provided at the beginning of every month based on shipping a flatbed trailer out of

Eagle County Landfill General Services Final 5/14
Wolcott, Colorado. Contractor shall keep the best interest of the County in mind, based on market pricing, when
selling Commodities pursuant to this Agreement.
b. Contractor shall pay County by the 25th day of each month for Commodities collected from the
County during the prior month. Simultaneously with payment, Contractor shall provide to County activity reports
reflecting sales of Commodities during the prior month with a breakdown of weights and Commodity pricing
calculations, including the market pricing for each Commodity. County may contact Contractor for a daily market
price. Contractor shall pay County for Commodities collected by Contractor based on the weight established at the
end user location purchasing the Commodities and using the formula described above in Section 5.b.
c. County acknowledges that the value of the Commodities may be negative at times, but in no event
shall County owe Contractor for any of the Services performed hereunder. Contractor agrees to maintain accurate
business records, books, and account information relating to Commodities sold by Contractor under this Agreement.
All such records, books, and information relating to Commodities sold by Contractor under this Agreement may be
audited or inspected by County at reasonable times and upon reasonable notice.
d. While the Parties agree that County shall have no obligation to pay Contractor for the Services
hereunder, the parties acknowledge that County shall have no obligations under this Agreement, nor shall any
payments be made to Contractor in respect of any period after December 31 of any year, without an appropriation
therefor by County in accordance with a budget adopted by the Board of County Commissioners in compliance with
Article 25, title 30 of the Colorado Revised Statutes, the Local Government Budget Law (C.R.S. 29-1-101 et. seq.)
and the TABOR Amendment (Colorado Constitution, Article X, Sec. 20).
6. Subcontractors. Contractor acknowledges that County has entered into this Agreement in reliance upon the
particular reputation and expertise of Contractor. Contractor shall not enter into any subcontractor agreements for
the performance of any of the Services or additional services without County’s prior written consent, which may be
withheld in County’s sole discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties acknowledge that Contractor will
hire third party carriers to haul Commodities from the County MRF. County shall have the right in its reasonable
discretion to approve all personnel assigned to the subject Project during the performance of this Agreement and no
personnel to whom County has an objection, in its reasonable discretion, shall be assigned to the Project. Contractor
shall require each subcontractor, as approved by County and to the extent of the Services to be performed by the
subcontractor, to be bound to Contractor by the terms of this Agreement, and to assume toward Contractor all the
obligations and responsibilities which Contractor, by this Agreement, assumes toward County. County shall have the
right (but not the obligation) to enforce the provisions of this Agreement against any subcontractor hired by
Contractor and Contractor shall cooperate in such process. The Contractor shall be responsible for the acts and
omissions of its agents, employees and subcontractors.
7. Insurance. Contractor agrees to provide and maintain at Contractor’s sole cost and expense, the following
insurance coverage with limits of liability not less than those stated below:
a. Types of Insurance.
i. Workers’ Compensation insurance as required by law.
ii. Contractor will require all of its subcontractors that haul recycling materials from the
Eagle County MRF to maintain auto coverage with limits of liability not less than $1,000,000 each accident
combined bodily injury and property damage liability insurance, including coverage for owned, hired, and non-

on any moneys paid pursuant to this Agreement.
8. Indemnification. The Contractor shall indemnify and hold harmless County, and any of its officers, agents
and employees against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities for which County may become subject to insofar as

any performance or nonperformance by Contractor its employees, agents or any of its subcontractors hereunder; and
Contractor shall reimburse County for reasonable attorney fees and costs, legal and other expenses incurred by

From 2010-2012 and 2015-2018 Centennial Recycling has provided brokerage services to
Eagle County for recyclable materials. Over this time Centennial Recycling successfully
shipped 14,642.94 tons of material, paid out on time $2,460,178.08 and developed a very
successful partnership.
Centennial Recycling is interested in continuing our long term recycling relationship with
Eagle County. As we have shown in the past, we have the resources, markets and
relationships in place to successfully market all materials produced at the Eagle County
Material Recovery Facility.
Company Profile
Centennial Recycling, LLC is a brokerage company whose personnel represent over 200
years of experience in the recycled commodity markets. Centennial Recycling specializes in
the marketing of recycled paper and post-consumer plastics and metals. We manage long
term purchasing and sales partnerships throughout 20 states across the country, selling
recyclable commodities mill direct into both domestic and export markets. Centennial
Recycling has been in business for over 16 years and has a reputation for integrity, long term
business relationships, prompt payment, and excellent customer service.
Centennial Recycling is made up of ten employees, each with their own expertise within the
business and industry. Our employees include four former mill buyers and MRF managers.
This experience allows us to assist our customers with challenges in MRF operations and
also provides market options unavailable to less experienced companies in the industry. Our
employees are cross trained and work together as a team so each person knows the specific
needs of each account. This means that Eagle County can call Centennial Recycling with
any questions or needs and always talk to a person on the phone that has knowledge of their
account and can respond to the issue. Payments from Centennial Recycling are made by
the 25th of the month following shipment (for example loads that ship in July will be paid no
later than the 25th of August). We have been reliable with this payment schedule for Eagle
County for 5 years and will continue in the future.

Transportation
Our experience shipping on the I-70 mountain corridor distinguishes us from our competition.
Shipping from many different mountain towns and remote locations throughout Colorado,
Centennial Recycling specializes in moving material from suppliers that would create
challenges logistically for other shippers.
To maximize income, Centennial Recycling will send full truckloads (44,000 pounds) of baled
material directly to the mills. Mill direct shipments allow for mill direct pricing without handling
fees associated with plants, labor and overhead. Since Centennial ships large volumes of
material daily, we have developed strong relationships with large trucking brokers and
trucking fleets throughout the United States. This ensures consistent movement of material
at competitive prices. The savings of these competitive prices will be passed on to Eagle
County. In addition to efficient transportation services, Centennial Recycling will provide a
spotted trailer for ONP storage.
Markets
With multiple markets for each commodity processed by Eagle County, Centennial Recycling
ensures consistent movement of materials at competitive market prices. Our past
experience with Eagle County provides knowledge of what is in their best interest; Centennial
Recycling will continue to search for new markets and processes to improve the recycling
program whenever possible.
Centennial Recycling always communicates effectively with Eagle County to keep
management informed about changes taking place in the recycling industry. In the spring of
2017 Centennial Recycling learned of upcoming changes in regulations and enforcement of
export material going to China. Upon receiving this news from partners in the Industry
Centennial started exploring domestic markets for all the material that would be affected by
these changes and educating Eagle County on the potential changes coming to the industry.
As a result, by the time the export ban occurred in January 2018 all material generated in
Eagle County was qualified and shipping to domestic markets. Another example of
Centennial Recycling working in the best interest of the county is UBC marketing. When
Eagle County is close to a full load of aluminum, Centennial Recycling sends frequent
updates with current pricing and information so Eagle County can decide the best time to
“lock in” the fluctuating price. This ensures the most competitive pricing on a volatile market
commodity.
Centennial Recycling is the exclusive provider for Newsprint to specific end markets in the
Rocky Mountain west. These relationships provide regional outlets for commodities that
many companies cannot offer. These markets benefit Eagle County by cutting down on
transportation costs, which in turn makes for more competitive pricing and consistent
movement. Maintaining several market options allows Centennial Recycling to provide
consistent movement to our many domestic or export outlets. If one of these markets were
to decline, Eagle County would be assured an alternative option for shipment through
Centennial Recycling. Centennial Recycling will continue our commitment to expand end
user opportunities and pursue industry knowledge that will benefit Eagle County.

Compensation
Compensation to the County will be based on the following formula: market price less 5.83%.
Market pricing for fiber is defined as the average between high and low for the respective
grade. Southwest price per ton reported in the first issue of the PPI Pulp and Paper Week
(Price Watch) during that month less 5.83%. The final price paid to Eagle County will be
rounded to the nearest cent. Example: June 2018’s OCC pricing is $75-$80/ton; therefore
Eagle County receives $72.98/ton FOB Wolcott. Due to global trade issues, the plastic
markets are currently very unstable and are constantly changing. Domestic markets are
being affected by decisions in Asia with new challenges arising daily. To stay competitive
during these market changes Centennial will obtain pricing from at least three reputable
plastic processors both domestic and export and sell to the highest price whenever the
County has a load of plastic ready to ship. Eagle County will be paid the sell price less
5.83%. No market publications exist for metals that accurately reflect the local market. The
County’s best interest is served in using domestic markets for aluminum and tin; therefore
UBC market pricing will be based on posted pricing supplied by Constellium, the end user of
aluminum. UBC market pricing is released any time the market changes and not on a set
schedule. Tin market pricing will be based on pricing supplied by Conti Metals who represent
several end users of tin. Tin market pricing is provided at the beginning of every month
based on shipping a flatbed trailer out of Wolcott, Colorado. Contractor shall keep the best
interest of the County in mind, based on market pricing, when selling Commodities pursuant
to this Agreement.
