In its capacity as the Waste Disposal Authority for Devon, the Authority is responsible for making provisions for the disposal of the waste, including the organic waste, that the District Councils of Devon collect or waste that the members of the public deposit at the Authority?s network of 19 household recycling centres.

The organic waste encompasses the following four waste streams, the disposal of which is being procured through four separate and independent tendering exercises:

- The composing of the garden waste;
- The processing of food waste;
- The composting of South Hams? mixed food /garden and cardboard waste;
- The treatment of organic sweepings.

This tendering opportunity aims to secure the successor Service provision for the treatment of organic sweepings waste that is collected as part of District Councils? road or footpath sweeping operations in Devon.

The Contract for the Service provision will be for an initial period of 5 years with option to extend, by mutual agreement, for periods totalling a maximum further 4 years.
