LANDFILL GAS CONVERSION

Policy Council · 2026-07-13 · resolution

Resolution rejecting all proposals received in response to Request for Proposals No. EVN0019329, Development of Landfill Gas Conversion Project, for the Department of Solid Waste Management. The project was to design, build, finance, operate and maintain a Renewable Natural Gas (RNG) system to clean and utilize landfill gas at the South Dade Landfill and North Dade Landfill sites. All proposals were deemed non-responsive by the County Attorney's Office. The rejection allows the County to update the solicitation and resolicit under full and open competition. The new solicitation will likely be issued for the South Dade Landfill site only, as proposals indicated the North Dade Landfill is not a viable site. The cost to the developer to design and build each facility was estimated to be over $30,000,000. The RFP was issued on July 8, 2025. The closing date for proposals was October 15, 2025, and five proposals were received. Issues were submitted to the County Attorney's Office on November 17, 2025, and on December 29, 2025, all proposals were deemed non-responsive. The resolution was introduced on March 23, 2026, and was amended at the Policy Council meeting on July 13, 2026, with the amended version in Legislative File No. 261339. The final action is not stated. The vendors not recommended for award were Apex One Home Inspections Corp., Mobius Fuels, LLC, Nopetro Energy, Sagepoint Energy Landfill Holdco, and Waga Energy, Inc., all deemed non-responsive by the County Attorney's Office. The staff recommendation is to approve the rejection. The resolution was pending BCC assignment. The agenda date and final action are not stated.
