16-1713 - Pick-Up, Disassembly and Recycling of Used Street Light Luminaires

The City of Calgary (“The City”) is currently retrofitting all areas of the city with new LED street light luminaires. As a result of these programs, The City is responsible for recycling all used street light luminaires in a responsible manner. Each type of light contains metals such as aluminum, copper and steel that can be recovered and salvaged. They may also contain components which have hazardous materials such as Polychlorinated Biphenyl (PCB) oil capacitors and mercury that need to be disposed through responsible means.
 
The Preferred Proponent will be required to:

• Pick-up used street light luminaires from The City;
• Dis-assemble street light luminaires; and
• Recycle all materials using appropriate recyclers.
