Procurement strategy for Auckland's household food waste processing
File No.: CP2017/20552
Purpose
1. To provide an update on the procurement of Auckland’s household food waste processing services.
Executive summary
2. In 2012, Auckland Council adopted a Waste Management and Minimisation Plan which sets out a strategy to deliver a number of waste minimisation targets. The strategy includes the introduction of a food waste service to reduce the amount of household waste being sent to landfill.
3. At its 16 May 2017 meeting, the Environment and Community Committee endorsed the first stage of a food waste service to start in the legacy Papakura urban areas, as a part of the three bin collection service. From 2020, the remaining urban parts of Auckland will also receive a food waste service.
4. The cost to provide the food waste service to the urban parts of Auckland was approved in the Long-term Plan 2015-2025, and will cost residents approximately $50 per household per annum through a targeted rates charge. The value of a targeted rate for a food waste service will be subject to the Long-term Plan 2018-2028 public consultation process.
5. An update on the procurement of the food waste processing service will be presented in the confidential section of the 11 October 2017 Strategic Procurement Committee meeting.
That the Strategic Procurement Committee: a) note the information contained in this report, on procurement of food waste processing services, enables transparency on the topic due for discussion in the public excluded part of the meeting. |
Comments
Context
6. In 2012, Auckland Council adopted its Waste Management and Minimisation Plan which has three key targets:
· an aspirational goal of zero waste to landfill by 2040, turning waste into resources
· reducing per capita household rubbish by 30 per cent by 2018 (revised 2020)
· reducing total waste per capita to landfill by 30 per cent by 2027.
7. A key mechanism to achieve these targets is the introduction of a food waste collection service.
8. Food waste constitutes around 45 per cent of what Auckland households dispose of as refuse at the kerbside. The service is expected to divert approximately 50,000 tonnes of household food waste from kerbside refuse per annum. Over time, the volume of diverted refuse is expected to increase to 75,000 tonnes per annum (3-4.5 per cent of current total refuse to landfill).
9. The service will enable households to reduce the volume of refuse they put out for collection and thereby reduce the amount they would pay for a refuse service under a user pays refuse collection system.
10. Provision of a food waste service will also contribute positively to reducing the region’s carbon footprint and support the Auckland Council’s aim of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 40 per cent by 2040.
11. The food waste service will deliver the Waste Management and Minimisation Plan target of reducing household refuse per person from 160 kg to 110 kg per annum. Once fully rolled out, the service will reduce the average weight of a household refuse bin by an initial 21 per cent, rising to 31 per cent, in line with the household waste reduction target under the Waste Management and Minimisation Plan.
12. Following a comprehensive waste options review in the 2016/2017 financial year, the introduction of a food waste service to urban areas of Auckland was endorsed by the Environment and Community Committee on 16 May 2017 (resolution ENV/2017/74).
13. The committee also endorsed the first stage of the service to start in the legacy Papakura District Council by April 2018, as part of the three bin service roll out. The three bin service consists of collection services for refuse, recycling and food waste.
14. The cost to provide the three bin service for all urban areas of Auckland was approved in the Long-term Plan 2015-2025, and the food waste service component of this will cost residents approximately $50 per household per annum through a targeted rates charge.
15. An update on the procurement strategy for the food waste processing service will be presented in the confidential section of the 11 October 2017 Strategic Procurement Committee meeting.
Consideration
Local board views and implications
16. The Papakura Local Board is generally supportive of the food waste collection project, noting that they would be the first area to receive the full waste collection service as outlined in the waste plan.
17. The board provided feedback on the importance of communicating to residents why their rates would now show waste as a separate charge, and that waste services in general were not a new charge. The board was also in acceptance that the food waste service would be an additional charge for residents, similar to other waste services such as recycling and inorganics.
18. Updates on the food waste collection were provided to the Franklin Local Board. No specific feedback on the rollout was received. However, the board has been supportive of food waste collection in the past suggesting Pukekohe be a trial collection area, noting that the town is in close proximity to the Tuakau food waste processing facility.
19. Local boards support their communities to reduce their waste through funding resource recovery and community waste minimisation initiatives. Supporting households to reduce their food waste will help achieve objectives in draft local board plans to reduce household waste.
Māori impact statement
20. Two hui were held during the consultation period for the Waste Management and Minimisation Plan in 2012, as well as individual visits to marae. Written and oral submissions by mana whenua indicated general support for the direction of the Waste Management and Minimisation Plan. Opportunities for economic development to recover more resources and minimise waste were welcomed, while noting the need to ensure that communities were supported through any transition to a disposer pays service, including the provision of a rates funded food waste services
21. At the 6 April 2017 Infrastructure and Environmental Services mana whenua hui, mana whenua representatives supported the provision of the food waste collection service across urban Auckland. A representative from Ngāti Manuhiri indicated an interest in being involved in the development of the Waste Management and Minimisation Plan review.
22. Since the adoption of the Waste Management and Minimisation Plan in 2012, mana whenua have also been involved in waste minimisation initiatives such as the Para Kore ki Tāmaki project, as well as the planning of a community recycling centre in central Auckland. The project team for community recycling centre includes a mana whenua working group, on which there is representation from Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei, Ngāi Tai ki Tāmaki, Te Ākitai Waiohua and Te Ahiwaru Waiohua.
Implementation
23. A waste options review undertaken in 2016 and 2017 SLR consulting reconfirmed that the service can be delivered within the budget approved in the Long-term Plan 2015-2025.
24. A further update on food waste processing will be provided to the committee in December 2017.

Comments
7. In 2012, Auckland Council adopted its Waste Management and Minimisation Plan. The plan set various targets including:
· an aspirational goal of zero waste to landfill by 2040, turning waste into resources
· reducing household rubbish by 30 per cent per capita by 2018.
8. Key mechanisms to achieve the targets stipulated in the plan are the introduction of:
· a standardised refuse bin service throughout Auckland
· a ‘pay as you throw’ charging regime which will reward waste minimisation behaviours
· a food waste collection service to divert from landfill up to 40 per cent of the organic material in household refuse.
9. To enable delivery of actions outlined in the Waste Management and Minimisation Plan 2012, the Tenders and Procurement Subcommittee approved the Full Procurement Plan for Solid Waste – Waste Management and Minimisation Plan Implementation in September 2013 (resolution TP/2013/1).
11. The key categories for waste services are collection of refuse, recyclables and inorganic materials, the processing of recyclables, and the disposal of waste to landfills.
12. The following sections provide general contract information on key waste service categories:
Processing of recyclables
13. A recycling processing plant was constructed by Visy, at Onehunga as a Build, Own, Operate and Transfer contract which allows the processing plant to be transferred back to council ownership in 2024.
Recycling collections
14. The recycling contracts were tendered 2015 with new services commencing in 2016 and 2017 depending on the area.
15. All households in the Auckland region now have a comingled (all recyclables in the one bin) kerbside service. Residents also have a choice of bin size (120 litre, 240 litre and 360 litre) with 240 litre being the default.
16. Collection contracts for recyclables were tendered over seven areas and awarded to three contractors as set out in Table 1 below.

Refuse collections
18. All the refuse collection contracts are based on legacy council areas. All contracts for refuse collections have now been aligned to expire on 5 July 2020. This alignment allows the council to align future contracts to the new collection areas 1 to 7 (see Attachment A), and to investigate the possible bundling of services to include the proposed food waste collection, fortnightly refuse and recycling collections across Auckland, in order to achieve best value for money and customer service outcomes.
19. Currently the Waitākere, North Shore, Papakura and Franklin contract areas operate under a user-pays system with bag collections, while Auckland and Manukau collections are funded through targeted rates, with a bin service. User-pays refuse collections will be introduced to the Auckland central and Manukau areas in conjunction with the new refuse collection contracts in 2020.
20. It is also intended to standardise collections to a bin service in the region and offer a range of bin sizes to customers (80 litre, 120 litre and 240 litre). This will mean council will phase out refuse bag collection by 2020. Refuse bins are being introduced into the legacy Waitākere area from 2 October, North Shore in April 2018 and Papakura in May 2018.
21. Details of the refuse collection contracts are set out in Table 3 below:

Consideration
Local board views and implications
26. Local boards have been involved in consultation as part of the development of the first Waste Management and Minimisation Plan in 2012 and will also be consulted on the review of the Waste Management and Minimisation Plan.. Workshops with local boards are currently underway and formal reports requesting feedback on the draft Waste Management and Minimisation Plan will be sent to the local boards over October and November 2017.
27. Council is currently consulting with both the Waiheke and Great Barrier local boards over the design, procurement and implementation of existing and new services in their areas.
Māori impact statement
28. The collection, disposal and minimisation of waste to landfill is of interest to mana whenua in their role as kaitiaki of natural environments. As part of the overall implementation of the Waste Management and Minimisation Plan 2012, council is engaging with interested mana whenua and mātāwaka organisations on a number of projects related to waste minimisation and resource recovery such as the Para Kore ki Tāmaki project at marae.
Implementation
29. On approval of the updated strategic procurement plan, the Waste Solutions and Procurement departments will work together to implement the strategies outlined in the plan. All future contracts will be awarded under approved budgets, and will be approved in accordance with the council’s approved delegations.
