Arizona waste-hauling abruptly withdrew contract to beat out Recology's San Francisco bid

An Arizona waste hauling company on the verge of beating scandal-tainted Recology out of a contract worth up to $119 million for collecting and disposing of waste from San Francisco city facilities has abruptly withdrawn from consideration following questions about its bid, according to city officials.

“With the city’s advisement that no changes to the rates can be accepted, yes, we confirm that we are withdrawing our proposal,” stated the email, signed by Kathryn Tekulve, general manager of Republic Services for the San Francisco Peninsula and San Mateo County. A Republic representative declined to comment.
