Resupply of Miscellaneous Cargo and Diesel Fuel to Grosse-Île and the Irish Memorial National Historic Site– Parks Canada

The Gross- Île and Irish Memorial National Historic Site of Canada (NHSC) is located in the St. Lawrence River estuary facing the municipality of Montmagny. In order to maintain its existing infrastructure in good condition, every year, Parks Canada needs to procure various kinds of construction equipment and other cargo. Also, various systems on the Island depend on the production of electricity. To ensure its production, the Island must be resupplied with fuel to run the generators. Grosse-Île is accessible by sea and air, but large-scale provisioning is only possible by water. The size of the airfield landing strip restricts the size of planes that can use it.

The Contractor must be able to provide a ship or set of ships along with adequate equipment to load, transport, transship and offload various equipment, machinery, vehicles, materials, gasoline in barrels and bulk diesel fuel.
