87055-18-0063 - Independent Environmental Monitoring Program in the Athabasca Basin of Northern Saskatchewan

Description of Work:

On an as and when requested basis, the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission (CNSC) requires the Contractor to collect samples, have them analyzed by the Contractor’s or a 3rd party analytical laboratory, and draft a report on the findings in support of the Independent Environmental Monitoring Program’s (IEMP) objective of independently verifying that the public and the environment around the nuclear facilities are safe and protected. The IEMP results are independent of the facility’s Environmental Monitoring Program.

The IEMP objective is achieved by:

• Directly measuring contaminant concentrations in the surrounding environment that are associated with nuclear activities;
• Comparing contaminant concentrations with appropriate background values, environmental quality criteria, and other available benchmarks;
• Assessing risk to the public and the environment associated with releases and concentrations of nuclear and hazardous substances in the environment

This process is expected to result in the award of up to one contract for 5 years.

Security Requirement: None
