Description

This Request for Proposal (RFP) will cover the analyses for several contaminants of concern to support the activities of the program. ECCC will be responsible for the collection, preparation and shipping of the fish samples; while the Contractor will be responsible for the analysis of prepared fish samples. Samples will be shipped frozen from ECCC to the Contractor’s laboratory.
