BACKGROUND:

Public Works and Government Services Canada (PWGSC) has been tasked with the remediation program of three areas of concern (AEC) located west and north of Resolute Bay Airport, Nunavut that include an inactive solid waste landfill (AEC 1),  a historic landfill (AEC -2) and a vehicle/metal storage area (AEC-3). Hazardous waste and non hazardous waste has been identified at these locations, along with exposed waste, presenting environmental and safety hazards from historical landfilling practices. For the main remediation activities, PSC has been tasked to retain services of a contractor to remove and segregate the materials (Hazardous and non hazardous), package and ship hazardous waste for off-site disposal, consolidate/intergrate non-hazardous materials into AEC 1 landfill slope, and rehabilitate the AEC-1 landfill through grading to promote stability and surface water drainage. The contractor will also be required to supply and develop borrow material in order to complete the rehabilitation work.
Optional remediation work packages include: 

Optional Package A - rehabilitation of the AEC-2 landfill (grading the slope faces/top of the landfills to achieve desired slope angles
Optional Package B  constructing AEC-2 drainage swales); and 
Optional Package C - excavation and off-site disposal of contaminated soils from AEC-3, including backfill and grading, placement of excavated soils (clean and metal impacted).
