SCOPE OF WORK:

The contaminated sediment targeted for remediation in this projec

ur in the vicinity of Piers 14, 15 and 16. The project will be co
pleted in three distinct stages:

Stage I - Construction of a marine double wall - the Engineered C
nfinement Facility (ECF) enclosure. This includes dredging of con
aminated sediments from between the walls and backfilling with cl
an rock fill.

Stage II - Dredging of contaminated sediments and depositing them
within the ECF up to water level.  Other remediation areas will b
 capped using both thin layer capping and isolation capping techn
ques.

Stage III - ECF sediment dewatering, capping above water level an
 consolidating of contaminated sediments within the ECF structure
with engineered materials (such as stone, sand, geotextiles, geom
mbranes, pipes, asphalt etc.).

Under this RFP, PWGSC, on behalf of Environment Canada, intends t
 procure Civil Engineering services for Construction Supervision
