Solicitation No. EQ754-170541/A, Project No. R067842.004, Surveying Transport Canada Lands South of Queen Elizabeth Way to Port Robinson, Niagara Region, ON.

SCOPE OF WORK:

Public Works and Government Services Canada (PWGSC) intends to retain a firm of Surveyors to survey Transport Canada (TC) lands south of Queen Elizabeth Way to Port Robinson in Niagara Region, Ontario.

The required work involves obtaining a series of boundary surveys for parcels that are under the custodianship of TC in the Niagara area.  The Department of Transport Canada owns lands which are managed by the St. Lawrence Seaway Management Corporation (SLSMC).  This project includes cadastral surveying work required in order to establish the limits of certain TC lands in the Niagara area.  These lands include approximately 405 hectares of land area.  The lands are located immediately east and west of the working Welland Canal running from the Queen Elizabeth Way to the Welland River in Port Robinson.
This project requires professional surveying services to provide TC with an up-to-date report on extent and quality of ownership of certain St. Lawrence Seaway lands located in the City of St. Catharines, Town of Niagara-on-the-Lake, City of Niagara Falls and City of Thorold. The report is to include the results of a search of the local Registry Office records, field surveys and the preparation of Reference Plans of Survey.
