Environmental investigation of the Îles des Esquimaux and Brador
Bay sites

This requirement is open only to qualified suppliers under
Supply Arrangement EE517-121480 - Quebec Region, for
environmental investigation of site services. 


Description of requirement: 

The Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) sites have been
used for many years for various activities related primarily to
the fishery and the Coast Guard navigational aids network. The
operation and maintenance of these facilities may have caused
environmental incidents over the years, including soil
contamination by petroleum hydrocarbons, metals or the
accumulation of miscellaneous debris. 

Under its Contaminated Site Remediation Program, DFO has
arranged to have Public Works and Government Services Canada
(PWGSC) manage the environmental investigations of a number of
its properties to assess and manage the environmental risks
associated with past activities. Therefore, consultant services
are required to carry out the environmental assessments (phases
I, II and III) at five sites in the Blanc-Sablon sector
(Rivière-Saint-Paul) on the Lower North Shore and in Minganie.

The five sites are:
1 - Île des Esquimaux (wharf R-4048-3);
2 - Île des Esquimaux, former front range (LE91900);
3 - Île des Esquimaux, former rear range (LE91910);
4 - Brador Bay, front range (LE92800); and
5 - Brador Bay, rear range (LE92810). 

Proposed contract period:

The proposed contract period is from the date of the contract
award to 31 December 2013. 

Selection method:

A bid must comply with the requirements of the bid solicitation
and meet all mandatory technical evaluation criteria to be
declared responsive. The responsive bid with the lowest
evaluated price will be recommended for award of a contract.


Ongoing opportunity for qualification:

A Notice will be posted once a year on the Government Electronic
Tendering Service (GETS) to allow new suppliers to become
qualified. Existing qualified suppliers who have been issued a
supply arrangement will not be required to submit a new
arrangement.
