Federal remediation notice for former Isachsen weather station remains open until Sept. 30
Public Services and Procurement Canada, for Environment and Climate Change Canada, is seeking supplier interest for remediation at the former Isachsen High Arctic Weather Station on Ellef Ringnes Island. The notice was amended Aug. 13 and remains open until Sept. 30; it is not a contract award.
What happened
CanadaBuys lists a request for information, solicitation WS5528516800, for a site visit and intended procurement related to remediation of the former Isachsen High Arctic Weather Station in Nunavut’s Qikiqtaaluk region. PSPC is running the process on behalf of Environment and Climate Change Canada. The notice says it was last amended Aug. 13, 2026, remains open, and closes at 2 p.m. EDT on Sept. 30, 2026.

Interested suppliers must follow the CanadaBuys notice and SAP Business Network instructions before the Sept. 30 closing time. The federal government may use responses and the site-visit process to proceed with a later procurement; the posted record does not establish that construction work has been awarded or started.
