The City’s tender calls for sewer-line cleaning, camera inspections, condition coding and reports identifying defects, operational concerns and recommended maintenance, repair, rehabilitation, replacement or further investigation. The tender identifies two work areas, including pipe sections connected to the wastewater treatment plant and core-area segments. Source↗

The procurement would give the City updated evidence on the condition of selected sewer infrastructure and could inform future maintenance and capital planning. The contractor must document issues such as cracks, fractures, corrosion, infiltration, obstructions and other deficiencies, but the tender does not establish that any particular defect has been found.

Questions are due Sept. 15 at 5 p.m. EST. The City lists Sept. 22 at 3 p.m. EST as the bid deadline and a public opening at 3:30 p.m. that day. Its indicative schedule lists an Oct. 6 contract-award date and Sept. 30, 2027 project completion, while stating that work cannot start until a City commencement order is issued. Source↗

The bid form prices cleaning and CCTV inspection by actual linear metres, meaning the tender’s 4,117-metre estimate is not guaranteed and may change with site conditions, access, operational needs or City direction. The contractor would provide inspection video, electronic data, a condition-assessment report, deficiency summary, recommendations and records of inaccessible sections. Source↗
