Description

The Town seeks to engage a qualified contractor to perform inspection services on key sections of its water and wastewater mains (the “Pipelines”). Nine pipeline sections totalling approximately 20 kilometers of varying pipe material have been identified as candidates for inspection. The Town will collaborate with the successful Proponent to prioritize the inspection work based on available budget, technological capabilities, and the risks of each asset.

Due to its varied topography and built form, the Town operates a complex water and wastewater network. Significant elevation changes have resulted in twenty (20) pressure zones within the water distribution system and ten (10) collection basins within the wastewater system. The community was developed around the Bow River—an environmentally sensitive area—which increases environmental and regulatory risks associated with underground utilities in the riparian zone.

Much of the underground infrastructure is over 50 years old.  Although record information is generally good, some pipe materials and locations remain unknown.
