PROJECT OVERVIEW

The intent of this project is to provide project engineering and technical services to support the operations and maintenance program of Water Infrastructure and Operations Branch (WIOB) - Southern Operations (SO).

This contract seeks to have in place a consultant which can fill the roles required for assessment, design, site inspection and quality assurance & control for various projects completed via the operational maintenance program.

BACKGROUND

WIOB is responsible for the operation and maintenance of provincially owned water management infrastructure. This infrastructure provides a secure water supply for irrigation districts, industrial and commercial users, municipalities, and individuals.
The water management infrastructure operated and maintained by WIOB includes river diversion structures, dams, reservoirs, and canal systems for water storage and conveyance, as well as supply to downstream end users.

These infrastructure systems contain flow control components including earthen dams and embankments, gates, weirs, spillways, check and turnout structures, diversions, drainage structures as well as numerous associated mechanical and electrical components. This infrastructure is supported by seepage collection, active monitoring, and instrumentation networks integral to the system.

WIOB infrastructure was constructed as early as the 1920’s, with major capital additions in subsequent years. Some infrastructure components have had significant upgrades in recent years, and some have remained relatively unchanged for a long period of time.
