Tla’amin Nation is looking for contractors to help put together a drainage plan for the village of Ti’shosum.
In a report, the nation says Ti’shosum is their main occupied village within their Treaty Settlement Lands, containing 280 housing units and 25 community buildings.
The village has been dealing with inadequate drainage in many areas, and as a result, the nation aims to build a Master Drainage Plan to not only rehabilitate and improve their drainage system, but to also mitigate flood risks and improve resilience for the community.
The nation says they’re looking for proposals from contractors to help put the plan together, which will have several objectives.
“The objectives are assessing existing stormwater infrastructure & drainage patterns, reviewing all relevant background information, including the Master Drainage Plan feasibility report, providing stormwater modeling & mapping, and finalizing a new Drainage Plan report,” said Tla’amin Nation.
“The report should present findings and recommendations for drainage improvements, including both short-term and long-term solutions. The Master Drainage Plan should display a prioritized implementation strategy inclusive of design & cost estimates.”
The nation says the new report needs to prioritize recommendations based on urgency and effectiveness, and that any possible solutions are environmentally sustainable.
They add the proposals must include how you would approach this project, an estimated timeline, and the budget costs for the objectives.
The chosen contractor or contractors will be contacted on June 27 to set up a schedule.
You have until June 19 at 4:30 p.m. to email your proposal to [email protected].
