The Work in this Non-Bonded Tender No.: RF-97-146 is generally described below:
The Work in this Tender is part of the Province’s flood fighting efforts and mainly consists of the
construction and removal of clay closures at the openings of the permanent flood protection dikes
surrounding St. Jean Baptiste and Letellier, MB should they be required.
Manitoba will make every effort to maximize the time period during which important commerce routes
on highways remain open, while not compromising the safe and effective closure of such ring dikes.
The Contractor shall provide specified equipment able to complete the following work activities as
required, as directed by Manitoba, including but not limited to:
• Prepare, excavate, load, haul and place borrow material
• Dike repair, maintenance and emergent work
• Removal of placed borrow material and site clean up, repair and remediation
• Traffic Management
Due to the nature of flood events, the exact scale, timing and extent of the work is largely
unknown. There is no guarantee of quantities. Should dike closures not be required, equipment will
not be mobilized and no payment will be made.
The Work is fully detailed in the Reference Documents on the following page of this Tender.
