Request for Information (RFI)
TITLE: MV Sun Sea - Vessel Disposal or Remediation
Purpose and Nature of the Request for Information (RFI)
Public Works and Government Services Canada (PWGSC) is requesting Industry feedback regarding potential options for the Motor Vessel (MV) Sun Sea, which has been in Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) custody since 2010.
The intent of this RFI is to seek feedback from industry on how best to manage the dismantling and/or disposal of the vessel and ensure that best practices are incorporated into the process. Canada is interested in input on alternative disposal methods that are environmentally sound and lower costs to Canadian taxpayers. Furthermore, Canada would like to determine regional capacity to dispose of this vessel. It should be noted by industry that due to its condition, towing of the vessel is restricted to the waters of Southern British Columbia.
There is a scheduled viewing of the vessel on June 8, 2018 at 10:00AM Pacific Daylight Time (PDT) at 100 Annacis Park Way, Delta, BC. Requests to attend the viewing must be sent to the Contracting Authority by June 6, 2018 at 10:00AM PDT by email to Torrey.Buchan2@pwgsc-tpsgc.gc.ca. All participants at the vessel viewing must wear personal protective equipment (PPE) when onboard the vessel, including a hard hat and steel-toed boots with non-slip soles. Participants will be advised of any other PPE requirements prior to the viewing, and are required to provide their own PPE for the viewing.
I. With respect to the vessel dismantling and disposal SOW provided, Canada is seeking to allow industry the opportunity to assess and comment on the adequacy and clarity of the vessel dismantling & disposal SOW, and to provide input on the following: a) The level of detail required in the document; b) Best practices and procedures to incorporate into the SOW; c) Industry capacity to accomplish the SOW as presented; d) The necessary schedule and timelines required to complete the dismantling and disposal of a vessel of this size and characteristics; e) The approximate budget/cost to dismantle and dispose of the vessel; f) Potential evaluation criteria that would support the SOW and add value to the Request for Proposal process.
II. Canada is seeking input from industry on alternative methods of disposal of the vessel that may be more environmentally sound and/or reduce the costs of disposal. For proposed alternative methods, Canada is seeking information as to: a) Best practices and procedures; b) The necessary schedule and timelines required to complete the proposed alternative method; c) The approximate budget/cost of the proposed alternative method; d) Potential evaluation criteria that would support the alternative method.
