Background:

Water Survey of Canada (WSC) of Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) collects water quantity data. As the equipment that collects the data is dispersed across the north on remote rivers and lakes, access to a large majority of these locations requires the use of aircraft. Charters leaving Yellowknife, Northwest Territories access these remote locations in Northwest Territories and Nunavut.

Objective:

WSC requires a twin engine, fixed wing aircraft capable of transporting hydrometric technologists, herein referred to as ECCC passengers, and their equipment to remote, off strip, hydrometric sites, landing on lakes and rivers in the Northwest Territories (NT) and Nunavut (NU). The aircraft is expected to transport ECCC passengers and equipment from Yellowknife, NT to each site, stay on site with the ECCC passengers while they conduct their work of surveying, working from boats, collecting water.

Aircraft Requirements:

The Contractor’s base of operations must have a heated indoor washroom and staging area.
The Contractor must have access to a DeHavilland DHC-6 Twin Otter 300 or equivalent.

WSC has fuel cached at the locations indicated on the itinerary. The Contractor should have access to other cached fuel in the general travel area if required (i.e. Fort Reliance) and must have fueling gear with the machine.

Each site visit can be 1-3 hours and pilots should have personal gear to reflect the weather/seasonal conditions.
