Eiram Stormwater Management Pond Retrofit and Sediment Cleanout

The Municipality of Clarington is soliciting bids for the cleanout and retrofit of the Eiram Stormwater Management Pond in Bowmanville to restore its intended functionality and improve sediment control. The work requires comprehensive removal of accumulated sediment and overgrown vegetation to reinstate the pond’s original design elevations and operational capacity. Key retrofit elements include the installation of a forebay with a permanent pool deeper than 1.0 meter to enhance sediment capture and reduce remobilization, along with erosion protection measures such as rip rap at the forebay inlet. Additional rehabilitation efforts involve repairing the damaged headwall at the storm sewer inlet, replacing the stone jacket around the extended detention control device, restoring the gabion mattress and rip rap upstream and downstream of the control cell, and unblocking the quantity control outlet structure. Improvements to the access road will entail clearing organic debris like wood chips to ensure safe and efficient maintenance access. All work must adhere to the specifications outlined in the tender documents and associated drawings. The solicitation, identified as BT-CL2026-15, was posted on May 21, 2026, with a submission deadline of May 27, 2026. The procurement is managed by the Municipality of Clarington, and inquiries should be directed to Sandra McKee, Contracting Authority, at the provided email and phone number. Although the tender portal lists the agency as the Government of Canada, the actual procuring entity is the Municipality of Clarington, and the work is to be performed solely at the Eiram Stormwater Management Pond site in Bowmanville. Bidders must be qualified to execute all facets of the scope, including civil, hydraulic, and erosion control components, and are expected to comply with all technical, safety, and environmental requirements detailed in the official tender package.
