Hazard and Risk Assessment of Slopes Below 7 Mile Road

The Sun Peaks Mountain Resort Municipality is seeking qualified vendors to conduct a hazard and risk assessment of slopes located below 7 Mile Road, specifically focusing on an unstable slope situated on both municipal and Crown/private land above the Wastewater Treatment Plant. This slope poses a potential threat to the continued operation of the wastewater facility, and the study aims to evaluate geological instability, identify risk factors, and assess upstream conditions that could contribute to or exacerbate future failure events. The project scope requires a comprehensive analysis of the slope and its surrounding environment to ensure long-term operational safety and to inform mitigation strategies, with the understanding that the assessment must account for the complex ownership structure of the affected terrain. The municipality has secured $150,000 in funding through a combination of provincial grant support from the Union of BC Municipalities and municipal contributions to finance this critical investigation. Proposals must be submitted by May 28, 2026, under solicitation number BC228550, with the NAICS code 541715 indicating engineering services related to environmental assessment. The primary point of contact for inquiries is Brecon Satchwell, the Contracting Authority, who can be reached via email. The work is to be performed on-site at the specified location near 1300 Industrial Way, and vendors are expected to reference Appendix C for contextual aerial imagery of the study area.
