SYDNEY WATER TREATMENT PLANT FILTER ADDITION

The project involves expanding the Sydney Water Treatment Plant’s filtration capacity by installing one new pressure filter, increasing the total number of filters from four to five. The new unit will be placed in a pre-designated area reserved for future expansion, which reduces the need for major structural changes and allows seamless integration with the existing plant layout. The scope encompasses the supply and installation of the filter itself, along with all associated piping, valves, controls, and electrical and instrumentation systems, ensuring full compatibility with the current treatment processes and supervisory control infrastructure. The work must be coordinated to avoid disruption to ongoing operations and to maintain compliance with operational and safety standards. The solicitation for this project is issued under the number CBRM-T24-2026 by the Cape Breton Regional Municipality, with a bid submission deadline of August 13, 2026.
