RP OPS ESQ and FMF CB provide a variety of environmental services to DND at Canadian Forces Base (CFB) Esquimalt in Victoria, British Columbia.

RP OPS ESQ’s services include sanitary discharges, management of drinking water facilities, and disposal of contaminated soil, wastewater, waste oil and hazardous materials. While each service may have specific parameters of concern, RP OPS ESQ will typically request analyses of analytic groups (e.g., total metals or PAH compounds), with analytical results to be provided for specific parameters (e.g., lead or benzo[a]pyrene) within each group.

FMF CB supports the repair and maintenance services and naval engineering support to the Pacific Fleet. The services they provide includes management of discharges, management of dry-dock and electroplating facilities; disposal of wastewater, waste oil, and hazardous materials; monitoring of effluent and deionized water quality. While each service may have specific parameters of concern, FMF CB will typically request analyses of analyte groups (e.g. total metals or PAH compounds), with analytical results to be provided for specific parameters (e.g. naphthalene or hexavalent chromium) within each group.

This standing offer will provide services to 2 different areas within the Department of National Defence (DND): The Real Property Operations Unit (Pacific) Section Esquimalt (RP OPS ESQ) and the Fleet Maintenance Facility CAPE BRETON (FMFCB) which is responsible to support the operations of the Maritime Forces Pacific Fleet.

This standing offer does not require the Contractor to provide on-site monitoring or sample collection services. DND personnel will collect and submit all samples directly to the Contractor's courier.
