Description

This Opportunity Listing is a Pre-Notice for an upcoming procurement opportunity. This is not an actual procurement nor is the Ministry soliciting bids regarding this opportunity at this time. The Ministry expects to publicly post the procurement for tendering in January 2021. Please reserve questions about the procurement until the actual procurement is posted.

The Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry is seeking the provision of aerial spray operations for approximately 55,000 hectares of spruce forests to control a spruce budworm outbreak in Northeast Ontario.
Scope of Work
Spruce budworm causes defoliation which results in growth loss and tree mortality. Widespread deforestation can negatively impact forests and humans. These negative effects include:

- Increasing the incidence of forest fires in and around neighbouring communities; and
- Harming economic opportunities for Indigenous and non-Indigenous communities.

The Ministry’s mandated activities include protecting the public from natural disasters including forest fires and promoting economic growth and job creation by supporting the forestry industry. Managing the spruce budworm population through aerial spray operations is therefore an important Ministry project which the Ministry has undertaken in various calendar years based on scientific advice.

Experts have recommended that the Ministry implement a spray operation in 2021. As a result, the Ministry is seeking a vendor to conduct the aerial spray operations. The Ministry expects to execute the contract in April 2021 and begin spraying work in early June 2021.

Roughly 60% of the area to be sprayed is within 80 km of the Cochrane airport, with the remainder of the program area scattered between Chapleau Ontario to just North of North Bay Ontario.

The project will include:

- preparing a Safety and Security Plan, aircraft documentation, pilot documentation, and flight transects;
- providing adequate human resources and aircraft;
- demonstrating calibration of systems and capabilities of staff; and
- delivering the aerial spraying services.
