Western Bay of Plenty District Council (Western Bay) is seeking a solution for the construction of a new stormwater main (concrete pipe ranging from 1050dia to 1200dia, approximately 200 m long) from the new subdivision at 83 Dunlop Rd and construction of a new engineered stormwater treatment wetland pond including bypass inlet structure, bypass channel and outlet to the Ohineanganga Stream. The wetland also require appropriate planting and will provide extended detention and water quality treatment functions.
The target date for the pond to receive flows is by the end of 2021 from the sub-division.

What’s important to us?
The ability to deliver on time, undertake the different components of the scope of works, and also meet the environmental demands of working in a flood plain will be key factors to win the tender. Pre-conditions include a good track record on similar projects for your team and offering the right people to do the work.
We consider this project medium risk as the work on the pond takes place in a low-laying flood plain and high groundwater or heavy rain may impact negatively on the progress.
Good relations with the local landowner has to be maintained. Note that the access way to the pond site is a private roadway and has to be maintained and shared throughout the construction period.
