Instructions to proponentsinvitationthe capital regional district ("crd") invites detailed proposals from interested parties (the "proponents") in strict accordance with these proposal documents (crd, rfp no. 17-1912). The proposals will be evaluated for the selection of a contractor (or contractors) with the intent to enter into a contract (the "contract") to provide the services described in appendix "a".overview (the "services")the hartland landfill attracts large numbers of nuisance birds, mostly seagulls, crows and ravens due to the presence of food waste being disposed. The number of birds is seasonal, fluctuating depending on the availability of natural food sources elsewhere.the birds create a number of problems, including health risks to crd staff, contractors, neighbours, and the public due to direct exposure to flying birds or from droppings, damage to equipment and on-site facilities. Efficient bird control also minimizes the spreading of litter on the landfill and adjacent properties.the use of trained raptors (hawks and falcons) at the hartland landfill to discourage large numbers of nuisance birds has been used successfully since 2009. To achieve the goal of making the landfill less attractive for birds and to reduce the numbers of birds on the landfill property and surrounding area, bird control needs to be integrated into the landfill operation and must also include a variety of deterrents.the scope of services required includes the provision of suitable bird(s) of prey to harass and deter seagulls, crows and other birds from using the site as a food source and place to congregate. The use of a variety of deterrents to prevent the birds from becoming accustomed to any one method of harassment is expected.a contract will not necessarily result from this request for proposal ("rfp").closing time and date for submission of proposalsthe crd will accept three (3) copies of each proposal, in accordance with the instructions contained herein, at the following specific physical location:attention: tom watkinsmanager, policy & planningenvironmental resource management, parks & environmental servicesaddress: capital regional district625 fisgard streetvictoria, bc, v8w 1r7fax: 250-360-3270on or before the following date and time (the "closing time"):time: 11:00 a.m. [local time]date: 28 august 2017the crd reserves the right to extend the closing time at its sole discretion.proposals must not be sent by fax or electronically.not a tenderthis is a request for proposal and not a tender call.proposal documentseach proponent will ensure it provides its correct name, address, email address, telephone number and facsimile number to the crd at the time the proponent receives a set of proposal documents.
