Tenders are invited for Perseverance Landfill Rehabilitation.

The Government of Grenada (GOG) has received financing from the Caribbean Development Bank (CDB) in an amount equivalent to USD 10.7 million towards the cost of the Integrated Solid Waste Management Project (the Project) and intends to apply a portion of the proceeds of this financing to eligible payments under this contract. Payment by CDB will be made only at the request of (GOG) and upon approval by CDB, and will be subject, in all respects, to the terms and conditions of the Financing Agreement. The Financing Agreement prohibits withdrawal from the financing account for the purpose of any payment to persons or entities, or for any import of goods, if such payment or import, to the knowledge of CDB, is prohibited by a decision of the United Nations Security Council taken under Chapter VII of the Charter of the United Nations. No party other than (GOG) shall derive any rights from the Financing Agreement or have any claim to the proceeds of the Financing.

The Project is being implemented by the Grenada Solid Waste Management Authority (GSWMA). GSWMA has contracted Consultants who will assist with delivering the Project.
