BACKGROUND:
H&M Excavating Ltd. is currently working on our ‘Gallagher Lake Siphon Repair’ project and are
close to wrapping up most of the work for this year in a couple of weeks. They would then
mobilize their crews to the ‘Station Street Reconstruction’ project if the project is awarded to
them. So far, staff and our Consultants have had very few issues and with this large scale
project and they have been doing a great job to date which should transfer over to this new
project.Station Street PH2 and the Storm Pipe Upgrades should commence early September and
continue into early November. Staff would have to work on scheduling if awarded and after
consulting our Engineers, they are confident the work will be completed this year.
