Two washouts have been identified and determined for mitigation in the natural gas transmission system on pipelines 16.0300.100 Hatton - Success (South) NPS 14, and 05.0900.100 St. Isidore De Bellevue NPS 2.  TransGas is seeking alternative mitigation solutions for HDD (horizontal directional drilling) replacement. Proponents will need to provide sound design and construction supervision for both sites if the sites are applicable for alternative mitigation methods.  A more specific description of the project will follow in a Request for Proposal

SaskEnergy/TransGas is committed to the promotion of the industrial and economic growth of the NWPTA region.  SaskEnergy/TransGas may choose to only accept bids from NWPTA region suppliers or give preference to bidders who are NWPTA region suppliers.  SaskEnergy/TransGas has the sole, absolute and final discretion and authority to determine whether a bidder is a NWPTA region supplier.

This EOI and any resulting RFP is expected to pertain to and enable SaskEnergy/TransGas to conduct its mandated business and ability to deliver for resale, natural gas services to SaskEnergy customers, and therefore be exempt from the application of the Canadian Free Trade Agreement and the Canada-EU Trade Agreement.
