B. REQUEST FOR EXPRESSIONS OF INTEREST DOCUMENTS

.1 Geotechnical work has not been performed on the proposed site for the Water
Treatment Plant Upgrade.
.2 The Assiniboine River will be the source water for both the existing process streams

as source water on an emergency basis for the existing process streams.
Further groundwater investigations are not included in the scope of work for this
project.

C. DRAWINGS
.1 Further to Section 4.0 General Information, City of Brandon Water Treatment Plant
Upgrades DRAFT Drawings - Figures 001 to 008 are not included in the Water Utility
Master Plan. These Figures are a stand-alone drawing package representing the
Conceptual plans as referenced in Section 2.0 Project Background and Overview
and supersede the Figures in the Water Utility Master Plan.
.2 Figures 001 to 008 show two separate Chemical Buildings; however, the City would
be open to a single Chemical Building should the implementation and timing
accommodate a single-building design.
The north Chemical Building is intended to house the chemical tanks and dosing
systems required for the new membrane process train.
The south Chemical Building is intended to house the new tanks and dosing systems
for chemicals used in the existing process trains as a centralized and upgraded
facility. The plans do not show orthophosphate storage and dosing in the south
Chemical Building; however, orthophosphate should be included in the scope of work
for this building.
The south Chemical building design would require expedition should the Clean Water
and Wastewater Fund funding be approved. The chemicals required for the north
