Réparation du téléphérique pour la station des Relevés hydrologiques du Canada sur la rivière Little South Klondike en aval du ruisseau Ross, au Yukon (09EA005)

Description

Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) maintains cableway and hydrometric gauging stations across approximately 500 sites in the Pacific and Yukon areas. The hydrometric data support activities such as policy development, infrastructure design, water allocation, flood and drought response, recreation, navigation, ecosystem protection, and scientific study. Hydrometric stations typically consist of a “walk-in” or “look-in” instrument shelter and a cableway or metering bridge to measure discharge. Other structures include helicopter pads and access stairways. Many of the hydrometric stations were built decades ago where structural degradation has occurred over time. As such, infrastructure deficiencies and safety concerns have been identified; requiring repairs and upgrades to return these stations to operational condition. ECCC requires a Contractor to conduct construction activities to rebuild the existing cableway to a level of safety acceptable for manned operation at the Water Survey of Canada Station, Little South Klondike River Below Ross Creek, Yukon.
