The Municipal District of Taber, (hereafter referred to as “The M.D.” or “MD”), is seeking an appropriate and qualified Consultant to complete a feasibility study for a new location and schematic design for the Enchant Wastewater Lagoon.

The current lagoon is operating under Approval No. RS01108, Date Signed October 24, 1994.

A capacity assessment was recently performed and will be provided to the successful proponent for information purposes.

•        Survey of the existing wastewater system for preliminary design.
