Tender description
Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) has a requirement to strengthen our existing understanding of effective, properly scoped, monitoring objectives for both macroplastics and microplastics via freshwater monitoring strategies; identify fit-for-purpose monitoring approaches aligned with relevant sources, pathways and distribution across key environmental compartments (surface water, sediment, biota); and consider feasibility within current analytical and operational constraints. The work will leverage existing and widely recognized methods and initiatives from regional, national and international sources, where appropriate, to improve consistency, comparability, interoperability, reliability, and efficiency, while minimizing duplication of effort. See Annex Statement of Work in bid solicitation for details.
