Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) has a requirement to conduct Salmon Patrol Services stream enumeration surveys by swimming or on-foot in Pacific Fishery Management Areas 12, 13 and 14 (Johnstone Strait & Mainland Inlets).The intent is to establish a standing offer for each patrol area so that the contractor can be called up to provide services on an as and when required basis. The inclusion of estimated days per year in the cost proposal document is not a commitment by DFO. It is anticipated that resource managers will endeavour to be in contact with contractors to discuss an upcoming season and what possible level of effort may be considered so that contractors can plan their business accordingly. These discussions are not a commitment or guarantee by DFO to call up or contract for these estimates.Standing offers are not a guarantee of business and Fisheries and Oceans Canada is not obligated to use these services.Standing Offer DatesFebruary 1, 2023 through to January 31, 2028
