Overview

Waikato Regional Council (Council) invites proposals for the Structural Audits of Flood Protection and Land Management Assets 2024-2027.

The Structural Audit programme is an ongoing series of projects conducted every summer to determine the condition of our most critical flood protection and land management assets. Waikato Regional Council is seeking a three-year contract for external cleaning of these assets as well as cleaning and CCTV footage of the pipes.

Waikato Regional Council is looking for a provider with the knowledge and equipment to clean and inspect pipes from 150mm diameter to 1800mm diameter. These pipes could be in either urban or rural locations so plant must have the ability to traverse farm tracks and paddocks. The preservation of Native Fish is a top priority and whilst Council will carry out most of the fish recovery work, it is important that the provider understands the importance of fish preservation and has fish friendly equipment.

The Waikato region is a diverse and resource rich region in the heart of the upper North Island. It spans from south Auckland at its northern boundary, to Tongariro National Park in the south, and from the Coromandel peninsula in the east to the west coast at Mokau. WRC are responsible for the coastal and marine. environment from the high tide mark to 12 nautical miles offshore, covering 10,000km2 in area and including 1200km of coastline.

This is an opportunity to be directly contributing to the upkeep, and maintenance of our flood protection and land management assets; helping to make the Waikato region a better place to live and work.
