• Description:
• This Request for Proposals (the “RFP”) is an invitation by the University of Ottawa (the “University”) to prospective proponents to submit proposals for Holding systems for salmonid fishes, as further described in Appendix D (RFP Particulars) Section A (the “Deliverables”).This goal of this project is to provide modern, flexible holding systems for salmonid fishes of various sizes. The holding systems currently available in the Aquatics Facillity at the University of Ottawa are about 30 years old and are at end-of-life, requiring high rates of water turnover, as well as constant technical support and maintenance. Also, all of the current systems are large volume tanks (~1,200 L), which are not ideal for holding small groups of fish. Therefore, the goal of the current project is to purchase and install Recirculating Aquaculture Systems (RAS) with tanks varying in size from 1,200 L to 200 L. In addition, a vertical incubator for salmonid embryos and larvae (a “Heath tray”) will be purchased and installed to allow salmonid fishes to be reared in the Aquatics Facility. These holding systems will support research programs focused on the physiology of salmonid fishes and their responses to challenges such as high temperature and/or environmental toxicants.Download 45483-2a-RFP main document for details.
