What is being bought

Published requirement description

East Devon District Council (EDDC) abstracts water for the Mill Leat (“the Leat”) from the River Otter at the Head Weir, located upstream of Ottery St Mary. The abstraction is controlled by a weir at the upstream end of the Mill Leat (“the Weir”). Deterioration of the Weir structure has resulted in flows bypassing the crest, leading to inadequate water levels in the River Otter for the adjacent Head Weir fish pass and eel pass to function effectively. The proposed works comprise the removal and replacement of the existing Weir structure, together with maintenance dredging of the Leat. The Contractor shall be responsible for obtaining all relevant Environmental Permits.

What this means for your bid

Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
