There are approximately 560m of wastewater pipe assets in Gisborne’s wastewater network that need addressing as part of the Gisborne District Council’s (Council) programme to renew and rehabilitate existing and aging underground wastewater assets.

The Council is seeking experienced and skilled contractors to design liners fit for purpose to extend the useful life of these assets with at least a further 50 years and successfully install the liners before 16 November 2020.

All contractors and subcontractors who conduct work for, or on behalf of Council, should be prequalified via SHE Software Ltd. SHE conducts an independent review of the H&S systems and after evaluation, contractors will gain an approved status. Contractors who are not currently pre-qualified through this scheme should go to the SHE Website or via the GDC website so that they can apply online to start the process.
