The Proposed Project

Correctional Service Canada requires the replacement of 4 fuel storage tanks at the Collins Bay Institution site. The four tanks are all greater than 20 years old and deteriorating. The existing tanks on-site are all concrete encased petroleum fuel storage tanks. The project will entail decommissioning and removal of the existing tanks, design of tanks and product transfer areas, and installation of new tank systems.
