conditions. Dust can sometimes be blown into the air and reduce visibility. Cargo dust also

alleviate the risks of health hazards for employees working in operational areas and all areas

exposed to dust flow. In order to control and remove dust on site, an industrial road sweeper

vehicle(s) is always required to vacuum clean on the ground and stockpile areas as a dust

suppression mitigative measure, aimed at reducing dust accumulation, spread, and associated

risks including environmental compliance requirements.

The purpose of this project/scope is to acquire a service provider on a two (2) months’ contract,
