BIOMEDICAL WASTE REMOVAL
Notice is given that, after completing its inquiry, the Canadian International Trade Tribunal made a determination on December 7, 2023, with respect to a complaint filed by Stericycle, ULC, of Mississauga, Ontario, pursuant to subsection 30.11(1) of the Canadian International Trade Tribunal Act, concerning a procurement (solicitation 50100-23-4243062) by the Correctional Service of Canada. The solicitation was for the provision of biomedical waste removal services.
Stericycle, ULC alleged that the successful bidder should not have been awarded the contract, as it was facing an enforcement order under the Alberta Environmental Protection and Enhancement Act for improper disposal and storage of biomedical and hazardous waste. Stericycle, ULC requested the issuance of a new solicitation for the designated contract.
Having examined the evidence presented by the parties and considered the provisions of various trade agreements, the Tribunal determined that the complaint was not valid.
