The Department of Economic Development (DED) for the State of Tasmania is
considering the appointment of a consultant to verify the achievement of
milestones attached to the Stage 2A Development Agreement between the Tasmanian
Government and Powerco and to provide other engineering advice as required
relating to the natural gas project.
The Stage 2A Development Agreement signed by the State and gas distributor
Powerco for the construction of a gas distribution network requires the
achievement of measurable milestones. These milestones are based on the number
of residential and small business premises passed at various stages of the
Stage 2A rollout.
Contract 04/0275 is seeking to appoint the services of consultants able to
verify that these milestones have been met and provide other engineering and
technical advice as required.
