TRURO - Two years after opening, officials with the Rath Eastlink Community Centre have issued a request for quotations on a new ceiling over the ice surface.

Rath Eastlink Community Centre.

The Municipality of Colchester County has the tender on its website - the tender is the supply and installation of a low emissivity ceiling over the ice surface in the Community Credit Union Arena.

The new ceiling would reduce radiant loads on the ice surface and it is anticipated it would improve the ice quality while reducing energy consumed through the ice plant system.

To avoid as much disruption as possible to the users of the facility, the installation will need to be co-ordinated with planned program activities at the facility.

The preferred installation period would be between July 1 and Aug. 1 this summer when the ice is removed, however, it isn't a necessity. The ice, says the tender, doesn't need to be removed so installation could also be done between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. between April 1 and July 1.

Deadline for submissions is 3 p.m. March 25.

The full document on the request for quotations can be found online at http://www.colchester.ca/tenders-proposals.
