2.2 - Non-drilled water intake works contractor

Subcategory 2.2 (Contractor for non-drilled water intake works) is a specialized contractor licence. It authorizes construction work related to non-drilled water intake works such as surface wells and spring catchments, as well as similar or related construction work.

To obtain this licence, the future guarantor must pass the common core exams (Administration, Job Site Safety Management, Project and Job Site Management) as well as the specific Execution of Construction Work (ETC) exam for subcategory 2.2.

This licence notably authorizes work related to gelinite wells, dug surface wells with suction, well points and the sealing (plugging) of wells. Note, however, that the installation of pumping systems requires subcategory 2.3.

The RBQ execution of construction work exam, which lasts 3 hours, is divided into four main assessment themes:

• Definitions and types of systems.
• Legislative, normative and regulatory framework.
• Reading plans and specifications.
• Standards and execution of the work.

Whatever type of training you choose, 100 % online, in class or via Zoom, you always benefit from the RBQ educational support provided by our RBQ instructors. Their role goes beyond teaching the material: they are available to answer your questions, guide you and help you better understand the essential concepts.
