Technical support to regulatory assessments of solid radioactive waste disposal

This is a market engagement opportunity. The Environment Agency regulates the environmental safety of radioactive waste generated and disposed in England. Operators of nuclear sites in England, including radioactive waste disposal sites, must have a permit from the Environment Agency. The Environment Agency anticipates technical support being required from suitably experienced consultants to support its future work in the following areas: - regulation of the LLWR site in west Cumbria and other LLW disposal sites across England - our current pre-application advice on, and future regulation of, geological disposal - other matters relating to solid radioactive waste regulation In order to assess its options for procurement of these expert consultancy services, the Environment Agency wish to engage with UK and international organisations that have recent and relevant experience of providing contracting support in these areas. Further information on the services expected to be required to support these areas of work and how to participate in the market engagement exercise can be found in the attached 'Regulatory Technical Support - Further Information' document or by emailing radwaste.enquiry@environment-agency.gov.uk using the title 'Regulatory Technical Support Further Information Request' in the subject heading.
