The framework contract is intended to provide research and development to support the development and implementation of the Integrated Waste Management (IWM), Site Decommissioning and Remediation (SDR) and Critical Enabler (CE) strategies as defined by the NDA strategy. Combining research and development for these areas into one framework contract allows cross-over opportunities between themes e.g. characterisation, sustainable decommissioning techniques and practices, records/knowledge management and innovation. The topics covered include:
- Integrated Waste Management, which includes waste management data and information for planning and preparation, waste treatment and packaging, waste storage, waste transport and waste disposal
- Site Decommissioning and Remediation, which includes approaches to prioritisation of activities, characterisation approaches and technologies, asset management, site interim and end states, land quality management and site stewardship
- Critical Enablers, which underpin the development of NDA Strategy across the critical enablers identified in NDA strategy 4
Dr Paul Gilchrist, Managing Director of Eden Nuclear and Environment Ltd, said:
鈥淲e are extremely delighted to have the opportunity to build upon our last eight years of work and continue our support to the NDA鈥檚 in their new NRP Framework Enabling Decommissioning, Waste Management and Remediation. This framework is vitally important to the delivery of the UK鈥檚 civil nuclear decommissioning mission, and we will utilise the deep and diverse expertise from our team and our new partners to support the NDA over the next four years.鈥�
We have supported delivery programmes at several UK nuclear facilities including Sellafield and Wylfa Newyd for clients including Nuclear Waste Services and the Atomic Weapons Establishment.
