About

The Coal Authority awarded a contract modification to Severn Trent Services Operations UK Limited for the management, operation, and maintenance of mine water treatment schemes, monitoring sites, mine gas fan stations, and land drainage pump stations.

The original contract, tendered in 2014, was set to expire on 31 December 2024, but was extended for an additional 18 months due to unforeseen challenges, including a severe flooding incident in Wales that required a coordinated response and diverted resources.

The extension, valued at approximately £40 million, allows for the continuation of services while an open market procurement for a replacement contract is conducted, with the new contract expected to commence in June 2026 after a six-month mobilisation period.
