The Coal Authority awarded a contract to RSK Environment Ltd for specialist technical support to scope, design, build, and report outputs from a predictive hydrogeological and geochemical model.

The model assessed the potential impacts of poor quality rising mine water on surface water and groundwater receptors and provided the technical basis for selecting the optimum mine water management strategy.

The study area was in the English East Midlands and comprised a delineated area of abandoned coal workings that were partially flooded and rising.

The work included the design, creation, and running of the model, as well as producing model outputs, risk assessments, and technical reporting.

The contract value was £243,999.
