About

Defra Network eTendering Portal awarded a contract to UK Health Security Agency for independent monitoring of radioactivity in effluent samples to support the Environment Agency and Natural Resources Wales (NRW) in regulating the nuclear industry under the Environmental Permitting Regulations 2016 (EPR-16) in England and Wales.

The programme involves independent analysis of radioactive effluents from industrial premises, mainly nuclear licensed sites, focusing primarily on liquid effluent discharges with a smaller amount of work on gaseous effluent discharges.

Managed by the Environment Agency's Reactor Assessment and Radiological Monitoring Team, the results are compared with operator data to ensure analytical standards are maintained.

The contract value is £1,080,000.
