The Environment Agency awarded a contract to UKHSA for a programme of monitoring radioactivity in airborne particulates, total deposition, and rainwater.

The programme, established by the United Kingdom Atomic Energy Authority in the 1950s, produces one of the world's longest-running and most comprehensive data sets on atmospheric concentrations of artificial radionuclides.

It supports the UK Government's obligations under Article 35 of the Euratom Treaty to monitor radioactivity in air, soil, and water, and continues post-Euratom withdrawal to maintain standards.

The programme also provides data for the Radioactivity in Food and the Environment report and supplementary data to UK Environment Agencies on public radiation exposure.

The contract is valued at AUD 490,856 and covers a 4-year and 6-month term with options to extend twice for 2 years each, up to 8 years and 6 months, for sampling and analysis from 2024 to 2027 initially, potentially to 2031, with a 6-month handover and reporting lag.
