Description

The Mining Remediation Authority is a non-departmental public body and partner organisation of the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ). The Mining Remediation Authority exists to manage the legacy from Great Britain's coal mining past and has a mission to make a better future for people and the environment in mining areas.

The Mining Remediation Authority manages an estate of assets, in relation to the treatment and monitoring of mine water across England, Scotland and Wales and other assets associated with managing the legacy of coal mining in Britain. Many of the mine water treatment schemes contain reed beds that require periodic refurbishment and maintenance.

The services are to carry out reed bed refurbishments at Mining Remediation Authority sites. Reed bed refurbishment is defined as the removal of accumulated sludge, biomass or other material, the transplanting of existing reed stock or planting of new reed stock, restoring the substrate where necessary, and the repair, replacement or upgrade of reed bed infrastructure where instructed.

The full scope of services can be found in the tender documents for this requirement.
