Description

The Coal Authority (CA) is a non-departmental public body and partner organisation of the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ) with a mission to make a better future for people and the environment in mining areas.

The Coal Authority manages the effects of past coal mining, including subsidence damage claims which are not the responsibility of licensed coal mine operators. It deals with mine water pollution from both coal and metal mines and other mining legacy issues.

In partnership with the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ), the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA), the Environment Agency (EA), Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA) and Natural Resources Wales (NRW), the Coal Authority delivers a program of mine water treatment and monitoring across England, Scotland and Wales, ensuring that the mine water is effectively treated before entering natural watercourses.

Operation and maintenance (O&M) of the Coal Authority's Mine Water Treatment Schemes (MWTS) and other legacy assets supports the Coal Authority's mission and is critical for the protection of drinking water aquifers and surface water bodies including rivers, lakes, and the sea.

The O&M service is currently under contract, was awarded in 2014 and will expire on 30th June 2026.

The Coal Authority seeks to let a new O&M contract for the services required to ensure regulatory compliance and protect public safety.
