Description

The National Coal Mining Museum for England is aware of the need to manage our waste effectively, efficiently and in an environmentally friendly manner. In line with our objectives we will look to appoint a contractor to assist in the extraction of waste ochre from the settlement lagoons on site at Caphouse Colliery, Overton, Near Wakefield, WF4 4RH. The waste must be removed from the settlement lagoons with the minimum level of disruption on site and with the minimum level of impact aesthetically, functionally and environmentally.

As the site is part of the National Coal Mining Museum for England visitors and guests may be on site so any solution must bear that in mind.

We will welcome proposals involving the removal of waste ochre sludge in liquid, semi-liquid or solid forms. Any engagement at this stage may determine if one solution is deemed more preferable or high scoring than others however initially we are open to suggestions from suppliers, contractors and interested parties.

It would be the intention to conduct any desludge operation at regularly scheduled intervals until any future policy or programme is instituted to replace it. Due to other developments and trials on site Details will be included in the full tender documentation.

Further details will be made available and any enquiries at this stage will be readily welcomed. Site visits will be an expected part of any PQQ process once ITT documents are posted.
