Description

The provisions for services to collect, transport and process existing High Activity Sealed Radioactive Sources (SRS) using a pre-determined disposal route. The Home Office are leading a cross government programme of activities which seeks to replace caesium-137 irradiators used in biological and biomedical research facilities within the UK, where a viable alternative technology or solution exists. The Nuclear Decommissioning Authority (NDA) with Nuclear Transport Solutions (NTS) acting as their agent has been instructed by the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ) to establish and support the collection of High Activity Sealed Radioactive Source (HASS) through a suitable disposal route. The NDA Group have been tasked with enabling a disposal route for these sources into Sellafield. Note, Sellafield is the current waste management route for sealed sources. NTS is a wholly owned subsidiary of the NDA which has extensive and proven expertise in irradiated fuel management and transporting nuclear materials. The provisions for services to collect, transport and process existing Sealed Radioactive Sources (SRS) using a pre-determined disposal route. Proposed Duration of this Framework will be 7 year plus option to extend by 1+1 year (9 year). The Maximum Budget including permissible extensions is £14.22m
