## About this tender

The Coal Authority's schemes and solutions to the treatment of mine water prevents uncontrolled discharges of mine water and controls mine water levels within the underlying mine water blocks. Construction of treatment facilities are critical in preserving our natural environment from the after effects of mining, mitigating the risk of ocherous deposits smothering river beds, which impacts the ecosystem and cause's significant localised harm.

The Coal Authority are seeking to appoint a number of Contractors to deliver design and construct and construct only services for new mine water treatment schemes and also to refurbish existing schemes along with associated minor works. The treatment of metal mine water will also fall within this scope to mitigate pollution caused by historical metal mining.

Typical construction activities conducted within this framework may comprise of;

- A brand new or major refurbishment of a minewater treatment scheme
- Refurbishment and upgrade of existing minewater treatment schemes

A further breakdown of the types of construction activities can be found on the attachment contained in this notice.

We have an ambition to be a net zero organisation by 2030 and we will continue to decarbonise our activities.
