Relocation of the RWM Specimen Store Contents

Tender description

NWS hold samples and exhibits to support its technical work and its communications and stakeholder engagement work. These samples range from small-scale samples up to full-size waste containers. None of the samples contain radioactive material. The samples are presently stored in a warehouse on the Magnox site at Harwell. As part of on-going Magnox decommissioning work this warehouse will soon become unavailable to NWS. As such, an alternative storage solution is required for NWS’s samples, and the current store must be vacated. NWS have reviewed the inventory of samples and have identified a significant proportion of samples that are no longer required and could be disposed of. As such, there is a need to identify disposal routes for some of the samples, and then dispose of them.
