In plain English
North Northamptonshire Council wants a contractor to run and maintain the systems that manage gas and liquid coming out of a closed rubbish tip (landfill) on the northern edge of Corby. Landfill gas is produced as buried waste breaks down, and leachate is the contaminated liquid that seeps from it, so the work keeps these emissions under control. The contract is worth £273,000.
What the buyer wants
• Operate and maintain the landfill gas and leachate management systems at the Corby closed landfill site, which covers about 13 hectares and holds an estimated 1.4 million cubic metres of buried waste. • Help the council meet its statutory duties under Part 2A of the Environmental Protection Act 1990 to manage the risks from gas and leachate emissions. • Keep the site compliant with its Environmental Permit and Trade Effluent Consent.
Requirements
What could rule a small business out: The notice does not list specific qualifications, insurance or past experience, but the work must keep the council compliant with Part 2A of the Environmental Protection Act 1990 and the site's Environmental Permit and Trade Effluent Consent, so a business without experience of regulated landfill gas and leachate work is likely to be ruled out.
