Notice Information

Notice Title

PROC.04.0180 - External support for the assessment of RAPID's gate one submissions

Notice Description

One of the goals of RAPID is to facilitate the timely and coordinated development of strategic water resources infrastructure schemes so that they are construction-ready early in the 2025-30 period. This acceleration is needed to increase the resilience of our water resources; and to address the deficits identified by the National Framework for Water Resources. We require four staff to support the assessment of solutions for the period from 21 June to 19 November 2021. They will be required to work on 37 hrs per week basis. In general, this work will consist of a desk-based assessment of each of the received submissions and appended documentation. It will support the development of RAPID's recommendations and Ofwat's final decisions.
