Notice Title

Provision of Services: Radiological Habits Surveys

Notice Description

SEPA requires an experienced organisation to undertake 'Habits Surveys' around the nuclear licensed sites in Scotland as well as a survey along the Solway Firth. The requirement for the Contract is to provide the site specific habits survey data for use in defining the greatest exposure pathways to the local population (ie. a survey of those local habits that are likely to result in greater doses to individuals than the average local dose) which will assist SEPA in defining the representative person.

Lot Information

Lot 1

Together with the routine Monitoring Programme the Habits Survey Programme provide the essential data for assessing the various doses received by members of the public due to exposure to radioactivity in the environment. The surveys will provide quantitative data on occupancy times and consumption rates of local food to be determined. These data will be used to determine the impact of authorised radioactive waste discharges on the local population. SEPA is required by the Scottish Government to ensure that no member of the public receives a dose of 1 millisievert per year.

Renewal: Options to extend for two periods of 12 months
