## Summary

The MCA - Maritime and Coastguard Agency has awarded a contract for the provision of SS James Eagan Layne Counter Pollution Support - Vessel Hire Services. The procurement stage was completed, with a contract value of £77,873.18 GBP. The contract period spans from 4th December 2023 to 31st December 2023. The procurement method used was direct, specifically a Single tender action (below threshold).

This tender opportunity to provide pollution-control vessels offers a chance for businesses, especially SMEs, to contribute to environmental protection efforts. Companies involved in maritime support services, vessel operations, and pollution control technologies would be well-suited to compete. The procurement's focus on urgent response services also presents an opportunity for businesses with experience in emergency operations and logistics.

## Notice

In November 2022, the wreck began to leak oil in a continuous stream and had the potential to cause environment pollution Whitsand Bay. MCA Counter Pollution and Salvage (CPS) coordinated a response and in December 2022 the wreck was successfully, albeit temporarily 'patched' using magnetic blanking plates reinforced by several hundred sandbags filled with concrete. The matter was then referred to the Department for Transport (DfT) and was included in wider ongoing discussion on potentially polluting wrecks in the UK EEZ (Exclusive Economic Zone). Recently the wreck started leaking again and a full response was stood up by the Coastguard, vessels were required for the CPS at sea and on land response, going out to the market in a competitive tender exercise during an emergency response situation would cause significant delays that would likely have a severe impact on the MCA's efforts to fulfil its obligations to protect the marine environment.
