## Summary

The Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs (DEFRA) has issued a tender titled "Assessing the Impact of Wood Landing on Landfill Methane Emissions (WR1805)" for research services.

The tender is open for submissions until 3rd November 2023, with a contract period starting on 1st December 2023 and ending on 1st April 2025. The location for this procurement is in London, SW1P 3JR, United Kingdom.
