Nuclear specialist Jacobs has been selected to provide its expertise at the UK’s national disposal facility for low-level radioactive waste in Cumbria, as part of a four-year deal.
Jacobs, which has operations in Cheshire and Manchester, was selected by LLW Repository as sole service provider on the Repository Infrastructure Framework.
The framework, effective from June 2020, covers a wide range of services to help LLWR manage the repository, in West Cumbria, on behalf of the Government’s Nuclear Decommissioning Authority.
Jacobs’ support includes developing strategies for appropriate storage solutions, control and electronic systems enhancement and other technical services, all underpinned by core engineering design, construction and programme/project management capabilities.
