The Mining Remediation Authority (MRA) has gone out to tender with a contract forits West Cannock pumping test and temporary treatment with a total estimated value of £1.2 million including VAT.
The MRA is inviting tenders for a contract for the provision to undertake a 3-month pumping test with a discharge of up to 10 litres per second from the existing borehole at its West Cannock coalfield.
