Brodsworth Monitoring Borehole

The project involves the completion of a new mine water pumping borehole on land north of Brodsworth Country Park in South Yorkshire, following a compliant open tender under the new Procurement Act 2023 regulations.

The key objectives set by the MRA include, maintaining a deviation of less than 2m from the planned location, effectively screening and sealing overlying aquifers, and mitigating risks of mine water pollution. The project also aims to protect and enhance the environment, minimise disruption to local residents and businesses, and ensure safety for the communities served.

Additionally, the project seeks to actively manage risks, deliver best value through competitive procurement, and transfer risks to the most capable parties.
