Provision of Emission Testing and Associated Services

The procurement contact named on the official notice.

Lancashire Renewables Ltd (LRL) is a company owned wholly by Lancashire County Council and Blackpool Council.

LRL operates two waste treatment facilities in Leyland and Thornton.

Each site is approximately 40 acres and contains numerous buildings responsible for the receival and processing of household and residual waste (circa 400,000 tonnes p.a.).

Lancashire Renewables Ltd has ongoing requirement for the provision of emissions testing services across both sites.

The scope of the contract includes bioaerosol and emissions testing associated with waste processing activities, undertaken in accordance with the Environment Agency's Technical Guidance M9.

This includes testing across biofilters - ammonia scrubbers, closed biofilters, and point source emissions to air from stacks, with sampling undertaken at appropriate locations.

The scope of the contract may be subject to change to reflect operational changes within Lancashire Renewables Ltd or any to accommodate any permit variation that could occur.

As LRL plans to recommence its anaerobic digestion process around August-September 2026, the contract scope includes testing services for associated plant, such as biogas engine stacks and the emergency flare.
