    Brief

    The Welsh Government is seeking research to support the development of regulatory policy for disused tips. The Disused Tips Authority requires evidence-based guidance on how to conduct preliminary and full assessments, categorise risks, monitor conditions, and carry out inspections of disused tips. The research should identify best practices, methodologies, and standards from other sectors and regulatory frameworks that can be adapted for managing disused tips. This contract is ideal for organisations with expertise in environmental regulation, risk assessment, monitoring frameworks, or experience from related sectors such as mining, waste management, or contaminated land remediation.
