Description
This procurement regards consulting services for the Swedish Radiation Safety Authority’s (SSM) regarding seismology in connection to the review of geosphere performance for a repository for spent nuclear fuel. The work described here concerns for example the review of the SR-Site safety assessment published by the Swedish Nuclear Fuel and Waste Management Company (SKB). The SR-Site covers long-term nuclear safety and radiation protection for the post-closure phase and is part of the licence application by SKB. This procurement regards framework agreements to be established for a three-year review period. The framework agreements may be extended by a maximum of one additional year. This framework agreement may include other topics regarding seismology for consulting services for other organisational units at SSM. This can for example include review of frequency- and magnitude- distributions of natural earthquakes in connection with reviews of other nuclear facilities than the above described.
