LONDON (AP) -- A consortium from France, Britain and the United States has been chosen as preferred bidder to manage Britain's nuclear waste reprocessing facility at Sellafield in northwestern England, the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority said Friday.
The nuclear waste processing facility is at Sellafield in northwestern England.
The bid by Nuclear Management Partners, consisting of Washington International Holdings. of Seattle, AMEC of London and AREVA of Paris beat three other bidders in the competition.
The Nuclear Decommissioning Authority will now negotiate details of the arrangement with the consortium, called Nuclear Management Partners, before awarding a contract in October.
The contract, initially for five years but potentially extending for 17, is for a site license to manage and operate the reprocessing and waste storage facilities at Sellafield, the former nuclear power stations Calder Hall and Windscale, the Capenhurst nuclear site and an Engineering Design Centre at Risley, all in northwestern England.
The contract will offer business worth $2.6 billion per year with an associated fee of approximately $100 million per year, the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority said.
