Zones 2/3 - Decommissioning Framework Agreement

• Split into 3 lots
• Decommissioning scope
• Demolition including independent third party
  requirement for intelligent customer
• Waste Streaming (ability to use supply chain if
  appropriate for waste disposal or recycling
  options)
• Contractors can bid for any combination of
  lots.
• Seek appropriate commercial arrangements for best
  athlete for the task

18
Zones 2/3 Procurement opportunities

• Anticipated value 25million (Zone 2/3 only -
  excludes SAV project)
• Approximate split
• Decommissioning Framework Agreement 18m
• Design contracts - 2m
• MDSW - 4m
• Analytical Labs - 1m
• Separate opportunities
• B204 stack demolition open OJEU
• Future decommissioning technology trials i.e.
  cerium nitrate
• Decommissioning Framework Agreement
• Other non OJEU contracts

Project Status Evap D

• Project successfully through FEL 3 Gate
• 50M interim funding sanctioned - sufficient
  funding for project to progress to July09
• PAIS review for Evaporator D, Evaporator E and
  New Highly Active Storage Tanks (HAST) projects
  complete and subsequent request for full project
  sanction submitted to the NDA
• Safety Case with NII and EA for consideration
• Detailed design and substantiation continuing
• Procurement and Construction commenced now
  funding received

Evap D Project Timeline 2009/10

• Site Enabling Works March 2009
• Start of Raft Construction May 2009
• Start of Cell Wall Construction July 2009
• Tower Crane Installation August 2009
• Start of MEI Installation March 2010

SPRS Supply Chain Management

• Security Door Supply
• Gunnebo UK Ltd, a new supplier to SL have
  supplied 8 substantial security doors to the
  project within 12 weeks following contract
  placement alleviating a potential programme
  delay.
• Can Contents Monitor Supply
• Canberra UK Ltd completed early manufacture of
  two Can Contents Monitors which facilitated
  extended works testing, attended by key
  operations, construction and commissioning
  personnel to enable improved site end
  performance.

22
Partnering SPRS Key Supply Chain Successes

• Mechanical Commissioning
• Babcock Nuclear Services (BNS) mechanical
  commissioning progress / earned value continues
  to perform well against the contract estimate
  (underpinning by SL commissioning capability
  group norms).
• Temporary Construction Access Openings (TCAOs)
• Kier Construction Ltd are working closely with
  the SL project management team to achieve the key
  programme requirement for South End TCAO
  completion.

Additional Evap Capacity Replacement HASTs

• Performance - Both projects have now re-launched
  and are on target to achieve the FEL 2 gate to
  plan
• Partnering - Procurement package for post FEL 2
  is being developed in parallel for issue Q1
  FY10-11 (April June 2010)
• Partnering - Procurement will loosely follow the
  Early Contractor Involvement (ECI) model
• Scope - Metrics are
• Building size approx 130,000m3 (Heavy
  shielding/containment, high quality process PE
  and controls systems)
• gt500m overall cost early estimate (parametric
  model)
• Indicative project time-scales are
• Select (FEL gate 2) April - July 2010 (engage
  contractor during this phase) Define (FEL gate
  3) 2012
• Execute (Gate 4) 2016

Partnering EPS3

• Experienced first direct impact from current
  economic climate
• Butterleys were being closely monitored (trading
  difficulties apparent in redundancies and slow
  progress)
• Joint agreement to de-scoping transferred BEPPS
  Equipment to LOR. Other scope items too far
  advanced .
• Sadly, Butterleys now in administration LOR
  moving the shield door for finishing elsewhere
• Joint re-programming undertaken to address
  execution pressures
• CHt suggested modular, weather-tight electrical
  equipment structures (c/w off site fit out and
  terminations)
• Benefits installation and subsequent
  weather-tight roof above 36m east reducing
  critical path on EI installation
• Further cooperation on commissioning strategy,
  planning and documentation. Very positive
  response to capability concerns now
  independently engaged BNS to support all-round
  benefits!
• Hosted visit by potential new Client we want
  your success to

Our Expectations for the Supply Chain

• Continuous improvements to safety performance
• Feedback we value your ideas and suggestions so
  please keep coming forward
• Learning from Experience both at Sellafield and
  shared learning from other jobs
• Teamwork not a them and us attitude
