About Consultation
This document seeks comments on Ofwat’s proposal to issue a further waiver notice to Bazalgette Tunnel Limited (trading as Tideway), the infrastructure provider (IP) appointed by Thames Water to deliver the Thames Tideway Tunnel Project (the Project).
Since issuing Tideway with a project licence, on 24 August 2015, we have issued [four] notices under regulation 6(8) of the Water Industry (Specified Infrastructure Projects) (English Undertakers) Regulations 2013 (the Regulations) dis-applying to a limited extent Tideway’s obligations to apply the procurement provisions set out in the Regulations. Tideway has now requested a further waiver which we have considered and propose granting, subject to any consultation responses we receive.
We welcome your responses to this consultation by close of business on 4 December 2017.
You can email your responses to [email protected] or post them to: The Thames Tideway Tunnel Project, Ofwat, Centre City Tower, 7 Hill Street, Birmingham B5 4UA.
