A nearly $100 million international tender has been announced for dismantling the cement sarcophagus built in 1986 around the still smoldering remains of the damaged reactor at Chernobyl. In Nov. 2016, a new, $1.7 billion containment structure was rolled over the 30-year-old sarcophagus. The tender for removing and safely disposing of the old containment structure was announced Monday by the State Specialized Enterprise Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant, a unit of the Ministry of Ecology and Natural Resources. The deadline for bids is April 15. ProZorro will hold the auction May 21.
