NIGP 312: Environmental Protective Equipment, Inside and Outside

NIGP 312 Environmental Protective Equipment, Inside and Outside is a Class code that encompasses hazardous waste collection, transportation, and disposal services; chemical-resistant components for water treatment systems; and related environmental compliance and remediation work being solicited across diverse state and local jurisdictions. State and local buyers are using this code to acquire hazardous waste management services with manifest preparation and disposal-facility coordination; sodium hypochlorite injection system components in specialized plastics for municipal water distribution; soil and groundwater sampling with laboratory analysis for environmental assessment; and mold remediation with post-remediation build-back at public facilities. Issuing bodies include county governments (Ocean County, New Jersey; Pima County and City of Tucson, Arizona), municipal utilities (Tucson Water), state environmental agencies (New Hampshire Department of Natural and Cultural Resources), and city public works departments. The scale of activity ranges from project-specific environmental assessments to multi-award blanket procurements and five-year framework agreements for recurring environmental services.

Recent opportunities are concentrated in the Southwest and Mid-Atlantic regions. Ocean County, New Jersey issued an IFB for household hazardous waste and department waste disposal services (OCHHW2026, due October 27, 2026), requesting unit rates or flat fees for various waste categories with full manifest documentation and federal-state regulatory compliance. Tucson Water posted an IFB for chemical-resistant parts (PVC, CPVC, polypropylene fittings in multiple diameters) supporting sodium hypochlorite injection systems serving over 200 active wells (IFB 240040, response date September 21, 2023, with anticipated multiple awards by part category). The New Hampshire Department of Natural and Cultural Resources solicited soil and groundwater sampling and laboratory analysis at Mount Washington State Park's summit under RFB RFBDNCR202702 (due July 8, 2026), including Quality Assurance Project Plan development, ten soil borings, low-flow well sampling, EPA-compliant laboratory analysis for organics and PFAS, and final reporting. The Town of Los Gatos issued an IFB for mold remediation and interior wall build-back at its Adult Recreation Center (Project 62629, due June 18, 2026, $100,000 estimated cost), with work subject to EPA mold-remediation guidelines and IICRC S520 standards and requiring a California General Building contractor's license.
