NIGP 40521: Gasoline, Marine White

NIGP 40521 Gasoline, Marine White is an Item code that covers the supply and delivery of marine fuel—unleaded gasoline and diesel—to state and local government harbors, marinas, and marine operations. State and local governments procure this code for scheduled and on-demand fueling at waterfront facilities, with suppliers managing bulk storage, maintaining 24-hour delivery windows, and pricing fuel against published rack averages plus a fixed mark-up. The work involves compliance with specific gravity, cetane, sulfur content, and additive requirements; tank monitoring and inventory management; and emergency delivery protocols during hurricanes or critical operational disruptions. Issuing bodies include municipal harbors and marinas, county fleet operations, and special-purpose water agencies. Recent solicitations span both large consolidated fuel programs and single-facility marina contracts, with contract terms typically running three to four years and including renewal options at the jurisdiction's discretion.

State and local government marine fuel procurement concentrates in Florida and California. The City of Daytona Beach posted ITB 2634 on June 18, 2026, for gasoline and diesel delivery to Halifax Harbor Marina with bids due July 23, 2026, establishing historical volumes of approximately 110,000 gallons of gasoline and 125,000 gallons of diesel annually at a single facility with 24-hour delivery and emergency 12-hour response requirements. Walton County, Florida issued ITB 26-17 on April 13, 2026, for gasoline and diesel across eight county fuel distribution sites with May 13, 2026 bid closing and pricing indexed to OPIS Pensacola rack average plus fixed bidder markup. The County of Ventura, California solicited RFP 6252 in May 2026 for county-wide gasoline and diesel supply to approximately 60 locations with historical annual consumption of 2.02 million gallons and historical spending of $4.6 million, with proposals due June 22, 2026 and award anticipated August 2026. All three solicitations require indexed pricing tied to regional rack averages, proof of financial stability and fuel-supply commitments, comprehensive insurance including pollution liability and commercial auto coverage, and business continuity plans addressing emergency response and 24/7 contact protocols.
