NIGP 54514: Contaminated Soil Treatment Equipment

NIGP 54514 Contaminated Soil Treatment Equipment, an Item code, encompasses erosion control and soil stabilization services that state and local governments deploy at landfills, transfer stations, and similar waste facilities to prevent slope degradation and establish vegetation on disturbed soil. Recent solicitations show the work involves hydroseeding applications using seed mixes and soil additives to stabilize un-vegetated or poorly vegetated slopes on an annual basis, typically ahead of wet seasons. Issuing bodies under this code include county waste management and recycling departments, which manage multiple facilities and seek qualified contractors capable of handling large acreage across distributed sites. Sacramento County's Department of Waste Management and Recycling represents the type of repeat buyer operating this category of work at scale—in their case across the Kiefer Landfill, Elk Grove Landfill, South Area Transfer Station, and North Area Recovery Station.

Sacramento County, California represents the primary recent geographic activity identified. The County issued RFB #2026RFB0049 for Erosion Control Services with a response deadline of June 11, 2026, requiring contractors to hydrospeed approximately 49 acres of mixed seed and compost applications across four facilities annually. The solicitation emphasizes insurance requirements ($2 million general liability per occurrence), prevailing wage compliance under California Labor Code, and a 12-month initial contract term with four optional one-year extensions. Sacramento County offers a 5% local business preference and a 2% micro-business preference for State-certified contractors meeting size and location criteria. Contractors must maintain a 90-day warranty on services and complete work within 30 days of request, with payment on NET/30 terms. Award will be made to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder based on greatest value to the County, with no specific budget disclosed in the procurement documents.
