NIGP 54576: Soil Measuring Equipment (Not Otherwise Classified)

NIGP Item 54576, Soil Measuring Equipment (Not Otherwise Classified), encompasses erosion control and landfill cover material services that state and local governments procure to stabilize soil and manage waste management facility operations. Recent solicitations under this code show counties and cities purchasing hydroseeding applications for erosion control on landfill slopes, landfill cover materials, and related soil stabilization work. Issuing bodies soliciting under the code include county waste management departments and city solid waste divisions, with Sacramento County's Department of Waste Management and Recycling and the City of Savannah's Procurement and Contracts Division appearing in the recent record. Work scope focuses on erosion control through seed application (hydroseeding methodology across multiple acreage zones including erosion control mix, native mix, and compost), annual maintenance prior to wet seasons, and cover material procurement for landfill operations.
