NIGP 65951: Lining, Pipe (Cement, Epoxy, etc.)

NIGP 65951 Lining, Pipe (Cement, Epoxy, Etc.), an Item code, encompasses the supply and installation of pipe lining materials and services used by state and local governments to rehabilitate deteriorating water, sewer, and stormwater infrastructure without excavation. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers purchasing portland cement for transportation and utilities work, cured-in-place pipe (CIPP) and spincast lining for sanitary and stormwater systems, epoxy and mortar linings for steel pipe rehabilitation, and on-call prequalification contracts for trenchless pipe rehabilitation services. Issuing bodies include municipal departments of transportation and public works (Charlotte, Phoenix, Orlando, Palm Bay, Alpharetta), county water and sewer commissions (Brunswick-Glynn County Joint Water and Sewer Commission in Georgia), city utilities departments (Long Beach Public Utilities, Thomasville), and special-purpose sanitation districts (Santa Clara County Sanitation District No. 2-3). Water and sewer utilities and transportation departments dominate the buyer mix, with cities and counties in Georgia and Florida posting the highest recent activity.

Representative recent opportunities include the City of Charlotte's October 2026 IFB for portland cement supporting the Department of Transportation's Street Maintenance Division (response due November 3, 2026), the Brunswick-Glynn County Joint Water and Sewer Commission's October 2026 ITB for CIPP rehabilitation of 26,115 linear feet of 8-inch sewer main and subordinate pipe sizes in Basins 4001 and 4013 (bids due November 10, 2026), the City of Johns Creek's June 2026 RFP for on-call storm pipe lining services offering unit pricing for CIPP and spincast work on pipes 12 to 72 inches in diameter with a three-year initial term and four optional one-year renewals (proposals due July 7, 2026), and the City of Alpharetta's April 2026 RFP for on-call pipe lining across 12- to 120-inch storm drainage pipes with anticipated awards to up to two contractors—one for CIPP and one for spincast—covering over 500 identified repair pipes (proposals due May 28, 2026). Long Beach, Orlando, and Lavonia have posted multiple water reclamation and treatment facility rehabilitation projects incorporating pipe lining and epoxy coating work. Georgia cities and the Atlanta metro region show sustained on-call and project-specific demand; Florida utilities in the Orlando and Melbourne areas are active across multiple facilities. Activity spans primarily Georgia, Florida, California, and Arizona jurisdictions, with recent solicitations weighted toward the second and third quarters of 2026.
