NIGP 69027: Ash Handling Removal Systems

NIGP 69027 Ash Handling Removal Systems is an Item code under which state and local governments procure debris removal and environmental remediation services — including disaster-debris management, transport, processing, and lawful disposal following natural or man-made emergencies. The scope encompasses temporary site operations, hazardous-debris handling, volume reduction, and equipment mobilization to manage large-scale debris operations. Issuing bodies include county departments of public works and environmental services as well as municipal recreation and facility departments; Fairfax County, Virginia, Department of Public Works and Environmental Services is a recent active buyer in this space, soliciting contingency debris-removal capacity at the regional scale.

Fairfax County, Virginia, is the dominant recent issuer under this code. The most representative current opportunity is Fairfax County's RFP 2000004271 for Debris Removal Services, posted February 13, 2026, with proposals due March 13, 2026, establishing one or more five-year contingency contracts to remove and dispose of disaster-generated debris across the county's 395 square-mile region following hurricanes, severe storms, and emergency events. The solicitation specifies capacity requirements of 3.0 million cubic yards within 60 days and complete disposal within 90 days for a Category 2 hurricane scenario, with pricing structured as firm-fixed for the first year and CPI-U adjustments thereafter. Contractors must supply hauling vehicles, self-loading grapple trucks, dump trucks with minimum 10-cubic-meter capacity, wheel loaders, air curtain incinerators, and dedicated operational personnel including OSHA-trained Safety and Environmental Compliance Officers. A second opportunity, DeKalb County ITB 2026-076-ITB for Reconstruction of DeKalb Tennis Center (due July 13, 2026), involves IT and Low Voltage Infrastructure installation as part of facility reconstruction but does not align closely with the core disaster-debris and ash-handling scope. Activity under this code is geographically concentrated in the Southeast and appears limited to post-disaster or emergency-response contexts.
