NIGP 75049: Dynamite and Supplies: Caps, Fuses, Powder, Stick, and Wire

NIGP 75049 Dynamite and Supplies: Caps, Fuses, Powder, Stick, and Wire is an Item code that covers explosives and detonation products used in construction, demolition, and infrastructure work by state and local governments. Based on recent solicitations, state and local buyers under this code primarily procure explosives and related detonation supplies for infrastructure rehabilitation, pavement work, structural repairs, and utility projects. Issuing bodies include county sanitation districts, county transportation departments, and other public works agencies responsible for sewer infrastructure, roadway rehabilitation, and related heavy construction activities.

Recent activity shows Santa Clara County and its subordinate agencies as active buyers. Two representative opportunities posted in 2026 illustrate the scope: Sanitation District No. 2-3's Structural Defect Repair Project Phase 2 (ITB ITBRDAFY270088, due September 17, 2026) involved sewer mainline point repairs, pipe-burst replacements, and mainline extensions in the unincorporated eastern foothills, requiring completion in sixty-five working days; Santa Clara County's Central Expressway Pavement Rehabilitation Project Between Bowers Avenue and Scott Boulevard (ITB ITBRDAFY260694, due May 21, 2026) encompassed pavement rehabilitation, curb and gutter installation, ADA improvements, and traffic signal modifications with a 142 working-day completion timeline. Both solicitations were issued as ITBs with physical bid submission to the County Clerk of the Board of Supervisors in San Jose, California. Activity is concentrated in California, specifically Santa Clara County and the Bay Area region, based on the recent opportunities available.
