NIGP 75054: Ice Control Aggregate (see Class 775 for Salt)

NIGP 75054 Ice Control Aggregate, an Item code, encompasses the supply of processed stone and mineral materials—including riprap, drain gravel, crusher-processed aggregates, and lightweight aggregates such as haydite—that state and local governments deploy for road base, erosion control, stormwater management, landfill operations, and ice-melt applications. Recent solicitations show jurisdictions procuring aggregate materials ranging from several hundred tons for site-specific projects to multi-thousand-ton supply contracts, often structured as unit-price agreements or indefinite-quantity arrangements with periodic delivery calls. Issuing bodies span state departments of transportation (particularly Missouri DOT districts), county public works and sanitation departments, municipal public works offices, county parks departments, water districts, and specialized agencies such as flood control authorities. Missouri DOT has posted multiple aggregates solicitations across its Southwest, Central, Northwest, and Kansas City districts since May 2026. County-level repeat buyers include Jackson County (Missouri), Ada County (Idaho), Orange County (California), and Santa Clara County (California), along with municipalities including the City of St. George (Utah), City of Detroit, City of Salem (Massachusetts), and Town of Lexington (Massachusetts). This code also captures specialized applications: the City of St. George requested crushing and processing of on-site rubble into road-base material (IFB 26-306, due October 19, 2026); Salt Lake County solicited riprap and rockfill for erosion-control gabion baskets (RFC dated August 25, 2026); and Boulder County Parks sought multi-year pricing for landscaping aggregates and erosion control supplies (SOQ28626, due May 27, 2026).

The code sees consistent activity across the Midwest, Mountain West, and coastal regions. Missouri accounts for the highest recent-solicitation volume, with MoDOT procurement across six districts issuing IFBs for haydite, manufactured sand, and general aggregates between May and August 2026, many encouraging MBE and WBE participation and offering 10% domestic-content price preferences under the Buy American Act. Utah, California, Idaho, and Massachusetts also show regular activity. Bergen County, New Jersey posted separate solicitations for stone products (catalog contract, BC-BID-26-33, due September 2, 2026) and deicing fluid products (BC-BID-26-32, re-bid due September 10, 2026), illustrating how some jurisdictions separate mineral aggregates from chemically derived ice-control materials. Representative opportunities include the Missouri Department of Transportation Kansas City District's request for approximately 10,050 tons of surfacing, base construction, and snow-and-ice-control aggregates across 14 line items (IFB ITBRDAFY260694, due July 31, 2026, awarded line-item-by-line-item on low bid); Jackson County, Missouri's 24-month supply contract for aggregate sand (IFB 26067, due November 3, 2026); and Orange County, California's three-year per-ton delivery contract for six material types to 31 park locations, with 5% to 8% local-small-business and DVBE preference deductions in effect (IFB 0123137805EB, due November 2, 2026). Liquated-damages provisions of $250 per day for late delivery are common across state DOT contracts, and most require firm pricing for 60 to 90 days with no increases permitted in year one unless documented cost justification accompanies 60 days' advance notice.
