NIGP 82065: Flue Gas Desulfurization System Equipment

NIGP 82065 Flue Gas Desulfurization System Equipment, an Item code, encompasses EPA-certified refrigerant extraction and gas removal services that state and local governments procure to manage environmental compliance at municipal facilities. The recent activity under this code reflects municipal environmental and sustainability operations rather than traditional equipment procurement — specifically, extraction of refrigerant gases from collected appliances and HVAC units, with documentation of gas destruction or recycling to meet EPA regulations. Issuing bodies soliciting under the code include city environmental divisions managing sustainability campuses and similar municipal infrastructure.

The City of Tucson Environmental and General Services Division (EGSD) posted RFP No. 240011 for Gas Extraction and Removal services at the Los Reales Sustainability Campus, due September 19, 2024, seeking an EPA-certified refrigerant reclaimer capable of extracting gases from approximately 50 units per week with a minimum extraction frequency of every two weeks. The contract includes a one-year initial term with up to four additional one-year renewal options, comprehensive pricing line items for removing Freon, mixed gas, and refrigerant at varying labor rates for standard and after-hours work, and DBE participation provisions tied to Federal Transit Administration terms and conditions. Arizona (Pima County/City of Tucson) represents the documented recent activity under this code.
