NIGP 83070: Steel Tanks, Surface and Underground Type (for Gasoline, Kerosene, etc.)

NIGP 83070 Steel Tanks, Surface And Underground Type (For Gasoline, Kerosene, Etc.), Item code, encompasses removal, replacement, inspection, and repair of fuel storage tank systems at state and local facilities. State and local governments are actively soliciting services to upgrade aging underground and aboveground storage tanks, inspect and maintain existing systems for environmental compliance, and remove decommissioned tanks with proper closure documentation and hazardous-waste handling. Work includes tank removal and disposal, installation of new double-walled tanks with monitoring and dispensing systems, preventive maintenance, repair execution, site restoration, and formal closure assessments. Issuing bodies include state agencies—particularly state departments of general services managing facility networks—counties, cities, and special-purpose districts. California's Department of General Services and Department of Natural Resources appear as repeat buyers, soliciting tank inspection, repair, and replacement work across multiple facilities and geographic regions.
