NIGP 89048: Oil Skimming Equipment and Parts

NIGP 89048 Oil Skimming Equipment and Parts is an Item code covering replacement drive shafts, thickener mechanisms, clarifier components, and associated water treatment infrastructure—the mechanical and electromechanical systems that municipal water and wastewater treatment plants procure to maintain or rebuild core processing equipment. State and local water authorities and municipal utilities drive activity under this code, typically through sole-source acquisitions when replacement parts are manufacturer-specific or through sealed-bid construction contracts when rebuild scope spans multiple equipment units at a single facility. The City of Holly Hill, Florida and the Macon Water Authority (Georgia) represent the issuing body types: municipal utilities and regional water authorities procuring equipment replacement and facility upgrades through either sole-source notices or competitive sealed-bid processes.

Recent opportunities span Florida and Georgia. The City of Holly Hill issued a sole-source Notice of Intended Decision (Solicitation SS202001) for a WesTech DS43 Dual Shaft Drive replacement at its Water Treatment Plant, valued at $113,067.00 including turnkey installation, with a September 22, 2020 adoption date and WesTech Engineering, Inc. as the exclusive manufacturer. The Macon Water Authority released a sealed-bid Invitation to Bid (PE33561NONST2027000000073) for rebuild of gravity thickeners 1, 2, and 3 and clarifier #6 at Rocky Creek WRF, with bids due October 20, 2026, a mandatory pre-bid meeting on October 6, 2026, and a requirement that the general contractor self-perform a minimum of 51 percent of the work. Bid bonds at 10 percent of bid amount and full performance and payment bonds are required in Georgia; contract documents are available for $150.00 per set.
