NIGP 89065: Sewage and Waste Treating Equipment and Supplies

NIGP 89065 Sewage and Waste Treating Equipment and Supplies, an Item code, covers replacement parts, rehabilitation services, and equipment for wastewater and water reclamation facilities—including drive shafts for treatment machinery, submersible pumps and control panels for lift stations, gravity belt thickener presses, secondary clarifiers, biosolids equipment, polymer blending units, hose pumps, chemical blend tanks, force mains, and odor-control systems. State and local water and wastewater authorities issue the bulk of solicitations under this code: city water departments and departments of watershed management, county utility authorities, regional water reclamation districts, and special-purpose sanitation districts. Recent activity shows a steady flow of equipment replacement, facility rehabilitation, and infrastructure upgrades across municipal and county systems, with several repeat buyers including Collier County (multiple blend tank and water treatment projects), Atlanta Department of Watershed Management, and various Florida municipalities.

Geographic concentration spans Florida, Georgia, California, Texas, Maryland, Michigan, and South Carolina, with Florida and Georgia showing the heaviest recent activity. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Holly Hill, Florida's sole-source procurement of a WesTech drive shaft unit for softener #2 at its Water Treatment Plant (notice SS202001, $113,067 total); the City of Sanford, Florida's IFB 24/25-31R for rehabilitation of gravity belt thickener and belt filter press equipment at two wastewater facilities (with pre-bid on February 4, 2026, and sealed bids due February 26, 2026); the Macon Water Authority's sealed-bid IFB for rebuild of gravity thickeners 1, 2, and 3 and clarifier #6 at Rocky Creek WRF (bids due October 20, 2026, with mandatory pre-bid on October 6, 2026); Collier County's sealed-bid construction of lime softening improvements and a blend tank at South County Regional Water Treatment Plant ($4.27 million, bids due September 21, 2026); and the Great Lakes Water Authority's RFP for study, design, and construction assistance at three combined sewer overflow facilities in the Detroit area (proposals due July 7, 2026). Davis-Bacon prevailing wage, E-Verify, DBE encouragement, and federal Section 3 hiring requirements apply to numerous CDBG-funded and federal-aid projects in this category.
