NIGP 91108: C.i.p., Asbestos

NIGP 91108 C.i.p., Asbestos is an Item code under which state and local governments solicit services for removal, abatement, and disposal of asbestos-containing materials during building renovation, deconstruction, and demolition projects. Work encompasses identification, safe removal, and compliant disposal of asbestos in floor tile, pipe insulation, ceiling and wall texture, window caulk, cement panels, and fire doors, performed as part of larger capital projects or standalone remediation efforts. Issuing bodies include county governments, school districts, and municipal public works divisions. Contractors must hold state-specific licenses (where required), carry pollution liability and comprehensive general liability insurance, provide performance and payment bonds, and comply with EPA NESHAP regulations and local building codes. Recent opportunities show the code active across school district facility maintenance, county property disposition programs, and university capital projects.

Recent activity spans Texas, Georgia, and Colorado.
