NIGP 91381: Maintenance and Repair, Sewer and Storm Drain (Including Removal)

NIGP 91381 Maintenance And Repair, Sewer And Storm Drain (Including Removal), an Item code, encompasses construction and rehabilitation services for stormwater drainage systems, sanitary sewer infrastructure, and lift stations that state and local governments solicit on a recurring basis—work ranging from small-scale site-specific drainage improvements to multi-year term contracts for emergency repair services and continuing professional engineering support. Recent state and local opportunities show cities, counties, and water authorities across Florida, South Carolina, Connecticut, Georgia, and California issuing competitive sealed bids and RFQs for stormwater structure rehabilitation (manhole relining, composite ring-and-lid replacement), drainage line installation and repair (gravity mains, force mains, culverts), lift station construction and refurbishment, retention pond and ditch maintenance, and sewer easement clearing. Issuing bodies include municipal public works departments (City of DeBary, City of Phoenix, City of Casselberry), county water and engineering departments (Hillsborough County Water Resources Department, Greenville County, Dorchester County), transit and special-purpose districts (Town of Waterford Utility Commission), and school districts (Pinellas County Schools). Set-aside programs appear frequently: the City of DeBary's Small Scale Stormwater projects (Bids 01-15, 06-18, 12-19, 01-20) each include 10 percent small and disadvantaged-business enterprise participation goals; Hillsborough County's low-pressure sewer system contract targets 5 percent SBE participation; and prevailing-wage or living-wage mandates are common on federally-assisted work.

Geographic activity concentrates heavily in Florida, where recent bids from DeBary, Casselberry, Oviedo, Ocala, St. Cloud, Leesburg, North Miami Beach, Long Beach, and Collier County show sustained investment in stormwater and sewer infrastructure. South Carolina (Greenville County, Dorchester County), Connecticut (Town of Waterford, Town of Berlin), and California (City of Thousand Oaks, Santa Clara County) also show active procurement. Representative recent opportunities include the City of DeBary's Small Scale Stormwater Improvement Project No. 2 (Bid 01-15, due April 29, 2015, IFB, estimated $869,400) involving excavation, swale reshaping, and de-silting across six locations; Hillsborough County Water Resources Department's Low Pressure Sewer System (LPSS) installations and repairs (IFB-26-00346, due November 17, 2026, estimated $4.41 million over two years with optional renewal); Hillsborough County Engineering's Kirby Street Pump Station 08 Rehabilitation (IFB-26-00404, due November 13, 2026, estimated $1,473,476.90, 10 percent SBE participation goal); the Town of Waterford Utility Commission's Cross Country Sewer Easement Access Phase 2 (IFB 26-013, due November 12, 2026, 25 percent small and minority-owned-business participation requirement); and Greenville County's Suffolk Drive Drainage Improvements (IFB 27023, due October 21, 2026, five-year-term indefinite-quantity contracts structured on unit pricing are also active, such as Paulding County Department of Transportation's FY 2027 Stormwater Infrastructure Replacement unit-price vehicle (due November 6, 2026). Performance bonds, bid security, and comprehensive liability insurance are standard requirements; completion windows typically run 60 to 210 calendar days, with liquidated damages ranging from $150 to $1,609 per day for delays.
