NIGP 92577: Pollution Control Engineering

NIGP 92577 Pollution Control Engineering is an Item code covering comprehensive environmental remedial investigation, design, and engineering services for contaminated site assessment, remediation planning, and environmental compliance documentation that state and local governments procure to address contamination, regulatory violations, and facility improvements tied to environmental conditions. Recent solicitations reflect two primary work streams: remedial investigation and remediation design services for contaminated sites under state environmental regulations, and engineering design and construction administration for infrastructure projects incorporating environmental permitting, drainage evaluation, and sustainability compliance. State and local governments issuing under this code span state environmental protection departments, county governments, cities, and airport authorities. The New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection and Georgia Department of Transportation appear as active repeat buyers. Most visible recent opportunities include the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection's request for quotes on contract T2621 for Remedial Investigation and Design Services (RFQ 26DPP01289, quotes due November 20, 2026), requiring Licensed Site Remediation Professionals and comprehensive health and safety and quality assurance protocols, and the City of Santa Fe's RFP for Architect and Engineering Services for airport facilities improvements (RFP FY26RFP037, due February 20, 2026), which encompasses design phases for rental car parking and drainage infrastructure expansion.

Geographic concentration is strongest in the Southeast, particularly Georgia and New Mexico. Georgia Department of Transportation, Chatham County, the City of Griffin, and Madison County have posted multiple design and engineering solicitations for transportation, water infrastructure, and building projects incorporating environmental assessment components. New Mexico activity centers on Santa Fe Regional Airport terminal and facilities expansions under FAA and state appropriations. The New Jersey NJDEP procurement signals active remedial investigation contracting in that state. Evaluation criteria across recent opportunities emphasize technical qualifications—professional engineering licensure, prior experience with contaminated site remediation or environmental permitting, federal and state grant administration experience, and demonstrated capacity on similar-scale projects. Insurance requirements typically include professional liability coverage ranging from $1 million to $2 million per claim. DBE, MBE, and WBE participation goals appear in several solicitations, particularly those involving federal funding through FAA, CDBG, and ARC programs.
