NIGP 92694: Water Pollution Services

NIGP 92694 Water Pollution Services, an Item code, encompasses groundwater and soil monitoring, stormwater inspection and maintenance, laboratory testing of drinking water and wastewater samples, water main upgrades, alum sludge removal, freshwater mussel surveys, and aquatic species relocation work. State and local governments procure these services to comply with federal water quality mandates (Clean Water Act, Safe Drinking Water Act), address contamination at public facilities, and support environmental permitting and monitoring requirements. The issuing bodies include state environmental and transportation departments (California Military Department, California Department of Toxic Substances Control, Nevada Department of Environmental Protection), county and municipal utilities (Orange County, Seminole County, Salt Lake County, Garland City), independent school districts (Northside Independent School District), water treatment facilities, state hospitals, and regional authorities (Brazos River Authority, Maryland Environmental Service). Recent activity shows repeat buyers in California (Caltrans districts, state departments) and regional concentration in the Southwest and coastal states.

Recent opportunities span laboratory testing, field sampling, and infrastructure rehabilitation. The California Military Department issued an IFB for groundwater and soil vapor gas monitoring and reporting at Stockton Field (response due July 29, 2026) under a Small Business Preference requiring 25 percent small business subcontracting. The County of Orange, operating John Wayne Airport, solicited stormwater treatment unit inspection and maintenance through an IFB (bid closing June 24, 2026) with 5 percent OCLSB and DVBE evaluation preference and a three-year firm fixed-fee contract. The City of Meriden, Connecticut, issued an ITB for comprehensive laboratory testing services including aquatic toxicity and sludge analysis (bids due May 28, 2026) with a two-year term and Connecticut prevailing wage requirements. The Nevada State Purchasing Division solicited WIIN water testing in schools and daycares statewide (proposals due July 8, 2026, $528,535 estimated value) with evaluation weighted toward demonstrated experience (40 percent) and technical approach (20 percent). Geographic concentration in recent awards spans California, Connecticut, Georgia, Maryland, Texas, Nevada, and Florida, with persistent activity across municipal water utilities and state environmental compliance programs.
