NIGP 92856: Oil Collection Services, Waste

NIGP 92856 Oil Collection Services, Waste is an Item code that encompasses the collection, transportation, characterization, and disposal or recycling of used motor oil, hydraulic fluids, transmission fluids, antifreeze, oil-contaminated sludge, waste fuels, and related petroleum byproducts generated by state and local government fleet operations, maintenance facilities, and utilities. State and local buyers under this code include school districts, county and city departments of public works, transit authorities, county governments, military installations, and electric utilities. Representative recent solicitations show school districts procuring grease trap waste and septic waste processing (Volusia County Schools, Marion County Schools in Florida), a city seeking oil and hazardous waste collection and emergency response services (City of Atlanta, Department of Public Works), a transit authority requesting environmental services including spill prevention and response (Charlotte Area Transit System), and a military department soliciting statewide special waste removal covering oil water separators and used oil at multiple sites (Texas Military Department). A county environmental program and a public utility have also posted recent opportunities for used oil and filter recycling collection services (Waukesha County, Wisconsin and Lubbock Power & Light, Texas).

Geographic activity concentrates in Florida (multiple school district opportunities in Volusia, Marion, and Hillsborough counties), Texas (military and utility opportunities), and North Carolina and Georgia (transit and city department of public works opportunities), with additional Wisconsin activity.
