NIGP 95966: Reservoir Maintenance and Management Services

NIGP 95966 Reservoir Maintenance and Management Services is an Item code encompassing construction, rehabilitation, and operational support for water storage and treatment facilities, including liner replacement, muck management, basin restoration, and related infrastructure work. State and local governments procure this work through capital improvement projects at water authorities, environmental agencies, and municipal utilities to maintain compliance, extend asset life, and improve operational capacity. Recent solicitations span earthfill dam construction, water filtration plant rehabilitation, mechanical lake bottom treatment, rapid infiltration basin liner replacement, and water storage tank construction, indicating substantial capital investment in aging infrastructure across multiple states.

Issuing bodies include state environmental and fish-wildlife agencies, municipal utilities and water districts, county governments, and regional special-purpose districts. The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission appears multiple times as a repeat buyer, soliciting modular housing and site infrastructure improvements at conservation properties. Geographically, recent activity clusters in Florida (mechanical muck management at Lake Miccosukee, multiple modular housing projects in Hendry County), Utah (Zone 5 North water storage reservoir pre-qualification, Graveyard Wash earthfill dam), and scattered municipal and county projects in Connecticut, Maryland, Georgia, California, Oregon, and Texas. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Meriden, Connecticut's IFB B027-11 (October 7, 2026 response deadline) for Merimere Water Filtration Plant liner and underdrain system rehabilitation, a $1.2 million-per-day facility with 120-day substantial completion deadline under Davis-Bacon prevailing wage; the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission's ITB 26/27-11 for Lake Miccosukee mechanical muck management (November 2, 2026 response deadline, $355,000 estimated budget, 1,168.60 acres across six work sites with mandatory October 8 pre-bid and site visit); and West Jordan City's RSOQ for the Zone 5 North 4.0 megagallon water storage reservoir (SOQs due September 3, 2026, pre-qualification gate with four contractors already advanced as of September 24). Federal funding via FEMA Hazard Mitigation Grants and the Environmental Protection Agency appears in multiple solicitations, triggering Davis-Bacon, Build America Buy America, and environmental compliance overlays.
