UNSPSC 70171606: Water resource recovery services

UNSPSC 70171606 Water resource recovery services is a Commodity code that spans state and local procurement of water quality monitoring, testing, treatment systems maintenance, and infrastructure rehabilitation across publicly owned wastewater treatment facilities, water reclamation centers, and potable water systems. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers purchasing laboratory testing services, SCADA system upgrades, control panel fabrication and refurbishment, blower and disinfection system parts and maintenance, pump station upgrades, force main rehabilitation, production well construction, and specialized consulting for water loss control programs and environmental services during facility upgrades. Issuing bodies include cities (Santa Cruz, Palm Bay, Casselberry, Fort Worth, Dallas, Atlanta, Sarasota), counties (Orange, Sarasota, Clackamas, Sacramento, Broward, Hillsborough, DeKalb, Athens-Clarke, Santa Clara, Galveston), state departments (Illinois Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Georgia Environmental Finance Authority), and specialized districts (Clackamas Water Environment Services, Fort Valley Utility Commission). Multiple solicitations under this code originate from water treatment and wastewater reclamation facility operators seeking ongoing maintenance and capital improvement services, with repeat activity from Florida municipalities and Georgia jurisdictions.

Geographic concentration appears heaviest in California, Florida, Georgia, and Oregon, with secondary activity across Texas, Illinois, Arizona, and the Pacific Northwest.
