UNSPSC 70171803: Flood protection or control services

UNSPSC 70171803 Flood protection or control services, a Commodity code, encompasses the design, engineering analysis, permitting support, and construction oversight of stormwater infrastructure, flood mitigation systems, and drainage improvements that state and local governments use to reduce flood risk and manage stormwater across communities. Recent state and local solicitations show cities and counties procuring preliminary and final design services for green stormwater infrastructure, detention and retention pond systems, drainwell replacement and flood mitigation, wetland restoration, stream channel improvements, and construction engineering and inspection for flood-related capital projects. The issuing bodies span city engineering departments (Orlando, Casselberry, Groton, Bend, Tallahassee, Stamford, Dallas, Statesboro, Perry, Greenville County), county transportation and stormwater divisions (Collier County, Sarasota County, Orange County, San Mateo County, Hillsborough County, Pasco County, Chatham County, Broward County), water and wastewater authorities (Little Miami WWTP in Hamilton County, Ohio; West Basin Municipal Water District in California), school districts (Drew Charter School in Atlanta), and special-purpose agencies (Brazos River Authority in Texas, Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife, Clackamas County Water Environment Services). Several jurisdictions have issued multiple recent procurements, particularly Collier County and the City of Orlando.

Geographic activity concentrates in Florida (Casselberry, Orlando, Tallahassee, Sarasota County, Collier County, Pasco County, Hillsborough County, Orange County), with significant secondary activity in Georgia (Statesboro, Perry, Drew Charter School, Chatham County, Columbus), the Pacific Northwest (Bend, Oregon; Clackamas County, Oregon; San Mateo County, California), Connecticut (Groton, Stamford), and Texas (Brazos River Authority, Dallas, Williamson County). Representative recent opportunities include the City of Groton, Connecticut RFP for design and permitting of green stormwater infrastructure in the Five Corners neighborhood with proposals due October 30, 2026; Collier County RPS 26-8702 for the NEUF Perimeter Fence, Irrigation, and Landscaping project with bids due October 8, 2026 and an anticipated budget of $3.4 million; the City of Bend, Oregon RFP for South Awbrey Butte Drainage Improvements design with a $1.5 million design budget and October 9, 2026 deadline; and the Brazos River Authority RFP for Hydrostatic Pressure Relief System assessment and downstream river channel improvements at Sterling C. Robertson Dam with qualifications due October 14, 2026. These opportunities are often funded through federal grant programs (FEMA HMGP, HUD CDBG-DR, EPA SWMM models, USDA rural programs) or state clean water revolving funds, reflecting the significant public investment in flood resilience and stormwater management infrastructure.
