UNSPSC 71101600: Mine drilling blasting and construction services

UNSPSC 71101600 Mine drilling blasting and construction services (Class) encompasses drilling, well installation, and related subsurface construction work that state and local governments solicit for environmental remediation, landfill operations, and utility system development. The Maryland Environmental Service's June 2026 drilling and installation of landfill gas extraction wells at the Harford Waste Disposal Center Landfill exemplifies the environmental compliance work bought under this code—six condensate drains, four caisson wells, and twelve gas extraction wells ranging 19 to 64 feet deep using specified HDPE piping and QED Environmental Systems wellhead assemblies, with a 5% MBE participation goal and $980 per-day liquidated damages for delays beyond 100 calendar days. The issuing-body mix spans state environmental agencies (Maryland Environmental Service), county governments (Broward County Highway Construction and Engineering Division for the Pine Island Road Capacity Expansion Project, which includes bulkhead and dredging work within the Central Broward Water Control District N-12 Canal), cities (City of Peoria, Arizona; City of Fort Worth; City of DeBary, Florida), and special-purpose districts. Repeat activity is limited; issuing bodies appear episodic rather than continuous.

Recent opportunities cluster in Arizona, Florida, Maryland, and Texas. The Broward County Pine Island Road Capacity Expansion Project (response due June 2, 2026) involves roadway widening from four to six lanes with associated bulkhead and dredging work, subject to a mandatory 30% County Business Enterprise participation goal and liquidated damages of $7,442 per day for failure to achieve substantial completion within 600 days. The Maryland Environmental Service drilling solicitation (response due June 26, 2026) requires bid bonds of 5% and contract execution within 30 days of award, with all work conforming to MDE Refuse Permit No. 2022-WMF-0570 and Harford County Department of Public Works standards. The code shows concrete recent activity in environmental and infrastructure projects involving subsurface work; however, the opportunity sample is small and geographically dispersed, suggesting episodic rather than sustained procurement volume across state and local jurisdictions.
