UNSPSC 71122504: Water or gas control testing services

Services to test the effectiveness of the water or gas control method.

UNSPSC 71122504 Water or gas control testing services, a Commodity code, encompasses well and pump system testing, maintenance, repair, and abandonment work procured directly by state environmental agencies, county utilities departments, municipal water systems, special districts, and state fish and wildlife authorities. State and local governments buy under this code to address aging well infrastructure, orphaned oil and gas well remediation, wastewater pump station rehabilitation, irrigation system improvements, and aquifer storage and recovery projects. The work spans mechanical well rehabilitation, pump removal and reinstallation, chemical treatment, video logging, pressure testing, bacteriological sampling, site restoration, and comprehensive system commissioning. Issuing bodies include state departments of environment and natural resources (Michigan EGLE, Mississippi Oil and Gas Board, Texas General Land Office, Illinois DNR), county utilities and public works divisions (Hillsborough County, Marion County, Collier County, San Bernardino County), municipal water departments and utilities (Lubbock, Bend, Santa Cruz, Palm Bay, Watertown), transit and special districts (Eastern Municipal Water District, Seminole County, Sarasota County), and independent authorities managing orphaned well remediation programs under federal Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act funding.

Recent activity concentrates in Michigan, Florida, Mississippi, California, and Texas, with Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy issuing four direct solicitations in July 2026 for orphan well plugging across Gratiot and Montcalm counties (totaling 38 wells under DS 260000000032-035, responses due July 21, 2026, IFB format), requiring prequalification through prior RFPs and Davis-Bacon prevailing wage compliance. Seminole County (Florida) issued an Invitation for Bid for wastewater pump station maintenance and repair under CC-7100-26 with responses due August 5, 2026, requiring eight prior municipal pump station projects and 51 percent self-performance. San Bernardino County Department of Public Works is establishing an on-call well and pump maintenance contract (SPD126SPDAD6431, due August 31, 2026) with a five-year ceiling of $2.8 million across 32 wells and 28 booster pump locations. Hillsborough County (Florida) ITB-26-00234 for water well maintenance across 67 irrigation and potable wells (June 12, 2026 close, $688,073.00 estimated value, two-year term) and Sarasota County single-well abandonment (2026QQ759, due July 10, 2026, $50,000 ceiling) represent smaller municipal procurements. Orphaned well plugging solicitations from the Mississippi Oil and Gas Board (three separate IFBs in March–April 2026), Illinois DNR (Union County supplemental well, July 2026), and Texas RFQ for H2S well services (May 2026) reflect federal funding momentum from the Orphaned Wells Program. Water treatment plant design services—City of Lubbock RFQ 26-19719-KM (due July 2, 2026) for Lake 7 Supply Project engineering, and City of Santa Cruz RFP for Beltz 9 aquifer storage and recovery conversion (proposal deadline February 4, 2026)—indicate planning-phase procurement alongside construction services. Eastern Municipal Water District (California) RFP #3931 for well maintenance (April 23, 2026 close, five-year contract, minimum two awards) and EMWD RFP for digester gas utilization design-build-finance-operate project (April 13, 2026 close, 15–20 year term, $20 million performance bond estimate) signal larger infrastructure transformation contracts. Geographic concentration in Florida (Seminole, Sarasota, Hillsborough, Marion, Collier, Palm Bay) reflects aging potable and irrigation well portfolios; Michigan and Mississippi orphaned well programs reflect state and federal environmental remediation priorities; and California procurement indicates integrated water-recycling and energy-recovery infrastructure advancement. The code shows sustained activity across diverse jurisdiction scales and funding sources (state environmental budgets, federal IIJA orphaned well grants, local utility operations, special districts), with response deadlines clustering in July–August 2026 and indicating near-term execution opportunity for contractors holding necessary licensing, prequalification status, prevailing wage compliance, and bonding capacity.
