UNSPSC 71122800: Well monitoring services

Services to check quality or conditions of a well.

UNSPSC 71122800 Well monitoring services is a Class code that encompasses drilling, installation, maintenance, repair, and abandonment of water supply wells, monitoring wells, and related groundwater infrastructure for state and local government agencies. State and local governments procure this work under the code for potable water systems, irrigation facilities, landfill and environmental monitoring, wastewater pump stations, industrial water supplies, and emergency response. Recent solicitations show municipal water departments, county utilities, state environmental agencies, state parks, water districts, and county environmental facilities issuing the vast majority of opportunities, with repeat buyers including Michigan's Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE), which manages multiple orphaned oil and gas well plugging programs, and county-level utilities departments in Florida, Georgia, Illinois, and Mississippi managing routine municipal water infrastructure.

The geographic spread of recent activity spans Michigan (particularly the Lower Peninsula for orphan well plugging), Florida (water well maintenance, repair, and monitoring well installation), Georgia (municipal well construction and rehabilitation), Mississippi (new water wells and orphaned well plugging under federal funding), Illinois (supplemental irrigation well installation and well casing repair), Colorado (stock water well drilling and solar pump installation), Texas (water treatment plant and utility system improvements), and Oregon (state park water supply wells). Representative recent opportunities include the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy soliciting proposals from prequalified contractors for plugging and site restoration of nine orphan gas storage wells in Gratiot County (Direct Solicitation DS 260000000035, proposals due July 21, 2026); the City of Albany, Georgia requesting sealed bids for Well No. 21 rehabilitation under competitive bid (response date November 16, 2026); Hillsborough County, Florida issuing an ITB for water well maintenance and repair services across 67 irrigation and potable water wells at county parks (ITB 26-00234, bids due June 12, 2026); and the Illinois Department of Corrections requesting color video surveys and well casing repair quotes at Sheridan Correctional Center (multiple small-business and open competitive quotes issued August through September 2026). Opportunities range from routine maintenance contracts to complex federally funded orphan well abandonment projects subject to Davis-Bacon prevailing wage requirements and Build America, Buy America Act compliance.
