UNSPSC 76131700: Oil spill cleanup

UNSPSC 76131700 Oil spill cleanup (Class) covers emergency response and restoration services for both hazardous and non-hazardous oil and chemical spills affecting water bodies, energy infrastructure, and industrial sites. State and local governments procure under this code comprehensive spill response including site remediation, equipment mobilization, personnel deployment meeting specialized certifications, and regulatory compliance work. The mix of issuing bodies includes municipal utilities and environmental agencies; the City of Austin, Texas issued a major RFP for emergency and non-emergency spill response across its energy service territory in Travis County and surrounding areas, while the California Department of Fish and Wildlife and State Department of Water Resources have posted hazardous materials and spill-related studies and removal services.

Recent activity concentrates in California and Texas. The City of Austin's RFP 1100 DCM3046 (due May 28, 2026, closed) sought qualified contractors for 24-hour emergency and non-emergency spill response with one-hour mobilization for hazardous incidents and eight-hour response for non-hazardous spills across three severity categories, requiring OSHA HAZWOPER 40-hour certification, two years of documented spill response experience, and comprehensive insurance including $1 million environmental impairment liability coverage; the contract structured as an indefinite quantity agreement with 24-month initial term and up to three optional renewals. The California Department of Fish and Wildlife issued RFP P2675002 (due March 6, 2026) for oil spill cost study services analyzing cleanup costs and damages from marine and inland spills with contract performance through June 30, 2027 and maximum value of $125,000. The State of California Department of Water Resources posted IFB 125686 for hazardous waste removal services (due April 8, 2026). The code shows limited activity overall; most recent opportunities reflect specialized environmental remediation and compliance work rather than high-volume spill cleanup contracting.
