UNSPSC 77101706: Environmental law advisory services

UNSPSC 77101706 Environmental law advisory services is a Commodity code covering professional consulting in environmental compliance, regulatory interpretation, and permitting support that state and local governments procure to navigate multi-jurisdictional environmental statutes, coastal resilience mandates, air quality regulations, and brownfield inventories. The code encompasses both standalone environmental advisory work and services embedded in larger infrastructure or land-use planning projects. Recent solicitations show issuing bodies spanning municipalities (City of Casselberry, City of Santa Monica, City of New Haven), regional authorities (Utilities Commission of New Smyrna Beach, Urban Flood Safety & Water Quality District in Portland), counties (Santa Clara County, Orange County, Bernalillo County, Camden County, Tuolumne County), and special-purpose districts (Coastal Region Metropolitan Planning Organization). Work is being solicited under this code for stormwater and lakes management permitting (Casselberry), environmental review and adaptation planning for sea level rise (Santa Clara County, New Haven), water quality cleanup support (Orange County), brownfield site identification (Bernalillo County), and environmental permitting on-call services spanning wetland delineations, regulatory compliance, and permitting coordination (Portland's Urban Flood Safety & Water Quality District). The geographic spread spans Florida, California, Oregon, Connecticut, Georgia, New Mexico, and scattered activity in other states; California and Florida show the densest recent posting activity.

Representative recent opportunities include the City of Casselberry's SOQ for stormwater and lakes management projects (responses due February 5, 2019; notice of intent to award March 19, 2019, naming CPH Inc., Geosyntec Consultants, Vanasse Hangen Brustlin, and Wood Environment & Infrastructure Solutions on a five-year continuing contract with two optional one-year renewals); the Urban Flood Safety & Water Quality District's RFP for environmental permitting on-call services across North Portland, Gresham, Fairview, and Troutdale (proposals due October 30, 2026; anticipated shared budget of $500,000 over five years with potential three-year renewals; compensation on hourly rates with not-to-exceed project budgets); Santa Clara County's RFP for the Subregional Shoreline Adaptation Plan (proposals due November 6, 2026; scope includes sea level rise vulnerability assessments and community engagement across multiple jurisdictions); and Bernalillo County's RFP for EPA Brownfield Assessment Administration Services (proposals due October 27, 2026).
