UNSPSC 77130000: Pollutants tracking and monitoring and rehabilitation services

UNSPSC 77130000 Pollutants tracking and monitoring and rehabilitation services is a Family code under which state and local governments procure environmental monitoring, sampling, testing, and analytical services to track contaminants in water, air, and materials, and to support remediation and compliance activities. Recent solicitations show heavy concentration in water quality and wastewater monitoring—sewer spill monitoring, laboratory analysis of drinking water and dialysis water, flow monitoring in collection systems, and pathogen testing—alongside indoor environmental assessments including asbestos, lead, mold, and air quality investigations. Issuing bodies span county water and sewer departments, school districts, municipalities, state agencies, housing authorities, transit authorities, and special-purpose districts. Forsyth County in Georgia appears as a repeat buyer, soliciting both emergency sewer spill monitoring and flow monitoring services within weeks of each other. Work ranges from emergency response sampling and analysis to long-term continuous monitoring programs, from laboratory services alone to field investigation and remediation design, and from single-site projects to statewide programs. Geographic activity concentrates in Florida, Georgia, Texas, and other southeastern and southwestern states, with notable recent activity in Michigan, Connecticut, Illinois, Colorado, and Nevada as well.

Representative recent opportunities include Forsyth County's ITQ for sewer spill monitoring, sampling, analysis, and reporting services (due November 12, 2026) supporting emergency response under Georgia Environmental Protection Division requirements; Santa Clara County's proposal for waterborne pathogen testing and environmental microbiology services (due October 22, 2026) requiring ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation and CDC ELITE participation for Legionella culture analysis; Hillsborough County Public Schools' ITB for water and wastewater laboratory services across 32 line items including compliance testing and sample courier service (bids due September 24, 2026); the City of Holly Hill's IFB for drainage and estuary monitoring equipment installation along LPGA Canal (due October 21, 2026); Fulton County's RFP for comprehensive water quality monitoring services (due October 27, 2026); and the Michigan Department of Technology, Management & Budget's statewide RFP for inspection, sampling, and laboratory analysis of lead, mold, asbestos, and air contaminants (due June 29, 2026, awarded to ATC Group Services LLC for $1.5 million). Opportunities reflect a mix of fixed-price unit-rate procurement (laboratory testing), time-and-materials task orders, and equipment-plus-services contracts. Set-asides and preferences appear inconsistently—some solicitations reference MBE, DBE, or small-business encouragement programs while others contain no such designations.
