UNSPSC 77131502: Oil spillage control services

UNSPSC 77131502 Oil spillage control services is a Commodity code that encompasses emergency and non-emergency response, cleanup, and restoration services for hazardous and non-hazardous oil and chemical spills. The work being solicited under this code includes 24-hour spill response, site remediation to regulatory compliance, and personnel and equipment mobilization. State and local governments buying under this code range from city energy utilities and environmental quality commissions to county jurisdictions, with the City of Austin, Texas appearing as a recent active buyer.

The code shows recent activity primarily in Texas and California. The City of Austin issued RFP 1100 DCM3046 in April 2026 for emergency and non-emergency spill response cleanup and restoration across the Austin Energy service area covering Travis County and substations in surrounding counties, with proposals due May 28, 2026; the scope includes three service categories (PCB-containing spills, non-hazardous spills under 50 ppm PCBs, and industrial remedial support), requires OSHA HAZWOPER 40-hour certification and minimum two years of documented spill response experience, and mandates $22.05 per hour living wage, comprehensive insurance including $1 million environmental impairment/pollution liability, and M/WBE program participation where applicable. The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality posted solicitation 582-26-00333-2 in July 2026 for the Texas Voluntary Marginal Conventional Well Plugging Program and Methane Emissions Reductions Program, with proposals due August 31, 2026, though the specific scope details were not disclosed in available documentation. Two additional recent opportunities in the block (Union City, Georgia building plan review and Santa Clara County bridge replacement) appear to be misclassified under this code and do not reflect oil spill response work.
