UNSPSC 77131702: Toxic substances rehabilitation services

UNSPSC 77131702 Toxic substances rehabilitation services, a Commodity code, encompasses hazardous waste collection, treatment, transportation, and disposal services that state and local governments procure to manage industrial contamination, environmental remediation sites, household hazardous waste, and regulated materials including pesticides, pharmaceuticals, biohazards, petroleum products, and asbestos. State and local issuing bodies soliciting under this code include state environmental protection departments and commissions, counties, cities, special districts, water authorities, transit agencies, colleges and universities, and fire and emergency services departments.

Texas dominates recent activity, with the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ), Texas Department of Agriculture, Texas Facilities Commission, and Texas General Land Office each posting multiple opportunities; Georgia follows with state environmental protection, county governments, and regional councils issuing competitive procurements; Florida counties including Collier, Marion, Pasco, and Volusia show sustained demand; and activity also appears in Oregon, Nevada, Connecticut, Georgia, Kentucky, Illinois, and Arizona.
