- Description
- Point of Contact: Joseph McHugh,703-648-7309/Contracting Officer. The U.S. Geological Survey currently has a DS-3 (45 Mbit/sec) data circuit connecting Sioux Falls, SD to Downers Grove,Il. The USGS has a requirement to extend this circuit from Downers Grove, Il to the Ameritech Network Access Point (NAP) in Chicago, Il, a distance of twenty (20) miles. The NAP is the primary connection point in the mid-continent region for high-speed access to the internet. The additional data line will connect the three major new generation internet exchange locations for the exchange of traffic between the USGS and Federal high-performance networks, and to domestic research and education networks as well as international research and educational networks. The existing DS-3 data circuit is owned by MCI - WorldCom. Therefore, the USGS intends to negotiate a non-competitive contract with MCI -WorldCom to lease a data circuit line from Downers Grove, Il to Chicago, Il. All firms who believe that they are capable of providing this data circuit should submit a written response by March 4,2002. The written response must contain information which demonstrates the capabilities to provide the required data circuit. See Numbered Note 22.*****
