- Description
- RFQ AG-3604-S-10-0024 Attachment I-Shipping Schedule The USDA Forest Service intends to award one firm, fixed price contract for the purchase of a quantity of seven (7) each of Belfort Instrument’s AEPG1000 Precipitation Gauge and Accessories on a brand name or equal basis. Complete details of the items required can be found in the attached solicitation document AG-3604-S-10-0024. This procurement is on a brand name or equal basis. The Forest Service presently supports intensive climate and carbon cycle research at more than a dozen sites where ecological and meteorological measurements are taken from towers extending above the forest canopy. Infrastructure and research studies at these sites can be augmented in several ways to substantially and quickly increase understanding of climate-carbon interactions. One way is through upgrading the precision and accuracy of basic long term climate measurements, of which precipitation is one, to the level of NOAA’s US Climate Research Network (USCRN). This upgrade will provide the detailed information to characterize climate change at these sites and will contribute towards identifying climate change across the US. This will involve close partnership with NOAA. The precipitation measurement instruments used must match exactly to what is used by the NOAA USCRN. The Forest Service intends to share data with that network and the Belfort gauges are the latest required precipitation gauges from NOAA. This requirement is now posted as a joint synopsis/solicitation to www.fbo.gov as of May 5, 2010. Those contractors not downloading the solicitation from this website shall e-mail mparlett@fs.fed.us for a copy. All questions on this requirement are to be in writing and e-mailed to mparlett@fs.fed.us at least 2 days prior to the due date. Proposals will be due on May 14, 2010 no later than 3:00 pm EDT.
