The range shall be within a 35 mile radius of Newark International Airport (EWR). The range shall be indoors to allow for consistency in firearms qualifications and avoid weather related restrictions due to the range being open to the elements.

The range time must be available exclusively to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) during the hours indicated.

It shall have parking available on site for 20 vehicles at one time. A classroom to accommodate a minimum of 35 students will be available onsite. Additionally, the range will have a designated firearms cleaning area. DHS requires exclusive use of the range in 4-6 hour blocks per each training session. The range will be closed to the public during the hours that DHS uses the range. DHS will provide all ammunition, targets, and firearms instructors. DHS firearms instructors will act as safety officers and call all courses of fire on the range without oversight from range staff. The range shall possess adequate lighting in both public and work areas. The range shall be equipped with separate male and female indoor restroom facilities with running water located near the range facilities for DHS use. The range must possess a minimum of 12 firing points and must be able to accommodate a qualification course distance minimum of 1.5 yards and maximum of 25 yards.

The range rules will allow students to draw and fire from the holster. The range rules will not disallow a student from moving in front of the firing points with an instructor present, including conducting lateral movements between target points.
