Scope of Work: 1. INTRODUCTION - Avian RADAR is emerging technology that is being utilized by several military and civilian airports to reduce air strikes between birds and aircraft. During the past two years, NAS Kingsville has incorporated Avian RADAR technology into day-to-day operations. During these tests, procedures were established that would allow for real-time early warning of large birds, or large concentrations of birds in the terminal airspace immediately surrounding the airport. This information can then be relayed directly to pilots operating within that airspace, often times when they are in the most vulnerable stages of flight during take-offs and landings at low altitudes. Additionally, bird movement in and around the airport can be monitored for long term trends that would allow for modeling migratory patterns, bird movement as a result of weather, feeding patterns and roosting patterns. This data can then be used to provide optimal flight planning and scheduling during periods of increased bird density. This statement of work involves the lease and set-up of an avian RADAR system, its maintenance and upkeep and the data collection tools associated with the system for one year. 2. SCOPE - The scope of this effort will be to deliver and set up an Avian RADAR system that is capable of providing the following: a) The RADAR system must be able to provide coverage to the departure or arrival corridors for all four runways. This can be established as a single stationary system that can easily be reoriented when weather conditions dictate a runway change. b) System must provide 360 degree coverage out to 6nm. c) Both range and altitude discrimination is preferable; however altitude discrimination is essential in the departure and arrival corridor to an altitude of 2000ft or more. d) System must have backup diesel generator and fuel tank. e) System must be configured to accept external power. f) System must provide sufficient data storage to conduct monthly, quarterly and annual data evaluation by station Wildlife Biologist. g) System must include three monitors or displays to be located in the Operations office, Wing Duty office and BASH vehicle with wireless receive capability from the RADAR System. h) Operating procedure must be provided for both RADAR system, monitors and generator set. i) Vendor will work with station personnel and station Wildlife Biologist to establish initial operational parameters and system set up to include alarm thresholds for moderate and severe BASH conditions.(to be established during initial system set-up). j) System must be capable of providing both visual and audible alarms for condition changes. k) System should be capable of providing alarm sectors if requested. l) Vendor will provide training for users on system operation, minor system maintenance, monitor/display operation, and data extraction and evaluation. m) Vendor will provide a minimum of six site visits to evaluate system operation and conduct routine maintenance or conduct system groom.
