- Description
- Contract Number: R13PC30234 TAS: 14 0680 This J&A is also available for viewing at www.usbr.gov/mso/aamd/doing-business-acquisitions-noncompetitive.html FAR 6.302-1 - Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. The University of Arizona (U of A) is the sole operator and administrator of the Arizona Meteorological Network (AZMET system. There are no other entities that can provide the necessary operation and maintenance of the weather stations and associated data delivery to meet Reclamation requirements. Additionally, there are no other weather station networks in the State of Arizona that could provide the equivalent information. Additionally, AZMET personnel possess the expertise, knowledge, experience, and access to data required to calculate the Standardized Reference Evapotranspiration values required by Reclamation for the Water Accounting and Verification program. The values produced by AZMET also carry the weight, confidence, and integrity of the AZMET program and the University of Arizona. Consequently, the University of Arizona is the only viable source for this contracted effort. In addition, Reclamation does not incur any capital expenditures for purchase and installation of the weather station network, and Reclamation is only required to provide partial funding for the operation and maintenance of these weather stations. Other entities as well as U of A provide funding and in-kind services.
