Description

(APHS), Cattle Fever Tick Eradication Program needs an annual service contract with a licensed and authorized BARD HVAC service representative who can provide semi-annual service inspections and maintenance for six HVAC units that support USDA’s Land Mobile Radio (LMR) system located along the South Texas border area. The Texas-Mexico International Border runs from El Paso to east of Brownsville, TX, and the Gulf of Mexico. The USDA Mounted Patrol Inspector (MPI) patrols a 639-mile section

of the border in Texas along the Rio Grande River from just north of Del Rio to Brownsville. The MPI is an integral part of the APHIS Veterinary Services Program as they provide the first line of defense against an outbreak of cattle fever. MPI’s are at risk as

they patrol difficult and dangerous terrain on horseback. Communication is a critical requirement for mission operations and personnel safety. Cellular phone service is not available in most of the patrol areas. Thus, the use of two-way radios has proven to be the best and most reliable means of communication. The shelter sites are in very remote areas and subjected to extreme environmental conditions, ranging from severe heat in the Summer to hurricane weather in the Fall and ice storms in the Winter season. The HVAC units are critical to maintaining operating temperatures for the radio repeater equipment housed in each of the six radio shelter sites supporting the LMR system.
