1. BACKGROUND

Current and proposed conditions at the El Centro Sector Highway 111 Checkpoint are such that a facility backup generator is required in order to continue mission essential operations in the event of a complete power failure. Primary power to the checkpoint is provided by the City of Indio. No secondary power source is in place.
