Statement of Work Grandview Office Complex Fiber Installation and Internet Service 4700 Grandview Road Beaver, WV 25813

April 22, 2024

Background Grandview Park Office Complex, a New River Gorge National Park and Preserve (NERI) site, requires high-speed broadband to support our Park Ranger Station (Law Enforcement) administrative operations, maintenance operations, telecommunications, and visitor outreach. In addition to supporting park service operations, high-speed broadband may also be provided to visitors allowing the public to share their park experience with their friends and family. We require connectivity in 2 locations within the park, Grandview Office Complex (GVOC) and the Grandview Visitors Center (GVC). There is only one physical address for the park, so the geographic coordinates are provided further down in this document. Currently, there are no companies providing fiber cabling to this location.

Site Details Grandview Office Complex (GVOC): primary focus of this request. This area houses a Ranger Station, Maintenance Office, and wildland Fire Response station. This area is currently serviced by a Cradlepoint cellular modem, which provides less than adequate bandwidth to meet the critical data and communications needs of this site.

As part of this project, we are also asking that Fiber ethernet service be provided to our location, which is approximately ¼ mile beyond the GVOC. This site is currently being serviced by DSL as well as a POTS line. This would require a connection speed about 30 Mbps download and 3 Mbps upload speed.

Required Tasks NERI requires reliable, business class 100 Mbps Internet Service to the Grandview Office Complex and Grandview Visitor Center to ensure stable delivery of services.
