Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area

High-Speed Internet Upgrade Project Replace T-1 Circuits with High-Speed Circuits at Visitor Use and Park Office Buildings

Statement of Work

Background: Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area (NRA) needs reliable, high-speed internet to perform park operations, improve safety communications, provide the public with information regarding park resources and recreational opportunities. The park currently operates on outdated, corroded copper T-1s that fail regularly resulting in loss of access to systems and data. The park operates a 24/7/365 dispatch operation for public safety at the headquarters campus communications center where reliable fast connectivity is of the utmost importance, loss of connectivity has a huge negative impact on dispatch and law enforcement ranger activities. In addition to Delaware Water NRA, the communications center provides dispatch support to Upper Delaware National Scenic River, Fire Island National Seashore, and Steamtown National Historic Site.

Objectives: The goal of this work is to provide all park offices with reliable high-speed internet to improve operational efficiency of day-to-day operations, emergency dispatch operations, and security of federal government systems through more timely updating and patching for vulnerabilities.

Scope: The project will require the placement of failing copper lines with new fiber optic and/or coax cable lines to the sites. A pole survey may be required for the utility companies to assess the work necessary to make space on the utility poles for these new cable runs. The project will consist of any work identified in the pole survey to complete the cable runs. The contractor will provide all labor, equipment and hardware necessary to provide the sites with internet connectivity. All cable runs to buildings will follow existing cabling paths. Building entrance points and mounts will be near existing cable entrance points and mounts. Any trenching will require additional compliance and archeological monitoring by the National Park Service – following existing aerial cable runs is preferred method where applicable.

Circuits delivered at each location will be a 10-megabyte circuit with the ability to increase to higher speeds as park needs arise and funding becomes available.

The park will use existing interior house network cabling for distribution of internet service to computers within the site. The park will request the LAN-to-LAN devices using current National Park Service (NPS) procedures to extend internet service and access to the Department of the Interior (DOI) wide area network.

The park will coordinate the cutover to the new internet service provider when installation of the LAN-to-LAN devices is scheduled. The park will pay the monthly service fees upon activation of the service and request consolidated billing for all sites EXCEPT the Dingmans Campground Office Facility which will be the financial responsibility of the concessioner operating the campground.
