The United States Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS), Legacy 3, intends to award a firm-fixed price, sole source contract to INNOVASEA MARINE SYSTEMS CANADA INC doing business as VEMCO, 20 Angus Morton DR Bedford, Ns B4B 0L9, Canada for HTI's Model 290-series Acoustic Tag Tracking Systems. FWS intends to award this requirement as a sole source to VEMCO because of an ongoing research project at Barkley Lock and Dam investigating the effectiveness of a Bioacoustic Fish Fence (BAFF) for Asian carp deterrence. The HTI Model 795LY tags that are currently in use in this ongoing project have a proprietary signal that is not readable by any other known manufacturers. In addition, weight, size, and lifespan of tags must be consistent from fish to Continued ...

In essence, only HTI Model 290-series Acoustic

Tag Tracking Systems can track Model 795 Acoustic

Tags that are currently in use due to the unique signal encoding utilized in the tags. Data processing systems have been developed and specifically tailored to the exact output and formatting of data from HTI receivers, which would differ from vendor to vendor. It is not practical to change these procedures.

VEMCO is the provider who has the capability to perform with existing equipment in use on this project. VEMCO manufactures state-of-the-art acoustic tag tracking systems for fisheries research which will support an existing telemetry array at the BAFF study site for the duration of the project.

INNOVASEA is the sole developer, manufacturer, and supplier of the VEMCO line of acoustic telemetry receivers, transmitters, receiver upgrades and receiver accessories and all associated software.

The NAICS code is 334290 - Other Communications

Equipment Manufacturing.
