The Tucker Sno-Cat is a four track articulating vehicle that provides the ultimate traction for access to remote communication sites to provide maintenance to the public safety communication system (DTRS). The Sno-Cat are a all terrain vehicle that can traverse deep snow, mud, and blizzard conditions. The Sno-Cat also has an 8 foot 4 way blade to cut trails, dig out gates, and buildings in deep snow.

. Is there any additional information that you’d like to provide in order for this request to be considered?

The Tucker Sno-Cat is the only manufacturer that has a light weight Sno-Cat with a blade attachment. I have attached the Sole Source letter from the manufacturer with this email.

We would have to continue to using our old Sno-Cat that is 20 years old and is getting harder to keep it running reliably. Our Sno-Cat is a important piece of equipment that provides access to remote sites to keep the equipment running for public safety communications. Along with technician safety if we were to breakdown on the way into a site in the winter.

Our Sno-Cats are getting old and we need to start replacing them so we have reliable and safe transportation to our remote communication sites in adverse weather condition. We have also used our Sno-Cats to recover strained citizens during major blizzard events, and to assist Parks and Wildlife with feeding elk during heavy snow years.
