Antenna Site Lease Renewals

The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) has an ongoing requirement for lease of Private Land Mobile Radios (PLMRs)/Antenna sites at specific locations. ATF has determined that it is in the Government's best interest to award these requirements with a Base year and up to four (4) Option Years.

In support of ATF's PLMR system's infrastructure needs, communication equipment is installed and housed in various locations throughout the Continental US, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, and Alaska. The locations include remote, mountainous, rural, and/or metropolitan sites. These sites were selected based on a survey conducted to determine what sites could meet the needs of ATF's PLMR system, which provides administrative and tactical radio communication coverage needs. Criterion includes:

1) Maximum transmit capability
2) Coverage range for clear as well as encrypted transmissions
3) Minimal interference on receive frequency
4) Radio frequency noise level/interference
5) Best level of safety for ATF agents in the field
6) Equipment housing facility and height
7) Utility support
8) Security
9) Site access
10) Telco Access
11) Cost

The contractors retain ownership of the individual towers where ATF's communications equipment is located.
