The U. S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Fort Worth District (SWF) intends to solicit a brand name only irrigation component per FAR 6.302-1.

Part of the project includes the installation of irrigation components that will tie into an existing irrigation system at the cemetery. The Fort Worth District intends to sole source brand name Toro sprinkler heads: Toro Mini 8 - (2.0 nozzle) rotor sprinklers (O.A.E.) Toro TR50XT PSS-75 - (7.5 nozzle) rotor sprinklers (O.A.E.) Toro T7PSS-02 - (16.0 nozzle) rotor sprinklers (O.A.E.) Toro TR50XT PSS-30 - (3.0 nozzle) rotor sprinklers (O.A.E.) Toro 570ZPR - pop-up sprinklers (O.A.E.).
