Description
Redacted J&A 1.On June 23rd 2012 a fire started on the west side of Colorado Springs. This fire quickly got out of control and began threatening homes and businesses. Due to the severity of the fire and danger it posed to the community 4th Infantry Division and Fort Carson became involved in the firefighting efforts on 25 June. This fire quickly turned into the a national emergency whereas 347 homes plus numerous businesses were destroyed. It was so bad that in fact the POTUS spent part of the day on Friday June 29th touring the area and receiving firsthand accounts of the efforts in extinguishing the fire. 3.The GNOMAD system was needed because numerous cell phone towers were destroyed in the fire, along with the extreme amount of cell phone usage was shutting down others. 4th ID had experience using this system in Iraq where they had just returned from the previous November. Due to the urgent nature of the requirement under FAR part 6.302-2(d)(3) Determination of Exceptional Circumstances, it was determined that we would proceed in acquiring 4 of the GNOMAD systems to support the effort.
