RFP document with proposal requirements and due dates. RFP 225198 One X-band Scanning ARM Precipitation Radar System November 21, 2012 The U.S. Department of Energy's Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) Program has been operating zenith pointing cloud radars at its ARM Climate Research Facilities (ACRF) for over a decade. These radars, operating in the Ka and W bands, have provided years of invaluable data pertaining to cloud structure and dynamics. However, vertically pointing radars have their limitations in that only a two dimensional view of the cloud is obtained. Millimeter wave radars are also poor precipitation radars since they saturate in light rain and experience excessive atmospheric loss due to atmospheric liquid water. As part of the 2009 American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, ARM procured four X-band Scanning ARM Precipitation Radars (XSAPRs). Three are located at ARM's SGP site in Oklahoma and a fourth is located at ARM's site in Barrow, Alaska. To differentiate between the previously delivered XSAPRs and the new XSAPRs being procured by this specification, the new radars are referred to as XSAPR-2. The Technical Specification outlines the minimum requirements necessary to meet ARM's science goals with the XSAPR-2 and the associated infrastructure to install XSAPR-2 at the ARM site on Graciosa Island in the Azores. Battelle Memorial Institute, Pacific Northwest Division (Battelle) acting under Prime Contract DE-AC05-76RL01830 with the US Department of Energy (DOE), for the management, operation and maintenance of the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) in Richland, Washington, is interested in receiving a proposals for one X-band Scanning ARM Precipitation Radar System, delivered and installed in the Azores, Portugal.
