R -- The Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) has a requirement for Seismic Station Certification Planning and CTBT Upgrade of University of California-Managed Auxiliary Seismic Sites for an estimated total value of $255,000.00. The University of California-San Diego (UCSD) will operate and maintain two auxiliary seismic stations (Kodiak Island, Alaska, and Pinon Flat, California). These stations are part of the International Monitoring System (IMS) for the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty (CTBT) and are designated as auxiliary sites in the treaty. The stations are U.S. responsibility under the treaty for both operation and certification as part of the preparation for Entry-into-Force (EIF) of the treaty and for continuous operations and maintenance after EIF. DTRA is responsible for certification of these stations and supplying operations and maintenance funding. The stations are owned and operated by UCSD; therefore, the University is singularly qualified to operate and maintain them in preparation for certification by the Provisional Technical Secretariat (PTS) of the treaty organization. See Note 22. Any other firm desiring consideration must fully identify its capability to perform this requirement.
