Agreement No.55080 3. CBRNE Search and Rescue Equipment - Equipment providing a technical search and rescue capability for a CBRNE environment: · Hydraulic tools; hydraulic power unit · Listening devices; hearing protection · Search cameras ( including thermal and infrared imaging) · Breaking devices (including spreaders, saws and hammers) · Lifting devices (including air bag systems, hydraulic rams, jacks, ropes and block and tackle) · Blocking and bracing materials · Evacuation chairs (for evacuation of disabled personnel) · Ventilation fans 4. Interoperable Communications Equipment - Equipment and systems providing connectivity and electrical interoperability between local and interagency organizations to coordinate CBRNE response operations: · Land Mobile, Two-Way In-Suit Communications (secure, hands-free, fully duplex, optional), including air-to-ground capability (as required) · Antenna systems · Personnel Alert Safety System (PASS) - (location and physiological monitoring systems optional) · Personnel Accountability Systems · Individual/portable radios, software radios, portable repeaters, radio interconnect systems, satellite phones, batteries, chargers and battery conditioning systems · Computer systems designated for use in an integrated system to assist with detection and communication efforts (must be linked with integrated software packages designed specifically for chemical and/or biological agent detection and communication purposes) · Portable Meteorological Station (monitors temperature, wind speed, wind direction and barometric pressure at a minimum) · Computer aided dispatch system · Commercially available crisis management software · Mobile Display Terminals Note: In an effort to improve public safety interoperability, all new or upgraded radio systems and new radio equipment should be compatible with a suite of standards called ANSI/TIA/EIA-102 Phase I (Project 25). These standards have been developed to allow for backward compatibility with existing digital and analog systems and provide for interoperability in future systems. The FCC has chosen the Project 25 suite of standards for voice and Iow-moderate speed data interoperability in the new nationwide 700 MHZ frequency band and the Integrated Wireless Network (IWN) of the U.S. Justice and Treasury Departments has chosen the Project 25 suite of standards for their new radio equipment. In an effort to realize improved interoperability, all radios purchased under this grant should be APCO 25 compliant. 33
