- Description
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), National Weather Service (NWS), intends to negotiate a sole-source succeeding ground lease with Tallahassee International Airport for the continued occupancy and operation of the NWS NEXRAD (Next-Generation Radar) facility located at Tallahassee International Airport, Tallahassee, FL.
The current lease for this essential meteorological radar site expires on September 30, 2025. The proposed succeeding lease will be a ground lease for a term of twenty (20) years.
This site is an improved land lease and requires specific infrastructure, including appropriate utility connections and a 161-foot clear zone above the site to ensure unobstructed radar operations.
Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (41 U.S.C. 3304(a)(1)):
Pursuant to the authority of 41 U.S.C. 3304(a)(1) as implemented by GSAR 570.402, NOAA intends to award a sole-source lease to Tallahassee International Airport. A thorough cost-benefit analysis has determined that the costs associated with relocating the existing NWS NEXRAD facility, including the dismantling, moving, and re-establishment of complex radar equipment, as well as the acquisition and preparation of a new site meeting the stringent operational and clear zone requirements, would be cost-prohibitive and cannot be recovered. Relocation would also result in a significant disruption of critical weather radar services to the Tallahassee area and surrounding regions. The current location meets all technical and operational requirements, including the critical 161-foot clear zone, and possesses the necessary utility infrastructure.
