Electronic Security Systems Upgrades at USCG Eureka Housing Area

This document provides clarification on the Electronic Security System (ESS) upgrade for Coast Guard housing in Eureka. Key clarifications outline that the contractor is fully responsible for all electrical infrastructure—including branch circuits, conduit, and trenching—needed to power the NEMA 4X PoE+ enclosures. Additionally, the contractor must determine final camera and wireless node locations through a post-award site survey. The baseline requirement of fifteen cameras remains, but the Coast Guard will consider a strategic mix of fixed, multi-sensor, and PTZ cameras to achieve 100% situational awareness. Cryptographic modules for wireless equipment, network video recorders, and PTZ cameras must be actively FIPS-validated, with proof of validation required post-award. Storage must support 30 days of continuous recording under specific video quality parameters. Furthermore, the Coast Guard preferred that contractors avoid using PG&E-owned utility poles, requiring them instead to coordinate any utility pole usage directly with PG&E. Personnel requirements dictate that all contractor employees, including those performing physical installation, must have a favorable Tier 2 adjudication (or Tier 4 for system administrators) prior to accessing the facility. Finally, the contractor is responsible for decommissioning, removing, and disposing of approximately 24 legacy analog cameras and associated equipment located in the housing office.

This federal Statement of Work (SOW) outlines requirements for a turn-key modernization of the Video Surveillance System (VSS) at the USCG Housing Community in Eureka, CA. To avoid disruptive trenching, the project utilizes a Wireless Microwave Hybrid architecture, clustering fifteen premium outdoor 4K PTZ cameras connected to local PoE+ switches. Data will transmit via secure, FIPS-validated AES-256 encrypted Point-to-Point and Point-to-MultiPoint microwave links back to a central housing office Network Video Recorder (NVR), supporting at least 30 days of high-definition recording. The contractor's responsibilities are structured across four primary tasks: developing a comprehensive Electronic Security System (ESS) Security Plan, procuring and verifying NDAA-compliant hardware, decommissioning and safely transferring legacy analog equipment to the Coast Guard for data sanitization, and executing system installation, configuration, and acceptance testing. Key personnel must include a Project Manager and a Lead Certified Technician (roles may be dual-hatted) holding active OEM certifications. All personnel require background investigations (Tier 2/Tier 4) and annual cybersecurity training. Crucial deliverables include a Software Bill of Materials (SBOM), Accessibility Conformance Reports, and a final documentation package with "As-Built" drawings, which are designated as Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI). The performance period is 90 days from contract award.
