    2 SOW RDLP Shipping Containers Complete.docx
    The Department of Homeland Security's U.S. Coast Guard intends to acquire two climate-controlled 20-foot shipping containers for the Regional Dive Locker Pacific (RDLP) to enhance diving operations in remote areas. The justification for this procurement stems from the difficulty in accessing Recompression Chambers in locations that exceed the US Navy Diving Manual’s stated timeframes for emergency access. The containers will enable the secure storage and transport of life-support equipment, reducing damage risk from exposure to harsh environments and inefficiencies associated with the current storage methods. This acquisition will support urgent operations, including humanitarian assistance and disaster response, ensuring that RDLP can deploy vital equipment without delays. Specifications call for each container to include a personnel door, lockset, climate control, caulking, and protective zinc coating. The delivery location is set at RDLP in Honolulu, HI, and the transaction is tax-exempt, reflecting the federal government’s operational needs and fiscal responsibility.
