    The U.S. Coast Guard’s Regional Dive Locker Pacific (RDLP) seeks to acquire two 20-foot climate-controlled shipping containers for the storage and transport of life-support diving equipment. The justification for this acquisition stems from the limited accessibility of recompression chambers in remote diving locations, which necessitates effective storage solutions to prevent equipment damage and enhance emergency response capabilities. The containers will protect vital equipment from corrosion and being misplaced, ensuring that RDLP can respond swiftly to high-priority missions such as humanitarian assistance and disaster relief. The specifications for the containers include climate control systems, electrical packages, adequate lighting, and secure access doors. This initiative emphasizes the necessity of maintaining operational readiness and reducing reliance on commercial diving services. The delivery of these containers will support the sustainability of U.S. Coast Guard diving operations and improve overall mission efficiency.
