The document also details requirements for Continuity of Operations (COOP) support for the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), outlining contractor responsibilities during emergencies, invoice submission procedures to the U.S. Coast Guard Finance Center, and guidelines for the Contracting Officer's Representative (COR) and Technical Monitors. Contractor performance will be assessed using the CPARS system, and specific TSA points of contact are provided.
The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) requires an existing indoor firing range within a 30-mile radius of Atlanta International Airport (ATL) for training purposes. The range must accommodate a minimum of twelve simultaneous firing points and be available at least eight days per month, preferably Tuesday and Thursday mornings, excluding federal holidays. Specific requirements include target placement flexibility (1.5-75 feet), distinct firing line indicators, and barricades constructed from non-ricochet materials. Range rules must permit drawing and firing from the holster, multiple and rapid-fire drills, and tactical movement with an instructor. Additionally, the facility must have a firearms cleaning area, 240 square feet of secure storage, separate male and female restrooms, and a classroom for at least 24 students. The firing range area must be closed or limited from public view during use. A bullet trap is required, with the range owner responsible for lead recovery. The TSA will provide ammunition, targets, and instructors, requiring exclusive use of the range in 4-hour blocks with 30 days advance notice for schedule changes. The estimated monthly round count is 96,000, based on 24 shooters firing 500 rounds per session over eight days.
