Description
The Bureau of Reclamation is seeking to acquire twelve acoustic receiver/datalogger systems, specifically the Lotek WHS4350L or equal, to support fisheries monitoring activities associated with the Central Valley Project. The systems will be used to detect, store, and process acoustic telemetry data to monitor fish presence, movement, routing, and survival. The contract is expected to be a firm fixed price contract, and the delivery of the systems is required within twelve weeks after receipt of order.
• The systems must be fully compatible with the Government's existing Lotek acoustic telemetry system.
• The systems must be capable of collecting, storing, and processing data generated by the Government's existing Lotek system.
• The systems must have a minimum operational life of 200 days when powered by four lithium primary D-cell batteries.
• The systems must have a weight of 1.7 kg maximum and a size of approximately 60 mm x 585 mm.
• The systems must have a depth rating of minimum 400 meters and a data storage capacity of minimum 8 GB removable microSD card.
• The systems must have an operating temperature range of 0°C to 50°C minimum and an operating frequency of 416.7 kHz.
