(a) Authority. (1) Citations: 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1) or 41 U.S.C. 253(c)(1). USDA, APHIS has used and currently owns twenty TSI PortaCount units. USDA, ARS has a unit and the DHS CDP and other organizations also use the TSI PortaCount. The selected TSI PortaCount is intended to comply with current Avian Influenza respirator fit-testing requirements but also is being purchase to comply with future biological and chemical driven respirator fit-testing concerns and/or requirements. The Respiratory Protection Program is critical to APHIS and other personnel. The four new units will be sent to Riverdale where they will be set-up and shipped to the field to fill needs at field locations that currently do not have ready access to a TSI PortaCount. Award for such a highly specialized pieces of equipment and it's components to any other source would require complete replacement of all equipment due to non compatibility with all existing equipment and lack of interchangeability, which would result in unacceptable delays in fulfilling the agency's requirements and substantial duplication of cost to the Government that is not expected to be recovered through such competition.
