1.3.1
Summary:

The Airport’s Air Traffic Control Tower was built in 2006 as a part of the Federal Aviation Administration Contract Tower
Program. A condition of the agreement is that the Airport will maintain a minimum equipment list for the proper
operational functions of an Air Traffic Control Tower. In conjunction with our current preventative maintenance
contractor, a decision was made to replace the Liberty Star Voice Recording System currently in operation, due to the
lack of support from the manufacturer.

Harris Corporation is the sole‐source vendor of the voice recording system and will be the vendor used for the
replacement equipment. We will request pricing from Harris for the replacement system in October of 2020.

Update:
The equipment was received from Harris Corporation in late April and airport staff completed an inventory inspection to
ensure all parts were received. DBT, the Airport’s contractor, completed the install at the end of May with a final
inspection completed at that time.
