Proposed site must not be within 640’-0” of any facilities identified by ISC as “hazardous materials transportation/ storage facilities.” Hazardous locations include facilities with potential environmental threats (e.g., fuel storage areas, gas stations, chemical manufacturing facilities, and railroad lines transporting hazardous material). Special consideration should be given to exclude sites located near hazardous areas, such as bulk storage sites (e.g., hazardous materials storage sites, water purification centers, above-ground fuel storage, and rail yards). Proposed facility must not be located within 400’-0” of public defenders, ICE, probation offices, IRS, universities, other businesses or facilities, deemed unacceptable by Tenant Security for safety purposes. This requirement may be waived by Tenant Security if no other facility is deemed acceptable. In those cases, enhanced security requirements may be necessary. Proposed Tenant spaces or facilities within 400’-0,” or adjacent to facilities associated with foreign powers identified in Tenant's National Security Threat List, will not be considered. Anyone working on the project or have access to plans will need a Limited Access Request (LAR) background check. Other typical and special requirements as called for in the Request for Lease Proposal (RLP) package. Not all minimum requirements are reflected in this advertisement.

The U.S. Government currently occupies office and related space in a building under a lease in Johnson City, TN, that will be expiring.  The Government is considering alternative space if economically advantageous.  In making this determination, the Government will consider, among other things, the availability of alternative space that potentially can satisfy the Government’s requirements, as well as costs likely to be incurred through relocating, such as physical move costs, replication of tenant improvements and telecommunication infrastructure, and non-productive agency downtime.

Offered space must meet Government requirements for fire safety, accessibility, seismic, and sustainability standards per the terms of the Lease.  A fully serviced lease is required.  Offered space shall not be in the 1-percent-annual chance floodplain (formerly referred to as “100-year” floodplain).

Entities are advised to familiarize themselves with the telecommunications prohibitions outlined under Section 889 of the FY19 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), as implemented by the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR).  For more information, visit: https://acquisition.gov/FAR-Case-2019-009/889_Part_B.
