[QUOTE="reddog1, post: 1885404, member: 7050"] Just another innocent purchase people, no tin foil here... move on. [url]http://www.gsnmagazine.com/article/2...canine_trainin[/url] Wed, 2012-08-08 09:43 AM By: Jacob Goodwin TSA has put an invitation to bid on the street for 700 pounds of A-5 Flake RDX explosives and 700 pounds of high density ammonium nitrate explosives, which will be used as training aids by explosive-sniffing dogs participating in the National Canine Program (NCP). The [Canine Explosives Section] has selected to use High Density Ammonium Nitrate and A-5 Flake RDX as it will provide NCP participants with a more realistic training aid and complement the current aids provided, explains a statement of work released by TSA on August 7. The invitation to bid is a 100% small business set-aside opportunity, and prospective vendors have until August 13 to submit their bids. Delivery of the explosives, which must be packed in bags, is required within 15 days, says the TSA notice. The RDX and ammonium nitrate will be sent to the William J. Hughes Technical Center in Atlantic City, NJ. TSA's National Explosives Detection Canine Team Program prepares dogs and handlers to serve on the front lines of America's War on Terror, says the agencys Website. These very effective, mobile teams can quickly locate and identify dangerous materials that may present a threat to transportation systems. Just as important, they can quickly rule out the presence of dangerous materials in unattended packages, structures or vehicles, allowing the free and efficient flow of commerce. Further information about the solicitation for RDX and ammonium nitrate is available from Delisa Corbett, a contract specialist, at 571-227-4025 or [email]delisa.corbett@dhs.gov[/email]. [/QUOTE]
