The Idaho National Laboratory (INL) Wireless Test Bed (WTB) would procure and install a long-term evolution (LTE) Tier III Cellular system.  This project would support research and development conducted by organizations such as Idaho National Laboratory (INL) National & Homeland Security (N&HS), State of Idaho Public Safety, National Public Safety, the Federal Program First Responder Network Program (FirstNet), and the interoperability of LTE Cellular and Verizon Wireless.  This environmental checklist (EC) covers only system purchase, installation, training, testing and routine maintenance.  Each project/customer test would require a separate, project-specific EC.
