Sole Source determination is based on the fact that the Cortland Cable Company, Inc is uniquely qualified to provide the required cables because Cortland Cable has developed propitiatory products and propitiatory techniques of application of those products that are compatible with the mooring system, which would detect tsunamis in the open ocean and transmit warning signals via satellite, to communities in danger, in time to safely evacuate.
