Coast Guard voice and data communications services

Level 3 Communications has been selected by the United States Coast Guard (USCG) to provide voice and data communications services. Level 3 is delivering services under the Washington Interagency Telecommunications Services 3 (WITS3) contract that negotiates telecommunications service plans and rates on behalf of all local and federal agencies operating within the National Capital Region. Under the terms of the agreement, Level 3 will provide connectivity for data transmission between 10 metropolitan sites, including USCG headquarters in Washington, D.C. and their main Telecommunications and Information Systems Command location in Alexandria, Va. In addition, Level 3 will provide voice services at each site to support day-to-day operations, including priority voice services as part of the Department of Homeland Security First Responders program.
