Buys New TVI Chem/Bio Infection Control Syst B: Washington D.C. Buys New TVI Chem/Bio Infection Control System GLENN DALE, Md., Mar 3, 2003 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- TVI Corporation (OTCBB:TVIN) The nation's capital has chosen the newest TVI technology to protect the people, the government and the institutions located in Washington D.C. The systems, purchased by the Office of Homeland Security for the District of Columbia, consist of highly portable, self-contained, trailerized apparatus that can be deployed at a moment's notice to any site in the Washington D.C. area and are equipped with the new TVI Bio/Infection Control facilities. By coupling TVI's state-of-the-art technology in rapidly deployable decontamination systems, with a full compliment of generators, self-supporting lighting systems, and TVI's Chem/Bio Infection Control System, the Office of Homeland Security can ensure that triage, medical and decontamination operations can be immediately commenced, on site, with full functionality, and without fear of contamination spread, regardless of the situation, location or scenario. The new equipment supports chemical and biological incidences with the use of a U.S. Army Quality Evaluation Laboratory (Aberdeen Proving Grounds) tested air filtration system. This system provides negative air pressure in the triage shelters and contains the spread of both biological weapons such as smallpox, anthrax and viral hemorrhagic fevers, as well as containing nerve agents such as VX, tabun and sarin. The amount of the award was $348,000. This award validates the continued quality and unmatched performance of TVI's technology and demonstrates the real need for rapidly deployable/portable infection control equipment. Rick Priddy, TVI CEO states "We are proud that our equipment will be used to help protect both the residents and visitors to the nation's capital and we believe that the best defense against terrorism is to be well prepared. This equipment, with the new Bio/Chem Infection Control System, brings us all closer to that objective."
