    The image shows a long metal border fence or barrier wall extending into the distance, with graffiti spray-painted on its corrugated metal panels. The base of the fence is littered with debris, trash, and discarded materials. In the background, utility poles, a hillside with urban development, and a partly cloudy sky are visible.

    Vietnam-era landing mat were used to construct the primary pedestrian barrier in San Diego’s Border Infrastructure System. Without the ability to see through it, landing mat barrier creates agent safety concerns. It’s also easily breached and under-dug. DHS’s FY 2017 Enacted Appropriations provided funding to replace 14 miles of this legacy primary pedestrian barrier with steel bollard wall.
