    Two individuals wearing white hard hats with red stripes and high-visibility yellow safety vests are inspecting a section of steel barrier structure at what appears to be a border wall or security fence construction site. One person is wearing U.S. Army multicam/OCP uniform with an American flag patch visible on the sleeve, while the other is in civilian attire. They are examining rocks and rubble at the base of the steel bollard-style barrier in an arid desert environment.

    U.S. Army Corps of Engineers employees inspect existing Normandy-style vehicle barrier near Columbus, New Mexico, April 11. USACE is supporting the Department of Homeland Security's request to build pedestrian fencing, construct and improve roads, and install lighting within the Yuma, Arizona, and El Paso, Texas, U.S. Border Patrol sectors following the Feb. 15 national emergency declaration on the southern border of the United States. The Department of Defense has the authority under Section 284 of Title 10, U.S. Code, to construct roads and fences and to install lighting to block drug-smuggling corridors across international boundaries of the United States in support of counter-narcotic activities of federal law enforcement agencies.
