    Three workers in safety gear are gathered at an outdoor construction or staging site, appearing to review documents or plans. Large steel beams or panels are stacked in the background, and prefabricated steel X-frame supports are visible on the right side. The setting appears to be an arid, desert-like environment with scrub vegetation.

    A U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Task Force Barrier project engineer describes the barrier panel installation process to the task force chief of staff (right) at the El Paso project near Santa Teresa, N.M. The barrier system project spans approximately 46 miles, replacing existing barriers with steel bollard barriers. USACE is providing direction and oversight of Department of Defense (DoD)-funded construction of barrier system projects along the southwest border. These projects are being executed by USACE, as directed through the U.S. Army by the Secretary of Defense, in response to Department of Homeland Security’s request for assistance to help secure the United States southern border by blocking drug-smuggling corridors through the construction of roads and fences, and the installation of lighting under the Title 10, section 284 of the U.S. Code. DoD and USACE are executing these projects in support of U.S. Customs and Border Protection.
