    Workers with Catamount Constructors, Inc. of Lakewood, Colo., continued construction of the Fort McCoy Access Control Point project and other projects Aug. 24, 2018, at Fort McCoy, Wis.

    A $9.9 million contract for the new construction was awarded in 2017 to Catamount Constructors Inc. through the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, which is managing the contract.

    The project description shows construction includes the building of a new identification check area with a new gatehouse; search office; inspection canopies; and development and construction of new roadways, parking, lighting, and traffic control signals.

    There will be physical security items built into the project, too. This includes passive and active vehicle barriers with comprehensive control systems as well as security fencing, information systems, fire protection and alarm systems, and installation of an Intrusion Detection System.

    Contractors also continue work on a new 1,428-person annual training/mobilization dining facility Aug. 24, 2018, in the 2400 block at Fort McCoy.

    The project, coordinated by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, is being constructed by contractor L.S. Black Constructors of St. Paul, Minn., and is supposed to be completed in late 2019.
