Boeing awarded contract on border fence: Chertoff From: reuters.com

Tagged: , , , ,

“The U.S. government has decided to award Boeing contracts for the construction of two sections of a high-tech fence to be built along the border with Mexico in Arizona, Department of Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff said on Monday.

The two fence sections would be an “operational configuration” of a much-criticized 28-mile (45-km) section of “virtual fence” built by Boeing and tested earlier, Chertoff told a news conference.

He said the fence would include fixed towers, with radar sensors, remote control cameras, ground sensors and software linking border agents to give them a “common operating picture” of the areas they are enforcing.”*
