I think there was a MATOC issued for some shorter sections that were considered critical a year of so ago. This new Pre-Solicitation notice is for the 1,250 miles that has no effective high security fence or wall protection.
Currently we are replacing 10’ high salvage thin sheet steel material set in the mid 2000’s by ANG units from both Carolinas. The Border Control officers I talk to don’t like that they can not see to the other side.
We have private security when they demo the old and place temporary sections until the new fence catches up.
Never thought about snipers. I may have to upgrade my hard hat.
