According to records, Florida has signed more than 250 million US dollars for the construction “Alligator Alcatraz”.
Officials assume that the Federal Government will reimburse the country's first state migrant custody center, which is forecast that they cost around $ 450 million annually. Government lawyers used these payments as part of their defense in a federal law on environmental issues that finally led to a led Order published on Thursday evening to close the facility within 60 days.
The governor's office is the state agency, which signs these documents in accordance with the public database.
The largest contract that WPTV reporter Ethan Stein found Critical response strategiesA consulting company based in Jacksonville. The contract states that the provider would hire a supervisor, camp manager, correction officer, IT employee and other services for $ 78.5 million.
WPTV also found Longview Solutions Group Payment of 25.6 million US dollars for the preparation of the location, civil engineering, road construction and fence installation.
Another company called Doodie callsreceived a 22 million dollar contract for portable toilets and shower trailers.
Gothams, Another company received a contract of 21.1 million US dollars to provide IT services, access badges and bracelets for prisoners.
Another contract shows SLSCO LTD And Garner Environmental Services Both were awarded 19.7 million US dollars for the construction of the location and the solution to the ongoing maintenance problems.
The governor's executive regulation, in which a state of emergency was declared on the basis of mass migration, was originally signed in January 2023, which was able to spend this money. It has been expanded because the state argues that the situation continues to burden local resources.
Kevin Guthrie, director of Florida for the Department of Emergency Management, said that all these contracts were competitive for years before the facility was opened.
“Everything here was triggered by Master contracts that had a competitive procurement three years ago,” Guthrie told reporters last month.
Guthrie also informed the reporters that the state had removed some details from the database, since these contracts showed the tariffs of these companies for these competitive contracts, which he claimed that they granted competitors an advantage in the future.
David Richardson, a high -ranking civil servant who fulfills FEMA administrator tasks, said DHS announced 600 million dollars of federal financing for the program to support trees.
Richardson said that the program would provide financial support through a federal procedure in order to support the protection of illegal extraterrestrials in a detention environment and the associated activities in order to avoid overcrowding in the US customs and border protection at short notice. The only justified applicant as part of the program was the Florida Division of Emergency Management, but Florida has not yet applied for the award.
The government's lawyers argued that Florida, since she paid for the construction of the internment camp and participated with government employees, had to follow state rules and not the federal laws for construction. These federal laws include an environmental assessment and an explanation of environmental compatibility.
A judge released the argument and said the following:
“Instead of dealing with the failure, spending an ice cream or carrying out an EA as the final action by the agency, the accused try to redesign the problem as one that involves the final financing of the detention camp,” wrote the district judge Kathleen Williams. “The accused point out that the construction costs of the Florida internment camp were initially presented to reimburse the Federal Government. Accordingly, the accused argue that the” reimbursement decision “. . . has not been done yet. . . [and] There can be no final agency campaign. However, the court is not forced to concentrate on the financing decision, since the lack of an ice cream and EA is the final measures of the agency in the face of the intimate participation of the federal government and the accused in the prison and control of the prison. ”
