Operational impact of maintaining status quo• Current facilities cannot meet demands of today,

much less the increased demands of tomorrow

• Current funding levels will not meet CBP’s funding needs for over 40 years

• Evolving security and law enforcement mission requires modern facilities to detect, deter, and prevent

• Travel and trade facilitation suffers from aging and inefficient facilities

American Recovery and Reinvestment ActOverview

In February 2009, Congress appropriated funding in ARRA for the modernization of the U.S. land ports of entry (LPOE) and in support of economic recovery efforts. Modernization plans include:

• Enhancing technology and infrastructure at LPOEs

• Helping CBP meet its border security mission while continuing to facilitate legitimate travel and trade.

Overall, Congress appropriated $720 million in ARRA funding for LPOE modernization.

•$420 Million appropriated for CBP-owned LPOEs

•$300 Million appropriated for GSA-owned LPOEs

American Recovery and Reinvestment Act LPOE Modernization - Portfolio

Typical Characteristics based on Ownership

CBP-Owned Ports

• small, in rural areas with low traffic volume

• severe dilapidation and out-dated facility design drive facility needs

GSA-Owned or –Leased Ports

• large, in urban areas with high traffic volumes

• major congestion and inefficient configuration drive facility needs
