Actual FBO link

quote:

The Dept. of Homeland Security, Customs and Border Protection (CBP) intends on issuing a solicitation in electronic format on or about March 6, 2017 for the design and build of several prototype wall structures in the vicinity of the United States border with Mexico. The procurement will be conducted in two phases, the first requiring vendors to submit a concept paper of their prototype(s) by March 10, 2017, which will result in the evaluation and down select of offerors by March 20, 2017. The second phase will require the down select of phase 1 offerors to submit proposals in response to the full RFP by March 24, 2017, which will include price. Multiple awards are contemplated by mid-April for this effort. An option for additional miles may be included in each contract award.

ICE has been rounding them up for impressed labor. Very savvy and efficient.

I'm sure a month is perfectly adequate to put together a bid of this magnitude I guess Trump will simply force all the landholders along the southern border to sell. A true conservative!

It's almost as if they don't know what they're doing.

Let the non-violent ones work off their crime and then put them in the military to go fight in Syria...just dreaming before I caught myself!

Most landholders along the border will gladly welcome a cessation of the violence that destroys their land, their peace of mind, and many many of their lives!

Mo Money Mo Money Mo Money Mo Money!!!!!

God I love the smell of pork in the morning...it smells like.....VICTORY!!!!

I think the wall be at least triple redundant....one is easy to scale and two ain't much harder...but three...three is the ticket...

And it should be made entirely out of of 304 stainless and Micro reinforced UHPC with a compressive strength of about 200 MPa....like that used in the new WTC...we don't want them brown bastards busting holes in it!!!


Gonna be a GOOD 4 years....gonna have to hide behind trees to keep from having money thrown at you if you are in the right business!!! Damn I am glad y'all got rid of all that damned conservativism bullshite....I know y'all like pork as much as anyone...come on in fellows the water is fine!!!

Contractor mentality. But new 90K pick up, go in debt, don't pay bills, never pay taxes, build stuff, poorly usually.

Nah, one is satisfactory, especially when you have a 100 yard deep mine field in front of it!

when you ask for details they say, he's not Clinton.

eventually that will not satisfy.

who owns the land on the border?

It's surprising that some media outlet hasn't found one land-owner who is objecting to this land grab.

Having worked on drilling rigs within eyesight of the border and seeing illegals run across...i can tell you that the land owners would GLADLY sell 0.005% of their land for security.

The ranchers must be out protesting instead of defending their land. How else would these folks be getting across the border?

Typical ranchers. All hat and no cattle. Communist sympathizers.
