The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has allowed a temporary pause on border construction projects in the Big Bend region of Texas to expire, clearing the way for work on one project to resume while officials consider scaling back a separate proposal affecting Big Bend National Park.
Federal court filings from September 29 show U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) will lift its pause on ground-disturbing activities for the Big Bend 2 project beginning September 30. That project calls for approximately 61 miles of border barrier system in Presidio County and is separate from the Big Bend 4 project that includes land within and east of Big Bend National Park.
