If the Torrance County Commission elects to sign a contract with ICE, it is expected that the agency would pay Torrance County $2 million per month to operate the prison during its first year, and more in following years. The facility will house approximately 700 adult male migrants.
A private prison facility in New Mexico could reopen and be utilized as a center to house migrants who are awaiting asylum claims to be processed by the United States government.
The prison has 900 beds, Torrance County Manager Wayne Johnson told the Journal, adding that when the facility closed in 2017, the local economy took a hit since many people were employed by the prison. If the contract is signed between the county and ICE, Torrance County would then arrange a separate agreement with CoreCivic, the Nashville, Tennessee-based company that owns the facility, to hire staff and run the prison.While Johnson said he welcomes the facility opening up again, some New Mexico lawmakers told the Journal they were not sold on the idea.
