American
Border Patrol reports that a new border fence between Naco,
Arizona, and the San Pedro River is nearing completion. An aerial
survey of the area performed yesterday [click
here to watch] revealed ten miles
of fencing is now in place, and that the final 1.5 miles
of fencing is under construction at
the southern boundary of the San Pedro River Riparian area.
"For five years American Border
Patrol has documented a flood of illegal aliens through the San
Pedro River Riparian area," said Glenn Spencer of ABP, "and
this new fencing, that will disturb hardly a hair on the head
of the riparian area, may well cut this flood significantly."
Spencer said ABP will work to assess the effectiveness of the
new fence. |
