San Diego, CA, United States, 07/21/2008 – Construction is complete for the new Border Patrol El Centro Sector Headquarter Facilities located at 221 West Aten in Imperial, California. KMA Architecture & Engineering (KMA) was retained by Baker Engineering as design architect for the $17 million project owned by The United States Department of Homeland Security.
