The Aurora ICE Processing Center in Aurora, Colo. is owned and managed by Geo under contract with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. It currently has 400 beds.
The Boca Raton-based correctional, detention and residential treatment firm said the expansion will cost about $72 million. It expects to finish construction in the third quarter of 2009.
At 90 percent capacity, Geo expects the additional beds to generate about $30 million in annual revenue.
