Last month a sophisticated new surveillance center was opened in northern Michigan to monitor the U.S.- Canada border; the $30 million, 9,000 square foot facility, located at the Selfridge Air National Guard Base, will act as a joint command center for Custom and Border Protection, the FBI, Coast Guard, state and local law enforcement officials, and even Canadian police; the command center will receive real time feeds from eleven surveillance cameras installed on towers alongside the St. Clair River; agents at the new surveillance center will be keeping an eye on drug smuggling, human trafficking, and illegal crossings related to terrorist activity
