WINCHESTER, Va. – The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Middle East District has awarded a contract for the re-procurement of the fiscal year 2008 Special Operations Forces Program Facilities at a forward deployed location in Southwest Asia.

The contract was awarded Jan. 4 to Contrack International Inc., of McLean, Va., for $27,859,290.
