Eagle Companies-Chillicothe, Illinois
Eagle Companies EDS System completes turnkey relocation of a 60-bed spilt gender detention facility from Decatur County, Indiana to the Island of St. Croix. This facility is in full compliance with all International Detention Standards. The facility was originally built in 2019 and was resold by Eagle to the U.S. Virgin Islands Bureau of Prison in 2023.
The facility consists of 8 sections with a total weight of #225,500 lbs. Structural calculation are certified to meet Miami Dade tropical wind load capacity of 175 mph. This design is consistent with other projects Eagle has provided in Caymans Island, Island of Bermuda and the Dominican Republic.
Despite challenging site conditions, the Eagle team managed to navigate clearance restrictions and successfully staged the sections off-site at the port. The commissioning process is underway and is expected to be completed within 3-4 weeks.

Human rights prompt new police jail cells
New prefabricated buildings to replace the George Town and West Bay police jails are set to be operational in November, government officials said Thursday during a groundbreaking ceremony near Fairbanks women’s prison.
The penal-grade modular buildings will be used as short-term holding facilities for prisoners in police custody, who under the Cayman Islands Bill of Rights “have the right to be treated with humanity and with respect for the inherent dignity of the human person.”
As evidenced by a United Kingdom prison inspectors’ report released in February, the jails in the George Town and West Bay police stations fall far below the constitutional standard. Police and civil servants have long lobbied for improved short-term holding facilities.
“What we have right now are not cells. They’re cages,” Police Commissioner David Baines said.

Eagle went beyond the call of duty in helping Carter County. Particularly like the respect they showed us. I would highly recommend Eagle Companies to any County looking for additional detention bed space.
Very pleased, the building exceeded our expectations. Great value for the money. Would recommend Eagle Companies without hesitation. John Henson, Sheriff Carter County

“We think that our model can eventually be used to not only relieve overcrowding in jails, but also in the future on the federal level for the detention of undocumented aliens who are set to be returned to their home country. We first brought the idea for using the custom detention facility model to the city, as a way to raise revenues.” Nealie McCormick, Chief of Police

The modular units are performing better than most people expected. The one really outstanding part that exceeded our Operations Department’s initial opinion is the overall construction of the units. They are significantly more durable and better sealed than our people thought. I believe that the heating systems were not needed until sometime in late January; and if you know our weather up here we were likely well into the minus 20 range by then. They’re so well sealed, that it actually caused us some issue with excess humidity.

Testimonial:
Thank you very much for the consistent quality you and provided us over the last couple of years. The craftsmanship and quality built into your product, plus providing “above and beyond” customer service satisfaction, keeps us coming back.
The mobile workshops and warehouse we have purchased and deplored overseas, have kept our product at the highest levels of readiness for the troops. Our program is considered the best in-theater for CE/MHE (Construction and Material Handling Equipment) service and support. With the workshops you provided to us, we would not have come close to providing the highest levels of Caterpillar product readiness and the best quality in arts and service support.
Sincerely
Rich Gardner

They are significantly more durable and better sealed than our people thought. I believe that the heating systems were not needed until sometime in late January; and if you know our weather up here we were likely well into the minus 20 range by then. They’re so well sealed, that it actually caused us some issue with excess humidity.
The only other item that has been raised as a potential improvement, could be the ability to have the high level windows in the units operable. This could be accomplished by caging the outside of the window, and allowing the window to tilt out at the base only 2-3”. As I stated above the units are so well constructed that we do not require heating unit the dead of winter, but in the shoulder seasons natural ventilation could resolve a lot of the humidity and excess heating issues we’ve experienced.
Anyhow, the overall impression is far more positive than some people originally expected. We expect that with a few minor adjustments that these units will perform well for us in the future.
Thanks again,
