August 2009, the Alaska Department of Corrections awarded the Hudson Correctional Facility as the preferred facility for the operation and management of
850 minimum and medium security offenders.
GEO provides secure care, custody, control and programming for Alaska offenders. Services provided by GEO include security, medical care, food, laundry, video visitation and transportation. Male
offenders are housed at this facility and offers academic, functional literacy, education and work-based educational programs, substance abuse programs and health services programs. GEO assumed
operations of the Hudson Correctional Facility during the acquisition of Cornell Companies in August 2010.
This medium security facility includes 35 acres of site development, four 2-man cell detention buildings, a 60,000-square-foot administration and support facility. The project also includes a
7,500-square-foot maintenance facility, an 8,000-square-foot recreation building, and a 1,600-square-foot gate house. Off site infrastructure work was also a critical component of this project in
order to bring water, sewer, natural gas, phone, and electrical services from up to 2.5 miles away. Over 12,000 feet of security fencing was also constructed. |
