SALT LAKE CITY, Utah – The National Security Agency and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers broke ground today on a $1.2 billion data center at Camp W.G. Williams National Guard Post here. The massive, one million square-foot facility currently is the largest U.S. Department of Defense project in the nation.

“This will bring 5,000 to 10,000 new jobs during the construction and development phase,” Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, said at the event. “Once completed, it will support 100 to 200 permanent, high-paid employees.”

More than 200 personnel attended the ceremony, including Utah Lt. Gov. Greg Bell and other state and local representatives.

The data center will be a state-of-the-art facility designed to support the Intelligence Community’s efforts to further strengthen and protect the nation’s cyber security.

“In an era when our nation and its allies are increasingly dependent on the integrity of information and systems supported, transmitted, or stored in cyberspace, it is essential that that space is as resilient and secure as possible,” said NSA Deputy Director John C. Inglis.

NSA is the executive agent for the Office of the Director of National Intelligence and will be the lead agency at the data center. The facility will assist various agencies, including the Department of Homeland Security, in protecting national security networks.

“There is a clear mandate for a public-private partnership – led on the government side by DHS – but supported by all elements of the U.S. government, to include federal, state and local organizations represented here today,” Inglis added.

Brig. Gen. Peter A. DeLuca, commander of the North Atlantic Division of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, attended the event and emphasized the teamwork necessary for a project of this size, and its importance.

“It is important for the Corps, our customer, and the nation,” DeLuca said.

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is the construction agent responsible for handling the acquisition and contracting process, design management and review, and project management. Two Army Corps districts serve on the Utah Data Center project delivery team – the Baltimore and Sacramento districts.

NSA PRESS RELEASE

The number of foreclosed homes being bought and sold across the country and in Utah is falling significantly, a new report indicated.

The RealtyTrac Third Quarter 2010 U.S. Foreclosure Sales Report showed that foreclosed homes accounted for 25 percent of all U.S. residential sales in the third quarter of 2010, with the average sales price of properties that sold while in some stage of foreclosure more than 32 percent below the average sales price of properties not in the foreclosure process. That was up from a 26 percent discount in the previous quarter and 29 percent in the third quarter of last year.

In Utah, foreclosed homes accounted for just over 20 percent homes sold during the quarter, but prices only discounted about 3 percent, the report noted.

Sales of foreclosed properties in default, scheduled for auction or bank-owned (REO)  in Utah fell nearly 30 percent from the previous quarter and 21 percent from the same period in 2009.

“The RealtyTrac report confirms that there are fewer foreclosures in Salt Lake City and Utah compared to the rest of the nation,” said Bill Heiner, president of the Salt Lake Board of Realtors. “With fewer homes for sale in the Salt Lake area, home prices are beginning to stabilize and even increase in some neighborhoods.”
