ATLANTA — Corrections Corp. of America will expand operations in Georgia after state corrections officials awarded the contract to build and operate a new $57 million prison to the Tennessee-based company. Under the terms of the contract with the Georgia Department of Corrections, CCA will manage up to 1,150 male inmates at a new purpose-built facility, which will be owned by the private prison operator, according to reports. The company will design, construct and operate the new Jenkins Correctional Center on a 107-acre CCA-owned site in Millen, Ga. The project team includes architectural firm DLR Group, headquartered in Omaha, Neb., and Oklahoma City-based general contractor Flintco. “We are so very grateful to the residents, business and civic leaders and the elected officials in Millen and all of Jenkins County for showing us such an outpouring of support over the past months, when CCA was in the process of proposing that Georgia build and operate a prison on our Millen property, “ says Tony Grande, CCA executive vice president and chief development officer.
