A 7,500-person immigrant detention facility is proposed for a former Big Lots warehouse in Tremont Township, Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania. It would be among the largest detention centers in the nation. The rural area's infrastructure currently cannot support an operation of this scale, leading to potential delays or stalling by the state government.
