The facility was slated to open in July 2007 but the state of Montana did not approve it. The Authority bonds defaulted on May 1, 2008. The consortium's contract terminated in January 2009 without any prisoners ever being homed in the jail. Climate data for Hardin, Montana Wikimedia Commons has media related to Hardin, Montana.
