SALT LAKE CITY (AP) -- A partnership has identified itself as in the running to build a sprawling electronic data center for the nation's intelligence agencies in Utah.

Salt Lake City-based Jacobsen Construction is teaming up with New York-based Turner Construction Co. and Kiewit Co. of Omaha, Neb.

The partners say that building the 1 million-square-foot data center in less than three years will be a monumental undertaking.

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers says it isn't releasing the names of any companies who submitted qualification proposals Feb. 24 on the $1.7 billion construction project for the National Security Agency.
