The [[Division of Global Migration Health]] (DGMH) of the US [[Centers for Disease Control]] (CDC) operates small quarantine facilities at a number of US ports of entry. As of 2014, these included one land crossing (in [[El Paso, Texas]]) and 19 international airports.<ref>[https://www.cdc.gov/quarantine/QuarantineStationContactListFull.html Quarantine Station Contact List, Map, and Fact Sheets] (CDC)</ref><ref name=acrp2008>{{citation

Besides the [[port of entry]] where it is located, each station is also responsible for quarantining potentially infected travellers entering through any ports of entry in its assigned region. These facilities are fairly small; each one is operated by a few staff members and capable of accommodating 1–2 travellers for a short observation period.<ref name="acrp2008" /> Cost estimates for setting up a temporary larger facility, capable of accommodating 100 to 200 travellers for several weeks, have been published by the Airport Cooperative Research Program (ACRP) in 2008 of the [[Transportation Research Board]].<ref name="acrp2008" />
