ALBANY - An Ohio-based communications company has announced plans to open a call center in Albany that will bring 150 jobs to southwest Georgia. <br>
<br>
Officials welcomed CallTech Communications Monday. The center will open in June in the building that formerly housed Wal-Mart. <br>
<br>
CallTech has two call centers in Ohio, one in Pennsylvania and one in Florida. <br>
<br>
The Albany center will employ people who will field customer service and support calls for BellSouth's DSL service. <br>

Lieutenant Governor Mark Taylor was on hand with a $1 million check to welcome the company to Albany.<br>
<br>
The money was from the One Georgia Authority, which is distributing one-third of Georgia's tobacco settlement money toward economic development.<br>
