violations of the National Primary
Drinking Water Regulations
(‘‘NPDWRs’’) set forth in Section 1412 of
the SDWA, 42 U.S.C. 300g, and its
implementing regulations, 40 CFR Part

with the Surface Water Treatment Rule
(‘‘SWTR’’), at three Water Treatment
Plants (‘‘WTPs’’) owned and/or operated

PRASA’s violations for failing to comply
with the CWA by discharging pollutants

Decree requires such projects as
installing dechlorination equipment,
high level indicators and flow meters;

National Institute of Corrections
Solicitation for a Cooperative
Agreement—Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual,
Transgender, and Intersex Guidance
Project
AGENCY: National Institute of
Corrections, U.S. Department of Justice.
ACTION: Solicitation for a cooperative
agreement.
SUMMARY: The National Institute of
Corrections (NIC) is soliciting proposals
from organizations, groups, or
individuals to enter into a cooperative
agreement for a 12-month project
period. Work under this agreement will
result in a policy guide for corrections
practitioners charged with the care and
custody of lesbian, gay, bisexual,
transgender, and intersex (LGBTI)
offenders. In addition to providing
guidance in selected operational areas
(see Goal 2 and Supplementary
Information), the guide will provide:
(1) A brief summary of the relevant case
law, (2) a description of current terms
and definitions relevant to the LGBTI
population, including an
acknowledgment that these terms evolve

and change over time, and (3) a list of
topics that should be addressed in
initial and ongoing staff training.
Informational resources, websites, and
sources for additional support should
accompany each of these three areas.
It is anticipated that the policy guide
will be used by individuals from
Federal, State, and local corrections
agencies of all sizes and funding levels,
including primarily correctional
administrators, medical and mental
health staff, and training coordinators.
Consequently, the guide must provide
sufficient rationale and background
information where needed, be easy to
understand and convenient to use, and
provide resources for further study and
followup.
Ultimately, the policy guide will
allow users to determine best practices
for their specific agency or facility; write
policy, procedure, and post orders that
will allow implementation and
monitoring of these practices; and
develop staff and offender training and
orientation materials.
DATES: Applications must be received
by 4 p.m. EDT on Friday, June 11, 2010.
ADDRESSES: Mailed applications must be
sent to Director, National Institute of
Corrections, 320 First Street, NW., Room
5007, Washington, DC 20534.
Applicants are encouraged to use
Federal Express, UPS, or similar service
to ensure delivery by the due date.
Hand delivered applications should
be brought to 500 First Street, NW.,
Washington, DC 20534. At the front
desk, call (202)307–3106, extension 0
for pickup. Faxed applications will not
be accepted. The only electronic
applications (preferred) that will be
accepted can be submitted via https://
www.grants.gov.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: A

downloaded from the NIC Web site at
https://www.nicic.gov.
All technical or programmatic
questions concerning this
announcement should be directed to

Specialist, Research and Evaluation
Division, National Institute of
Corrections. She can be reached by
calling 1–800–995–6423 extension 4–

Project Goals: This project consists of
five goals, and the recipient of the
award under this cooperative agreement
will complete each as follows:
Goal 1: Develop a work plan
including major milestones, a
description of NIC’s role in the project,
NIC review and approval points, and a
project schedule. Note 1: The proposal
should describe the major components
