Bureau of Prisons (BOP) or operated by private companies contracted to primarily house inmates for state correctional
authorities or the BOP. These facilities are intended for adults but sometimes hold juveniles. For this data collection, each
individual correctional facility or unit holding inmates under your jurisdiction is included, even if that facility shares budget
