SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION
28 CFR part 505 allows for assessment and collection of a fee to cover the average cost of incarceration for Federal inmates. We calculate this fee by dividing the number representing Bureau facilities' monetary obligation (excluding activation costs) by the number of inmatedays incurred for the preceding fiscal year, and then by multiplying the quotient by 365.
