BOP Program Statement 5140.36 § 2
SUMMARY OF CHANGES. This Program Statement has been revised
to provide annual discretionary authority to Wardens to allow an
additional Lump Sum Award for “old law” inmates with projected
release dates during the period of December 11 through January 2.
Previously, an Operations Memorandum was issued annually to
convey this discretionary authority to Wardens.
