Amends the Federal criminal code to require the U.S. Marshals Service, before entering into a contract with a private entity for the detention of Federal prisoners, to: (1) designate districts that need additional private detention facilities based on the number of Federal detainees in the district and the availability of Federal, State, and local government detention facilities; and (2) provide for public comment on the proposed contract.
Requires that, in order to be eligible for such a contract, a private entity: (1) be located in a district designated as needing additional Federal detention facilities; (2) meet the standards of the American Correctional Association; (3) comply with all applicable State and local laws and regulations; (4) have approved fire, security, escape, and riot plans; and (5) comply with any other regulations that the Marshals Service deems appropriate.
