To establish a program of residential substance abuse treatment within 
                            Federal prisons.

    Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the 
United States of America in Congress assembled,

SECTION 1. SUBSTANCE ABUSE TREATMENT IN FEDERAL PRISONS.

    Section 3621 of title 18, United States Code, is amended--
            (1) in the last sentence of subsection (b), by striking ``, 
        to the extent practicable,''; and
            (2) by adding at the end the following new subsection:
    ``(e) Substance Abuse Treatment.--
            ``(1) Phase-in.--In order to carry out the requirement of 
        the last sentence of subsection (b) of this section, that every 
        prisoner with a substance abuse problem have the opportunity to 
        participate in appropriate substance abuse treatment, the 
        Bureau of Prisons shall provide substance abuse treatment--
                    ``(A) for not less than 50 percent of eligible 
                prisoners by the end of fiscal year 1995, with priority 
                for such treatment accorded based on an eligible 
                prisoner's proximity to release date;
                    ``(B) for not less than 75 percent of eligible 
                prisoners by the end of fiscal year 1996, with priority 
                for such treatment accorded based on an eligible 
                prisoner's proximity to release date; and
                    ``(C) for all eligible prisoners by the end of 
                fiscal year 1997 and thereafter, with priority for such 
                treatment accorded based on an eligible prisoner's 
                proximity to release date.
            ``(2) Incentive for prisoners' successful completion of 
        treatment program.--
                    ``(A) Generally.--Any prisoner who, in the judgment 
                of the Director of the Bureau of Prisons, has 
                successfully completed a program of residential 
                substance abuse treatment provide under paragraph (1) 
                of this subsection, shall remain in the custody of the 
                Bureau for such time (as limited by subparagraph (B) of 
                this paragraph) and under such conditions, as the 
                Bureau deems appropriate. If the conditions of 
                confinement are different from those the prisoner would 
                have experienced absent the successful completion of 
                the treatment, the Bureau shall periodically test the 
                prisoner for substance abuse and discontinue such 
                conditions on determining that substance abuse has 
                recurred.
                    ``(B) Period of custody.--The period the prisoner 
                remains in custody after successfully completing a 
                treatment program shall not exceed the prison term the 
                law would otherwise require such prisoner to serve, but 
                may not be less than such term minus one year.
            ``(3) Report.--The Bureau of Prisons shall transmit to the 
        Committees on the Judiciary of the Senate and the House of 
        Representatives on January 1, 1995, and on January 1 of each 
        year thereafter, a report. Such report shall contain--
                    ``(A) a detailed quantitative and qualitative 
                description of each substance abuse treatment program, 
                residential or not, operated by the Bureau;
                    ``(B) a full explanation of how eligibility for 
                such programs is determined, with complete information 
                on what proportion of prisoners with substance abuse 
                problems are eligible, and
                    ``(C) a complete statement of to what extent the 
                Bureau has achieved compliance with the requirements of 
                this title.
            ``(4) Authorization of appropriations.--There are 
        authorized to be appropriated in each fiscal year such sums as 
        may be necessary to carry out this subsection.
            ``(5) Definitions.--As used in this subsection--
                    ``(A) the term `residential substance abuse 
                treatment' means a course of individual and group 
                activities, lasting between 6 and 12 months, in 
                residential treatment facilities set forth from the 
                general prison population--
                            ``(i) directed at the substance abuse 
                        problems of the prisoner; and
                            ``(ii) intended to develop the prisoner's 
                        cognitive, behavorial, social, vocational, and 
                        other skills so as to solve the prisoner's 
                        substance abuse and related problems; and
                    ``(B) the term `eligible prisoner' means a prisoner 
                who is--
                            ``(i) determined by the Bureau of Prisons 
                        to have a substance abuse problem; and
                            ``(ii) willing to participate in a 
                        residential substance abuse treatment 
                        program.''.

            Passed the House of Representatives November 3, 1993.
