Authority

    This action is authorized under the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe

(1994).

Background

    The National Institute of Justice (NIJ) is expanding its Arrestee 
Drug Abuse Monitoring (ADAM) program by enrolling 15 new sites in 
Fiscal Year 2000. The ADAM system consists of 35 sites with an expected 
total of 75 sites by FY 2001. Under this solicitation municipalities 
can apply to be added to the ADAM network. Eligible municipalities have 
been determined based on population size, or include the largest city 
in States with smaller populations. NIJ will select 15 new sites with 
an expectation that these municipalities will begin operating as ADAM 
sites during FY 2000, subject to the upcoming Congressional budget 
appropriations. Sites not selected in FY 2000 will continue to be 
eligible for enrollment in the subsequent year until the anticipated 
total of 75 ADAM sites has been reached. This solicitation is 
applicable only to the eligible municipalities who wish to apply for 
one of the 15 new ADAM sites to be added during FY 2000.
    After new sites have been selected, NIJ will issue a separate 
solicitation for parties interested in receiving funds to manage and 
operate ADAM in the selected municipalities. Through this to-be-
released solicitation, local data collection teams will compete against 
each other for the funding to manage data collection in the 15 new ADAM 
sites.
