This paper explains the fraud and abuse laws as they are being enforced in December 1997.The American College of Physicians recognizes the onerous burden that these laws and their enforcement have on practicing internists. These laws have created an atmosphere in which physicians feel that almost all of their behavior is suspect. In particular, many physicians believe that inadvertent billing and coding errors made in the context of a complex system are being treated as fraud. For this reason, the College will work with the American Society of Internal Medicine, the American Medical Association, and other medical organizations to develop legislative and regulatory proposals that will 1) reduce unnecessary burdens for physicians who do not engage in illegal activities and 2) prevent and punish fraud.
Fraud and abuse is an umbrella term that applies to a series of statutes and regulations designed to prevent government health programs from paying excessive and inappropriate claims.In recent years, federal and state enforcement activities have been strengthened as governments have increasingly seen reduction of health care fraud as a way to rein in spending and an opportunity to reduce "waste" in government programs. A 1997 report from the Department of Health and Human Services Office of the Inspector General concluded that in fiscal year 1996, net overpayments by Medicare totaled about $23.2 billion. Although the Office of the Inspector General could not identify how much of the overpayment was due to fraud, the report has been used to justify increased scrutiny of health care providers. This trend will continue, and enforcement of the fraud and abuse laws will increase, leaving physicians vulnerable to various charges and investigations.
This paper seeks only to explain the current rules and provide general guidance for internists.It does not explain all of the details of each fraud and abuse statute or regulation, and it should not be considered legal advice. Rather, it uses both narrative and case examples to highlight important issues and educate physicians about potential problems. Because this area of law is in flux and physicians need the most up-to-date information available, physicians should contact their own attorneys before participating in activities that may be governed by the fraud and abuse laws. Updated information about fraud and abuse will appear in ACP Observer and on the American College of Physicians World Wide Web site.
Unlawful Kickbacks: It is illegal to "solicit, pay, offer, or receive any remuneration, in cash or in kind, for the referral or to induce the referral of a patient, or for ordering, providing, recommending or arranging for the provision of any service" payable by federal health care programs. Examples of prohibited physician behavior are routinely waiving deductibles and copayments for Medicare patients and obtaining free office space or equipment at a hospital where the physician has admitting privileges.The statute and regulations provide exceptions to the general prohibitions that govern in many situations, including risk-sharing arrangements. Physicians can request advisory opinions from federal regulators to determine the legality of their activities. Information on obtaining advisory opinions can be found at the Office of the Inspector General's Web site.Self-Referral Prohibitions: The law establishes two fundamental prohibitions on referral behavior. A physician may not refer a Medicare patient for a "designated service" to an entity with which he or she has a financial relationship, and the referred-to entity may not submit a claim for the service unless the transaction meets one of the statute's exceptions. The term "financial relationship" is unlimited and includes compensation, investment, and direct and indirect relationships.The law describes two sets of exceptions:relationships that generally require investment at fair market value and relationships that involve members of group practices. Physicians can seek advisory opinions from the Health Care Financing Administration (HCFA) about their particular circumstances. Information on obtaining an advisory opinion is available from the HCFA web site.
False Claims: Physicians are vulnerable to criminal charges and civil penalties if they engage in a pattern or practice of presenting claims that they know or should know will lead to greater payments than are appropriate or if they engage in a pattern or practice of submitting claims that they know or should know are for services that were not medically necessary. Reckless disregard for the accuracy of claims filed or an attempt to remain ignorant of billing requirements will be considered a violation. In addition, physicians who have been audited by the Office of the Inspector General report that even good faith errors are viewed with suspicion by the enforcement agencies and can lead to sanctions. Behaviors likely to raise concern include reporting improper diagnosis or procedure codes to maximize reimbursement, double billing, claiming costs for noncovered services, providing questionable documentation for the medical necessity of professional services, and misrepresenting information to obtain payments.Because the penalties for fraud and abuse violations are so onerous, physicians should develop a process for internal review to ensure compliance with the law and proper billing.This will enable physicians to identify problems and determine appropriate strategies for correction. It will also help persuade the government that any identified problems are isolated and inadvertent errors rather than evidence of fraud. Guidance on billing is available from the HCFA Web site.
Penalties: The stakes are high for physicians involved in fraud and abuse investigations. Government prosecutors can seek to exclude physicians from Medicare, Medicaid, or other federal health programs, can seek criminal sanctions, or can try to impose large civil monetary penalties.

Kessler Receives Huge Offer To Face Magee in Oct/Nov
By Per Ake Persson
Danish Hall of Fame promoter Mogens Palle has offered Mikkel Kessler (45-2, 34KOs) $1 million USD net plus $50,000 USD in training expenses to fight WBA interim-super middleweight champion Brian Magee (36-4-1, 25KOs) in late October or early November.
At stake will be the WBA regular title left vacant by Karoly Balzsay, who is sidedlined with injuries.
Team Magee have been given permission from the WBA to choose any opponent from the Top 15 in the current ratings. Kessler fought his last fight at light heavyweight but came in just above the super middleweight limit and should be able to make 168 without any problems.

REVIEW SNAPSHOT®by PowerReviews
Castle Rock Zinfandel
Reviewed by 1 customer
Comments about Castle Rock Zinfandel:
This is one of the tastiest and best deals around. The vintage of Castle Rock Zinfandel that my local Cost Plus carries is a 2011 Lodi Zinfandel. It was $7.99/bottle when I bought it, and it's jammy, fruit forward, nicely full-bodied and balanced, without the mineral and pepper notes you sometimes get. It tastes like one of the lower end Dry Creek Valley Zins from Mazzocco, and those are significantly pricier. I'm heading back this week to buy a couple of cases. The people I have enjoyed this wine with are also blown away by how tasty it is for the price point. That said, none of us cared for Castle Rock's Pinot Noir - this review is for the Zinfandel only.

Super Skinny Is Super Great!!!I am an African American female with medium to soft textured hair. I think that this product is FABULOUS. I tried this product after it had been recommended by an associate in a retail store. So, I decided to give it a try. I used the products on my ends and throughout my hair after blowdrying and before flat ironing. It left my hair feeling amazingly soft, shiny, and smooth. I love the stuff and it wasnt to heavy for my hair (though I do suggest using it lightly as I imagine that overuse could leave the hair heavy). Two words: IM SOLD!!!!Sep 27, 2006Teesha / California

It's OkI purchased this product a week ago and I have to say that it does make your hair soft and it smells great, but it does not reduce any frizz, infact it makes my straight hair kink up and wavy. overall it is a great product but not worth the money.Sep 21, 2006Stacey / Conway, SC

Works Greatmy hair stylist used this on my hair, and i know how my hair always feels great after i get it done, but it felt amazing. So, after a couple of days i realized i couldnt live with out the stuff she put in my hair, so i went back asking what it was and she told me that it had to be the super skinny serum. this stuff works wonders and it lasts a long time too because you only use one pump, and thats all you really need.Sep 13, 2006Anonymous / Indiana

On a night that promised a Pittsburgh Steelers blowout win over the Kansas City Chiefs and the offensive struggles by former Pitt Panther Tyler Palko and his offense, only one of those things happened.
Reminiscent to an episode of South Park where both teams are trying to lose a softball game to avoid the playoffs, the Steelers played poorly enough to lose, much like an offense of Cartman, Kenny and Stan. The Chiefs were like the team that was "so good that they were simply batting themselves on purpose," hitting baseballs right into the gloves of the opposing team, despite the boys' best efforts to move them. Sadly, in this case, those "baseballs" were footballs and the "gloves" were Steelers defenders.
Also, in this game, the "team so good they could bat themselves out" was just a bad football team with a quarterback in over his head.
The Chiefs defense held strong as the Pittsburgh offense played like "Men of Still," but the final score saw a stressful 13-9 outcome favoring the Steel City. In reality, the Pittsburgh success could be more aptly described as not losing than actually winning.
After starting the game with an aggressive no-huddle approach that yielded the first of three K.C. field goals, the Chiefs' success was short-lived. Palko was overwhelmed for the second straight week, committing key turnovers that led to nearly all of Pittsburgh's anemic offensive output.
Ill-timed penalties and turnovers were nearly damning to the Pittsburgh cause in a must-win game, including a poorly thrown interception into coverage by Ben Roethlisberger. Despite opportunities to take and extend the lead, the Steelers allowed the struggling Chiefs to remain within striking distance, creating tension in the final minutes.
An evening of aggravation in the Steel City ended with the desired result anyway, as Palko's third interception snuffed out any chance of a Kansas City upset.
Here are eight observations that Steelers fans can take from the pivotal, albeit underwhelming, win at Arrowhead Stadium.

- - Very quick question! (http://www.snowboardingforum.com/bindings/63050-very-quick-question.html)
Very quick question!
Would be very grateful for any advice on the following:
I have an 09/10 Lib Dark Series 158. Currently I have 2006 Burton CO2s on it. Should I:
a) leave it as is
b) get some 2012/13 Union Contact pros for better board flex, cushioning and softer flex
c)wait for 2014 unions next year.
I ride all mountain and park. Have bindings come a long way since '06? and is there a lot to be gained for buying some new ones. my burtons are working fine but am I missing out?
Many thanks for any opinions/info!
The dark seriers is a stiff board, you want stiffer bindings to drive it, keep the c02. Soft bindings on a stiff board is unresponcive
thanks for the help walove

Vote in Winhall is tonightApril 02,2013Vote in Winhall is set for tonight
WINHALL There will be a special meeting today at 7 p.m. where voters will be asked to approve the purchase by the Mountain School of its buildings and grounds from the Winhall school district and the town of Winhall.
The vote at the meeting, which is at the school, will be done from the floor. The two questions will ask whether voters will approve the sale of the building, from the school district to the Mountain School, and whether voters will approve the sale of the ground, from the town to the Mountain School. If both questions are not approved the sale will not take place.
The Mountain School is an independent school, serving students from pre-kindergarten through eighth grade. It uses the site and building of Winhalls former public school and has been open for 15 years.
School officials say they want to buy their site and building now so they can control their own destiny. Charles Scranton, chair of the Mountain Schools board of trustees said the school is looking at expansion plans but cant move forward while they are leasing their own facilities.
If the sale is approved, Mountain School officials have promised that they will fund any expansion through private philanthropy, and not tuition, that tuition will not increase more than 3 percent a year for the next three years and that the building will still be used as a public space for events like town meeting.
Scranton and Daren Houck, head of the Mountain School, will be at tonights meeting to answer questions.MORE IN This Just InMONTPELIER A pending deal between the state and federal governments will give a big boost to...

Watching Soda perform since going public I understand where the message board is coming from. The anticipation of a Soda a quick downturn then a climb . This time my gut is telling me this qtr. maybe will react a little different. As everyone is aware Soda follows closely to the PE ratio of GMCR. Currently GMCR is running around 28+ . This qtr Soda is trailing GMCR , usually it's the other way around and then Soda adjusts. Second the anticipation of the US market growth, a plus, will be close to the US investor which will be contra to the KO/PEP soda non=growth. Third and this is an assumption on my part Soda will announce some new country expansion and/or add't partnership , and kill the rumors on looking for a buyout suitor. With that said we may not see a quick climb to the 77 but we may see a gradual climb . My take. Good luck everyone.
Sentiment: Strong Buy
can't understand if NFLX and FB can run PE's around 600 why a growing company like SODA can't move ahead on speculation...there are most likely many more soda drinkers across the world than NFLX users
You have to be in it to win it. I have no worries whatsoever about the long-term outcome of the business. FB and NFLX are established disruptors. Soda is getting there albeit more slowly but with better margins. This Fall will be the season of Sodastream in the US.
Regarding a major announcement, if Sodastream were to announce that they are enerting agreements with all the major supermarket chains in the U.S that would be a game changer. Supermarkets have two aisles dedicated to sodas of all types. If Sodastrean can get shelf space with these major chains that would raise eyebrows becuase it would show future growth potential. Whether the chains would permit sales of the machine unit I am not certain since small kitchen appliances are usually sold at retail outlets. To penetrate the supermakets would require an enormouns manufactuing capaity and distribution. If this were to happen the stock would soar.
Good call about looking for a buyout suitor. I don't know if it makes sense logistically since I haven't done any diligence but from an objective standpoint, a buyout makes sense for this type of product.

It is entirely plausible that desktop computers will be irrelevant in three years. As the power of computing increases and notebooks and smartphones can perform the same tasks as a desktop computers (with similar speed and performance), the need for a desktop computer will diminish.
Most of the software that will be in demand must be in the form of downloadable applications and not executable software programs. The most common type of hardware in demand will most likely be small and extremely portable.

Laugh Out Loud's The Improvettes
The Laugh Out Loud "Improvettes" are an all-female improv troupe that serves up fast and funny improv shows based on audience suggestion. Scenes, songs and games deliver a customized comedy event to your campus! This "Whose Line is It Anyway" style show, is a one of a kind experience created by YOU!
College Entertainment & Workshops
Through hilarious improv, custom sketches, or a blend of both we deliver memorable events that have schools asking us back to repeat success.
* Welcome Week
* Family Weekend
* Alumni Events
* Sports Banquets
* Special Dinners
* Awards Ceremonies
* Staff/Organizational Meetings
* Kickoff Events
* That one weekend where nothing else is going on
Look Like a Genius
We understand all colleges and universities have a variety of events throughout the year. From New Student Orientation to Activities Board Events to that day Dave showed you how to "wash" your clothes with club soda and aerosol deodorant. Laugh Out Loud can facilitate these events and deliver sharp, clean comedy that will exceed your expectations and leave you looking like a program planning genius who NEVER lived in his/her parents basement, not even for a day.
Improv Shows: Funny
Our professional improvisers can tailor the show to hit home with your crowd. We focus on campus life by dropping in bits of information you provide us in advance, getting the crowd to shout out suggestions or even calling audience members up on stage to play with us.
Custom Sketch Shows: Funnier
We can further customize our entertainment by adding in pre-written sketches based on your school. Comedic scenes about college life and anxieties, or important issues and policies can be mixed in to provide unforgettable entertainment that is also informative. If you're not careful you might learn something while having a good time.
RA & Student Workshops
Individually we are teachers, commercial actors, stand-up comedians, writers, directors and respected improv instructors. Together we are Laugh Out Loud. At one point we all tried to turn around and not face the real world. Actually, Dave tried to convince us, but it turns out his folks place wasn't nearly big enough to accommodate us all. Instead, we put our talents together to develop workshops for groups of RA's and students to use improv comedy and the rules inherent within the creative arts.
* Get students on their feet
* Help students relate and network
* Ruin any chance they have of getting a date
* Inspire creativity
* Assure fast & efficient communication

Compton shines again after Dewan heroics
Follow England's tour of India on ecb.co.uk - click here for all the latest news, exclusive interviews, video highlights and match reports
Nick Compton strengthened his claims to be Alastair Cook's opening partner for the first Test with India as runs flowed freely once more in England's warm-up fixture against Haryana.
On an ultra-flat surface at the Sardar Patel B Ground in Ahmedabad, the tourists were made to work hard for their wickets as Haryana replied to 521 all out with 334.
Opener Rahul Dewan carried his bat for a near eight-hour 143, before Compton and Jonathan Trott followed his lead by guiding England to 118 without loss in their second innings and a lead of 305 heading into the final day.
Having followed up his first-innings 74 with 54 not out, Compton will surely have gained further confidence.
With captain Alastair Cook having already enjoyed two substantial stays at the crease, it was Trott who partnered the Somerset batsman at the top of the order. England's Test number three closed on 61, he and Compton having progressed with a degree of comfort against a modest attack.
The latter's big stride in forward defence, and off-drive, is already a familiar sight after two weeks on tour and his initial struggles - Compton made nought and one in his first two innings in India - are becoming happily distant memories.
Under cloudless skies, he helped put England in position to bat on for perhaps half-a-session tomorrow, before captain Cook judges the time is right to again set about the tougher task of taking opposition wickets.
England certainly did not have things their own way in the field as Dewan, his patience and skill never wavering, continued remorselessly.
The Haryana opener edged short and wide of the slips more than once but mostly presented a broad bat in a 315-ball stay.
As England's stamina underwent an extreme yet appropriate test, for the challenges to come in a four-Test series, Compton floored one straightforward chance - and Matt Prior, back on duty after yesterday's stomach upset, was also short of his best.
Tim Bresnan, who finished with 3-66, got more than most out of the surface and there were three wickets too for Stuart Meaker, but even they could not shift Dewan.
Reflecting on his worthy efforts, Meaker - called up from the England Performance Programme as cover for Steven Finn - said: "I certainly haven't done myself any harm by taking a few wickets. It's a great chance for me personally to show the guys what I've got.
"I could come here, play a game, take a few wickets and then perhaps get sent back to the EPP, but I look at it more long-term, a great chance for me to show the new Test captain I can perform in these conditions. That will bode well for a future Test call."
Pressed on Finn's chances of being fit for the first Test, Meaker added: "He's getting closer and closer to being ready."
Bresnan impressed as England's most likely wicket-taker yesterday, and got them under way again today when he had Sandeep Singh pushing tentatively forward and edging low to Cook at slip.
The skipper was in the firing line three more times before lunch. But the ball evaded his grasp when Amit Mishra twice edged past slip and Dewan, on 87, did likewise off Jonathan Trott - a rare false shot in a compact and controlled tour de force.
Mishra was gone relatively soon anyway, turned round by Meaker and caught behind to give the Surrey seamer his maiden first-class wicket for England.
Yet Dewan remained to complete his sixth first-class hundred with a cut for his 14th four - earning the polite applause of the bowler, Monty Panesar, in acknowledgment.
Meaker subsequently got through Jayant Yadav's defences and then had Amit Vashisht dropped on four by Prior, diving down the leg side.
Vashisht enjoyed more fortune when Compton failed to accept a simple catch at point off Graham Onions, but the error cost only five runs as Samit Patel got his man lbw pushing forward.
Dewan was then joined in a ninth-wicket stand of 62 by Chanderpal Saini, the number 10 belying the fact he was playing in only his second first-class match at the age of 25 after a debut just last week.
Meaker eventually had Saini lbw to claim his third scalp, before last man Sanjay Budhwar was caught in the gully off Kevin Pietersen for nought.
There was still time for England to push for a morale-boosting win, all the more so after the unbroken century opening stand which followed.

Lindsay String Quartet (aka The Lindsays)
~ Group
The Lindsay String Quartet (or The Lindsays) was a British string quartet from 1965 to 2005.
The quartet first performed at the Royal Academy of Music in 1965 to compete for a prize and set out to make the string quartets of Bartók and Beethoven the centre of their repertoire. In 1967, the quartet was appointed to be Leverhulme Scholars at Keele University, and in 1970, it changed its name from the Cropper to the Lindsay String Quartet, naming itself after Lord Lindsay, the founder of Keele University. 1971 brought a change in second violin to Ronald Birks. The quartet gained a Gramophone Award for the Late Beethoven Quartets in 1984. Roger Bigley left the quartet in 1985 to be replaced by Robin Ireland. Bigley then became assistant principal viola of the BBC Philharmonic orchestra before becoming assistant head of strings at the RNCM.
In 1974, they became Quartet-in-Residence at Sheffield University and five years later held a similar position at Manchester University, where they performed a regular concert season, directed seminars, and coached chamber ensembles. The quartet presented festivals each year at the Studio Theatre in the Crucible Theatre, Sheffield, which featured many famous local and international musicians, and travelled widely throughout the world.
In 2005, after 39 years, the quartet announced their intended retirement the following year. They then performed a very successful series of farewell concerts throughout the world, culminating in four final concerts in their home town of Sheffield in July 2005. Individual members afterwards pursued separate musical ideas.
The quartet have produced an extensive list of recordings, including a highly acclaimed Beethoven cycle, and substantial parts of the Haydn, Mozart, Schubert and Dvorak repertoires.
Leader Peter Cropper (19 November 1945 – 29 May 2015) was the founding Artistic Director of Music in the Round, a charitable organisation he founded in the 1980s, that promotes chamber music concerts in Sheffield and nationally. The Lindsays formed the core of Music in the Round's activity for over twenty years, until their retirement. Cropper died suddenly in 2015 aged 69.

WASHINGTON - U.S. Housing and Urban Development Secretary Shaun Donovan today awarded $6.3 million to eight Tribal colleges and universities (TCUs) to help build, renovate, expand and equip their own facilities, and to expand the role of TCUs into the community through the provision of needed services such as health programs, job training, and economic development activities. The funding announced today is provided through HUD's Tribal Colleges and Universities Program (TCUP).
"These institutions of higher learning are investing in building minds as well as their local communities," said Donovan. "HUD is working with these colleges and universities to help enhance their learning environments as they devote themselves to shaping the next generation of leaders who will benefit from and build on what we do today."

Tribal Colleges and Universities Program Summaries
Diné College - $700,000
Diné College (FPCC) intends to use its Tribal Colleges and Universities Program (TCUP) grant to engage in pre-construction and construction activities associated with a new residential housing unit for students with dependents. This new student/family residence will be located on the main campus and will be approximately 30,000 square foot.
White Earth Tribal and Community College - $800,000
White Earth Tribal and Community College (WETCC) intends to use its Tribal Colleges and Universities Program (TCUP) grant to construct a cultural learning center. The college needs to provide a facility where college staff can offer student services such as orientation, student assembly, cultural ceremonies, large group lectures, and student workshops at one location. The center also will serve the community by providing a facility where WETCC can offer community activities, from lecture series to theatrics to community workshops in health, and other social concerns, or for any of a wide spectrum of activities for large groups such as training and workshops on workforce development, entrepreneurship, and community development.
Salish Kootenai College - $800,000
Salish Kootenai College (SKC) intends to use its Tribal Colleges and Universities Program (TCUP) grant to construct a teacher education building. In only 4 years, SKC teacher education has grown from one- to-three bachelor's degrees, four- to-nine faculty positions, and 52 to 246 students. By 2012, the college anticipates hiring two additional faculty members to meet the projected enrollment of 300 students. The project will serve the 7,739 low- and moderate-income Native American community members of the Flathead Indian Reservation.
Stone Child College - $800,000
Stone Child College (SCC) intends to use its Tribal Colleges and Universities Program (TCUP) grant to implement its Capacity Enhancement and Rehabilitation project. This project will benefit primarily low- and very-low-income American Indian students, families, and children on the Rocky Boy's Indian Reservation through the construction or rehabilitation of several facilities. These efforts will address the current and pressing need to offer culturally appropriate, socially relevant, high-quality education and services to the Chippewa Cree Tribal members, including their children, on Rocky Boy's Indian Reservation.
Fort Peck Community College - $800,000
Fort Peck Community College (FPCC) intends to use its Tribal Colleges and Universities Program (TCUP) grant to construct a combined library, information technology, and community learning center. Expansion and construction of this campus facility has been a goal in FPCC's long-range plan, as the current library, learning center, and computer labs at FPCC's main campus in Poplar, Montana, are too small for the increasing usage by the 500 FPCC students, primary and secondary school students, and community members. The facility will address the absence of adequate educational research and technological communication opportunities found in isolated, low-income communities. This facility will enhance student, faculty, staff, and the reservation community's access to both educational and community service opportunities by providing library services, information technology access, Tribal archival documents, and learning space.
Fort Berthold Community College - $800,000
Fort Berthold Community College intends to use its Tribal Colleges and Universities Program (TCUP) grant to: reshingle the roofs of Phase I and Phase II college construction projects; renovate the business office; and construct a four-plex faculty housing unit. The target population is the students of the Fort Berthold Community College and advanced degree faculty as well as the population of the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation. Fort Berthold hopes that this project will provide both enhanced learning environments and service delivery leading to improved graduation rates, retention rates, course completion rates and higher transfer rates, as well as increased student enrollment. In addition, the college will provide a sustainable community by renovating and constructing facilities that are in accordance with green and healthy design principles.
Sitting Bull College - $800,000
Sitting Bull College (SBC) intends to use its Tribal Colleges and Universities Program (TCUP) grant for its efficiency apartments project, which will consist of a 5,000-square-foot structure that will house three efficiency units for females and three for males. Each unit will house four students for a total number of 24. The master plan for the college has been developed in phases. In 1998, with the purchase of 160 acres of land, building the new campus began. To date, the college has raised $22 million of an ambitious $40 million campaign to construct its new campus on a hill overlooking the Missouri River, home to native people for thousands of years.
Northwest Indian College - $800,000
Northwest Indian College (NWIC) intends to use its Tribal Colleges and Universities Program (TCUP) grant to build a new NWIC library/information services (IS) center. The new library, which will replace the campus's cramped current structure that was built in the 1930s, will allow the college to better serve all NWIC students, faculty, and staff. The IS center will house the college's technology "brain," housing the servers and other electronic equipment needed to maintain a modern college campus. This new library/IS center will become part of NWIC's a multi-year, community-wide master planning process to improve its entire campus. In 2006, NWIC initiated a $40.2 million campaign to build a new campus. More than $30.5 million has been raised and six new buildings have been completed. Construction of five others, including the library/IS center, will begin at varying times within the next six months to three years. While approximately 75 percent of users of the new library will be NWIC students, faculty, and staff, the facility will also serve Lummi Nation community members. This and all other new facilities are being designed and constructed using universal design features.
