Before BEEZER, THOMAS, and W. FLETCHER, Circuit Judges.


THOMAS, Circuit Judge.

We consider in this appeal whether the Bureau of Prisons ("Bureau") violated the Administrative Procedure Act ("APA") in adopting an interim regulation pertaining to an early release incentive program for federal prisoners who had successfully completed a substance abuse program. We conclude that the district court correctly held that the Bureau violated the APA, and that the petitioners were entitled to relief.
