You are reminded that operational expenses are to be

paid from approved Group I funds. CI/CW and Purchase of Drug
Evidence expenses are to be paid from the Fielq Office
confidential accounts. Approval of your Group I UCO does not.
automatically increase your CI/CW or Purchase of Drug Evidence
accounts. If these accounts do not contain sufficient funding to
support this UCO, your field office must request that the Budget
Unit, CID, enhance the appropriate fiscal year confidential
accounts.
Use of Show and/or Recoverable Funds are limited to the

specified use for which they have been authorized in your Group I
UCO. If approved as part of your UCO proposal, a separate
request must be submitted when those funds are actually needed.
Submit your request for approved Show or Recoverable funds to the
CSU, FD, Room 1394. CSU will coordinate your request with the
appropriate Substantive Unit and the Undercover and Sensitive
Operations Unit (USOU), FBIHQ. Those funds will then be wire
transferred to your field office.
Questions may be addressed to USOU, CID, ext. 3731 or

SENSITIVE CIRCUMSTANCES:
This UCO involves two sensitive circumstances:
1) The UCO is addressing criminal conduct by elected and appointed

executive-level officials in a local governmental agency.
2) b7E
These sensitive circumstances are mitigated by several

factors. There is substantial predication indicating that
businesses in the City of Providence are forced to make illegal
payments in order to conduct their operations. Legitimate
businesses are eliminated from competition because of this
corruption, and in fact many legitimate business do not even
compete because of the corruption. This results in substantial
increased costs to taxpayers.
Corruption addressed through this UCO will result in

effective and efficient government services provided by the city,
and will restore a sense of fairness to the competitive bidding
process. Absent this UCO, the City of Providence will continue

SENSITIVE CIRCUMSTANCES:
This UCO involves two sensitive circumstances:
1) The UCO is addressing criminal conduct by elected and appointed
executive-level officials in a local governmental agency.
b7E
These sensitive circumstances are mitigated by

several factors. This investigation has
determined that businesses in the City of Providence are
forced to make illegal payments in order to conduct their
operations. Legitimate businesses are eliminated from
competition because of this corruption, and in fact many
legitimate business do not even compete because of the
corruption. This results in substantial increased costs to
taxpayers.
While this UCO has identified and developed evidence
on numerous government officials, there is evidence that
others, including the mayor, continue to engage in criminal
activity.
The successful continuation of this UCO will enable the
collection of evidence against these other officials, and
will restore a sense of fairness to the competitive bidding
process. The City of Providence will continue to conduct
"business as
