NCR Correctional Facility

The NCR Correctional Facility (NCRCF) is an ex-prison located south-east of Goodsprings.

Background
The NCR Correctional Facility is the dominant location of the central Mojave Wasteland. In the distant past, it was the Jean Conservancy, a low-security all-female prison. Under recent NCR control, it was used to house prisoners on work release. The prisoners worked the railroad parallel to the Long 15 under NCR trooper supervision, maintaining the vital land link between the Boneyard and New Vegas. Eventually, prison guards (NCR troopers) were pulled away to run Colorado River border patrol. When the guard staff was low, the prisoners executed a daring and violent escape.

Layout
The prison has only one entrance, and it is guarded by a Powder Ganger named Dawes. Snipers form an effective perimeter around the facility. Unlike Powder Gang camps found elsewhere, the Powder Gangers here are not hostile towards the player unless he has established a negative reputation with them. Should you approach Dawes in disguise, he will notice that you are not an actual Powder Ganger, and tell you so. However, he will continue in casual dialog as long as you have good reputation with the gang. He can unlock the door for you at the price of 100 caps; pickpocket the key from him to avoid the fee.

A second entrance, however, will be opened during the New California Republic assault at the end of the Powder Gangers' quest line. This door is situated between the lookout tower and the main entrance building.

Upon entering the facility, you will find yourself in a lounge-like area with tables, a desk, a first-aid box and a counter with a broken terminal on it. There is also a fridge, a Sunset Sarsaparilla vending machine, and a Nuka-Cola vending machine. There is also a Powder Ganger wearing a guard uniform standing by the door. During the same scenario as above, it is confirmed that he will propose a truce to you, in which you stay away from the gang outposts and the gang leaves you alone. However, after hearing his offer, choosing to ignore it will not provoke any altercation.

There will be a man sitting at one of the tables named Meyers. He is a mild-mannered ex-sheriff who will engage in conversation with you. He is not a Powder Ganger, and says he is only staying there to serve out his sentence out of respect to the NCR. He will not attack you if you kill any of the Powder Gangers.

Background
See: NCR Correctional Facility Uprising for more information.

NCRCF was under the control of Nathan the warden, and was having many of its troops meant for guarding the prisoners transferred to Hoover Dam to protect it from Caesar's Legion. But too many troops were being transferred really spreading the staff thin making it hard to keep the prisoners in line, thus causing riot, started by Samuel Cooke, letting the prisoners completely take over NCRCF without much hassle.
