Other resources that describe bypassing Congress that I know of are cited below.

Then in February 2007 came a stunning revelation: the BOP had not only abandoned the rule-making process; it had apparently bypassed it altogether by opening a prison unit in December 2006 in which all the inmates were subject to communications restrictions almost exactly like those described in the proposed rule.

It appears that there are several online sources that confirm the BOP bypassed the normal oversight rules of Congress to create the CMUs.  I found these by searching “CMU prison Congress funding” but I am sure there are other sources as well.
