        I believe CASAS was designed for a population whose first language is English,
        and not an ESL population.  Can anyone confirm this?

I don't think so.  We always use CASAS as one of our assessment tools for our ESL classes.  It is my understanding that CASAS is intended for ESL assessment.  Correct me if I'm wrong.
