information. We identified two areas of noncompliance during this inspection cycle for the Men’s
Central Jail:
§ 1065 Exercise and Recreation
During the on-site inspection and review of documentation, the agency was found to be noncompliant
with this regulation due to allowing three hours a week of exercise and recreation time all in one day,
not spread out over a seven-day period as the regulation requires.
§ 1280 Facility Sanitation, Safety, and Maintenance
BSCC staff observed unsanitary conditions while conducting the on-site inspection. The hallways in
front of the cells and the individual cells were cluttered with trash and food. Garbage bags were
overflowing with used food trays.
Title 24, CCR Physical Plant
There were no changes made to the physical plant of any of the facilities and your rated capacity
remains the same Please see the Physical Plant Evaluation for more information.
During the on-site inspection, the following items of noncompliance were identified at the Pitchess
Detention Center-South (PDCS), Pitchess Detention Center-North (PDCN), and the North County
Correctional Facility (NCCF):
§ Sections 1231.2.7 Double Occupancy Cells and 1231.2.8 Dormitories
During their individual dates of inspection, it was noted that the PDCN, PDCS, and the NCCF were
over their facility rated occupancy. By being over their facility rated occupancy, it makes these facilities
noncompliant with these regulations.
Training
According to the most recent Standards and Training for Corrections audit, The Los Angeles County
Sheriff’s Department is currently compliant with all relevant regulations and mandates and mitigating
circumstances if applicable.
Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act (JJDPA) Compliance Monitoring

CORRECTIVE ACTION PLAN
On January 25, 2023, BSCC staff held an Initial Inspection Briefing with your staff. During that briefing,
BSCC staff provided an overview of the biennial inspection and provided technical assistance and best
practices. We found two issues of noncompliance during the onsite inspection requiring your agency to
provide the BSCC with a Corrective Action Plan (CAP). Your agency provided BSCC staff a Corrective
Action Plan (CAP) addressing the issues on March 1, 2023, we will respond to the CAP under separate
cover memorandum.
The Corrective Action Plan stated, for the Title 15 related issues at the Men’s Central Jail, that they will
now conduct recreation time over two days within the seven day period. Line supervisors will also now
conducting random audits of their respective floors to ensure cleanliness.
The CAP for the Title 24 issues at the Pitchess Detention Facilities suggested several different
approaches to reduce the incarcerated population. The approaches included reviewing the incarcerated
population for eligibility in the Electric Monitoring Program, Inmate Work Release Program, and
Weekender Program. The CAP also mentioned reopening the Pitchess Detention Center East Facility’s
newly renovated dorms to shift some of the incarcerated population out of the other facilities that are
experiencing overcrowding.

Note: Board Rated Capacity (BRC) (for the "Old Side") was originally determined by calculating all available air space in
each module (500 cubic feet per inmate). In older part of the jail, each wing, consisting of the main floor and "mezzanine"
contains 130,500 square feet.
The Board of Corrections historically rated the facility at a 5,276. This figure includes an apparent over-count of 40 rated
beds that has been continued over the years, as correcting the error added more confusion than benefit. Prior to the 1998-
2000 inspection, housing unit 1800 was permanently converted to a law library. Since this was a clear modification to the
physical plant, these 40 beds were deducted from the BRC at the 1998-2000 inspection, establishing the BRC at 5,236.
2004-2006 inspection cycle – department staff reported the total number of available beds at 5,861.
2012-2014 inspection cycle – due to litigation (Rutherford case) the court ordered a rated capacity more restrictive than Title
15 and Title 24 regulations. LASD self-rated units 2000 and 3000 at 1,938 usable beds.
2014-2016 inspection cycle – Due to court action and a fluctuating inmate population, beds in many areas have been
removed or replaced with showers improving the conditions of confinement at this facility. Also, historically, not all of the
beds in the "Old Side" had been included in this document. This LASE has been reformatted in an attempt to quantify these
changes and reflect all cells in the Men's Jail compound. These changes have resulted in reducing the RC from 5,108 to
3,529 – a reduction of 1,579 rated beds.
2016-2018 inspection cycle – A re-designation of cells in Unit 1750 G from administrative segregation to discipline beds has
resulted in a reduction of 7 beds from the RC. In addition, Unit 2204 has been converted to storage resulting in an additional
reduction of 10 beds from the RC. Consequently, the RC has been reduced from 3,529 to 3,512 (3,529 – 17 = 3,512).

Note: 2014-2016 inspection cycle – The dorms on the 4th floor have been historically crowded. Up until this inspection
cycle, Dorm 9500 was not listed in the RC due to the extremely large numbers of inmates on this floor. Since the last
inspection cycle, the numbers of inmates and bunks, have been significantly reduced on this floor. (For example, in the
previous inspection cycle, Dorm 9500 contained 445 beds.) Since all of the dorms have reduced their inmate population, the
BSCC elected to include Dorm 9500 in the RC.
MEDICAL HOUSING
Note: Sheltered housing areas for inmates requiring medical services are on three floors of Central Jail. These areas have
not historically been noted on the BOC Living Area Space Evaluation because they are non-rated space. Ten beds in this
area were converted to housing juvenile boys in 2003/2004. Juveniles are no longer held at this facility according to policy,

Note: 2010-2012 inspection cycle – for the purpose of this section in the LASE, we have added all beds for these areas and
have placed them in one section each. The sections identified are section 6000 and 7000, understanding there are
subsections of housing in these areas. These cells have not been rated or measured since the beds are medical housing
(special use beds), and as such are not included in the facility BRC.
2014-2016 inspection cycle – Medical beds were counted on each floor to update the historical numbers.

Note: (2005) At this inspection, we deleted reference to the specific number of dayroom beds, as this changes depending
upon need. Facility staff reports a total of 4,414 available beds, excluding 96 disciplinary and 196 CTC beds in Medical
Services Building. (4/2007) The BRC was changed 2006-2008 inspection cycle to reflect module 231 and 232 as part of the
IRC BRC. A total of 384 beds reduced Twin Towers facility BRC from 2,628 now 2,244.
2014-2016 inspection cycle – The rated capacity of TTCF was increased to 2,484. Module 232 has been transferred from
IRC to TTCF (192 beds) and Module 121 was converted from non-rated disciplinary isolation to rated administrative
segregation (48 beds). (2,244 + 192 + 48 = 2,484.)
2016-2018 inspection cycle -The rated capacity of TTCF was reduced to 2,432. Module 121 was converted back from
administrative segregation to non-rated discipline cells resulting in a loss of 48 beds. Module 132-F has been converted to
contain only single occupancy cells resulting in a loss of 4 beds. The final rated capacity during this inspection cycle is 2,432
(2,484 – 48 – 4 = 2,432)

(BRC).
2014-2016 inspection cycle – Module 121 was converted from disciplinary isolation to administrative segregation adding 48
beds to the RC.
2016-2018 inspection cycle – Module 121 was returned to to non-rated discipline beds.
TOWER 1 – HOUSING
Note: There is an open area that is adjacent to and serves three housing pods in each module. At the 98-00 inspection, this
space was used as multi-purpose space for group programs and that approach continued in subsequent inspections.
Inmates do not have access to it in such a way that it could be considered dayroom.
Housing Pods in Modules 131 and 272 (Tower 2) each consist of dorms with an upper and lower level. Each of the two
levels originally had eight double bunks (16 bed per level or 32 per dorm). The number of bunks increased substantially by
the 98-00 inspection. The original BOC "Living Area Space Evaluation" notes that available space limits the capacity of each
dorm to 27 and that capacity has been continued. Calculations from the county report upper and lower areas as each
having 550 square feet (1100 square feet total). This does not appear to include dayroom space. Available BOC records do
not provide the total square footage.
Modules 132 – 172: Each pod contains one shower, limiting the pod capacity to 20 inmates. There is one fountain and one
toilet in each dayroom, in addition to plumbing fixtures in each cell; thirty-two seats at dayroom tables. Of the 16 cells in
each pod, 12 are 72 square feet and 4 are 100 square feet. Unless otherwise indicated, there are dayroom beds distributed
throughout the pods in each Module. Pods E and F in Modules 152 and 172, a bunk has been removed from cells 4 and 6
to create 4 single-bunk cells.

Note: Historically, this LASE has shown that there are two showers per pod with 32 seats at dayroom tables.
2014-2016 inspection cycle – Module 232 has been transferred from IRC to TTCF (192 beds). Since at least the 2002-2004
inspection cycle, the "Total RC" column for Module 232 has shown 32 beds (16 x 2) for each of the six units (32 x 6 = 192).
However, since the 2008-2010 inspection cycle, the LASE for the IRC has shown the "Total RC" column as 28 beds for each
of the six units. This discrepancy does not affect the current RC of TTCF.

Note: Housing Pods in Modules 131 and 272 (Tower 2) each consist of dorms with an upper and lower level. Each of the
two levels originally had eight double bunks (16 bed per level or 32 per dorm). The number of bunks increased substantially
by the 98-00 inspection. The original BOC "Living Area Space Evaluation" notes that available space limits the capacity of
each dorm to 27 and that capacity has been continued. Calculations from the county report upper and lower areas as each
having 550 square feet (1100 square feet total). This does not appear to include dayroom space. Available BOC records do
not provide the total square footage. 272 Module rated capacity is 162, currently there are 534 beds in this area.
2014-2016 inspection cycle – with the exception of 272 (Inmate Worker Dorm) a significant number of bunks were removed
from all other 272-unit dorms.
2016-2018 inspection cycle – Additional bunks have been removed from this module. This unit has been converted to an
“ADA” and Inmate Worker Module. Each pod has 16 single bunks on the ground level for “accessible beds” (ADA) while
each mezzanine level has 27 beds for inmate workers. The RC remains the same.

Type Standards Cells # Beds RC RC (L x W x H) T U W F S
Note: Regulations limit holding cell capacity to a maximum of 16 inmates. Capacity of several cells is lower than this
maximum due to available seating (18"/inmate). Staging cells are allowed under 1991 regulations and can hold up to 80
inmates, with adequate square footage and plumbing fixtures.
Effective 1/8/05, management of TTCF Modules 231 and 232 was assumed by IRC to provide a bed and temporary housing
for inmates with health care needs to address before processing can be completed. Consequently, 384 beds were deleted
from the TTCF rated capacity and associated with IRC.
2014-2016 inspection cycle – The rated capacity for the IRC has been changed from 336 to 0. For the last several
inspection cycles, the rated capacity for the IRC has been 336. This bed count came from the number of beds shown on the
IRC LASE for Modules 231 (168) and 232 (168). At the time of this inspection, the cells in Module 231 had been converted
to non-rated medical beds (120) used to house inmates requiring intensive mental health services upon booking. (Although
there are some exceptions, these inmates are held in this pod for less than 48 hours.) Additionally, the beds in Module 232
(168) have been transferred to TTCF and removed from this LASE. 336 – 168 – 168 = 0. (Previous LASE's for IRC have
shown conflicting RC information. Since at least the 2002-2004 inspection cycle, the LASE for TTCF has shown 32 beds (16
x 2) in each of the six units in Module 231. However, since the 2008-2010 inspection cycle, the LASE for IRC has shown 28
beds in each of those six units. This discrepancy does not affect the total RC of IRC because Module 231 had been
converted to non-rated medical beds.)

2014-2016 inspection cycle – The Old IRC is located on the ground floor in the rear portion of Men’s Central Jail (MCJ) and
serves as the principle intake reception center for the LASD system prior to the construction of the present IRC. It is used as
a satellite for the current IRC as part of that facility’s system and not that of MCJ. Specifically, this area is used as the
sorting and temporary staging area for all inmates from IRC that are going to court. This area is under the command of the
IRC Captain. This is the first time that this area is included in IRC’s LASE.

Note: Buildings 500 – 900 are housing with buildings 500-800 as dorms, each with an upper and lower tier on each of two
levels. (Building 900 consists of single and double occupancy cells.) The facility was constructed and originally rated under
1980 regulations that allowed "Multiple Occupancy Rooms," but not dorms. This forced the original rating to consider the
upper and lower tiers as separate dorms, each with a maximum capacity of 16 inmates. The terms "dorm" and "multiple
occupancy rooms" have both been used in BOC documentation. At the 1998-2000 inspection, we applied the 1986 Dorm
regulations to these housing units to more closely correspond with the practice of considering each housing area (i.e., 511,
512, etc) a dorm. This also circumvents the problem of the 1980 regulation, which limits Multiple Occupancy Rooms to
Type III and IV facilities and to inmate worker units in other facilities. This change has no impact on Board Rated Capacity
(BRC) or facility operation. Each Dorm (i.e., 511, 512, etc) has 4 toilets, 2 urinals, 4 washbasins, 2 drinking fountains and 2
showers.
BOC records indicate that the dimensions for the bunk/housing areas in buildings 500-700 are 49.0' X 12.0' X 8.6' on the
upper and lower tiers, for a total of 1,176 square feet. In addition, the dayroom space for each dorm is 49.9' X 39.0' X 17.8'
(1,946 square feet). The total dayroom & housing square feet is 3,122. This is sufficient for 37 single-bunked inmates (50
square feet housing + 35 square feet dayroom/inmate). Later 1991 regulations reduce the square footage to 72.5 square
feet per double-bunked inmate (43 inmates); however, there would not be sufficient plumbing fixtures to reach this capacity.
BOC records indicate that the dimensions for the bunk/housing area in Building 800 are 57.3' X 13.2' X 8.7' on the upper
and lower tiers, for a total of 1,513 square feet. In addition, the dayroom space for each housing dorm is 25.7' X 54.0' X
17.9' (1,388 square feet). The total dayroom & housing is 2,901 square feet. This is sufficient for 34 single-bunked inmates
(50 square feet housing + 35 square feet dayroom/inmate). Later 1991 regulations reduce the square footage to 72.5
square feet per double-bunked inmate. This requirement is further reduced to 70 square feet for double bunked inmates
and 65 square feet for triple bunked inmates in 2001 regulations. Based on square footage under 2001 regulations, the
dorms in building 800 could support a double bunked capacity of 41 inmates and, triple bunked, 45 inmates. Plumbing
fixtures would limit the capacity to 40 inmates if BSCC were requested to re-evaluate the Board Rated Capacity. There are
considerably more beds in each dorm.
2016-2018 inspection cycle – Staff has replaced all double bunks with triple bunks. The bunks now line the outside walls of
each dormitory. This has resulted in more dayroom space and much better sight lines between each set of bunks.

At the 2002-2004 inspection, Dorm 320 was converted into classrooms. This change reduced the previous Board Rated
Capacity (BRC) of 996 by 66 beds. Additionally, we dropped the capacity by 4 beds to address the four single cells
discussed below, which had been “carried” in the capacity for a number of years. Consequently, the BRC was reduced from
996 to 926. Facility staff reports that there are 1854 housing beds, in addition to 24 non-rated disciplinary beds. (See note
for Units 362/363.)
Historical note regarding BRC: There were 4 single cells along the main hallway that records indicate received a November
1976 variance for use despite being under-size. They were closed at one time, reopened in 1989 and had been used for
storage for a number of years, with no plans to reopen. They were deleted from this report during the 1998-2000 inspection,
were carried in the BRC because reducing the capacity by that small number was confusing and of little value. As noted
above, they were deleted during the 2002-04 inspection when the 66-bed deduction was also made when Unit 320 was no
longer used for housing.
Dormitories 321-336: BOC file notes indicate a November 11, 1976 variance to allow 66 persons in each of 12 dorms, with a
toilet ratio of 1:9.4 inmates. This was apparently extended to a 13th dorm at a later time. (As of 2001 regulation revisions,
the ratio was changed to 1:10.) There is 6' of urinal in each dorm, in addition to the toilets noted below.
2014-2016 and 2016-2018 inspection cycles – This facility was empty except for one dorm that was being used as a “fire
camp”. It has been used as a “safety valve” where large numbers of inmates can be transferred, usually during a major
disturbance at the originating facility. It is also used for training purposes. This entire facility remains “open” with appropriate
numbers of staff to match the inmate population.

ever begins to approximate Board Rated Capacity, it may become useful to review archive files to determine what really
occurred.
MEDICAL HOUSING
Note: There are no medical beds. Historical files report 3 medical dorms, with 27 beds and a BRC of 24 inmates (22.5 X
26.0 X 12.0). Use of these dorms was discontinued several years ago and they were deleted from the Living Area Space
Evaluation at the 1998-00 inspection. This has no impact on rated capacity, as they were "non-rated" medical beds.
Dorms 320-326 and 331 were open during this inspection 7/2011, MW.

Historical note: Historical note: 1980 regulations do not allow dormitories; "dorms" 41-51 were considered to be separate
spaces, divided by the toilet/shower areas, to create 16-inmate units under the "multiple occupancy room" regulation and a total
rated capacity of 32 inmates.
South Facility has 22 barracks in 7 compounds. Compound A consists of dorms 31-32-33; B: 34-35-36; E: 37-38-39; G: 41
and 42, which have been converted to dining and 40, which was converted to a "processing" dorm; H: 43-44-45; K: 46-47-48;
M: 49-50-51.
Dorms 30-39 are rated under the 1973 regulations, which allowed dormitories to have 40 square feet of sleeping space per
inmate + 25 square feet dayroom (65 square feet). The dimensions below equal 3,920 square feet; however, BOC file notes
also reflect 4,062 square feet per unit. The Board Rated Capacity has historically been based on 4,062/65 square feet = 62
inmates. This rating overlooked insufficient washbasins, which were required at a ratio of 1:8; however, later, less restrictive
2001 regulations changed this ratio to 1:10, essentially bringing the plumbing fixtures into compliance. Plumbing in these
dorms includes 6' urinal trough and regulations allow every 2' to be counted toward the toilet ratio, not to exceed one-third the
total number required.

Notes: 1980 regulations do not allow dormitories; "dorms" 41-51 utilize "pony walls" to create 16-inmate units under what was
then called the "multiple occupancy room" regulation. They operate as dorms and are labeled as such here. "Dorms" 41-51
were considered to be separate spaces, divided by the toilet/shower areas, to create 16-inmate units under the "multiple
occupancy room" regulation and a total rated capacity of 32 inmates.

1980 regulations do not allow dormitories; the "dorms" in this facility utilize "pony walls" to create 16-inmate units under the
"multiple occupancy room" regulation. These are operationally treated as dorms and identified as such here. There are three
16-bed sections per dorm and four dorms per module. There is one dayroom in each Module, with seating for 96. The double
cells in each module are classified as "Administrative Segregation Cells.” The dimensions noted below appear to be for each
16-bed section and do not include dayroom space. Facility staff reports 1600 housing beds.
Note: 2016-2018 inspections cycle: The RC was reduced by (2) in Module 2 due to the conversion of one cell to storage
giving the facility a RC of 830 beds.

1998-2000 inspection cycle – The booking area for the Century Regional Detention Facility (CRDF) was separated from the
detention portion of CRDF resulting in two separate facilities: Century Type I Booking Center (#1530) and CRDF (#1445).
This was done because juveniles were brought into the booking area for photograph and printing, prior to being held in non-
secure detention in the nearby Century Patrol Station Jail. This practice conflicted with statute because, other than minors
adjudicated for adult court under 707.1, WIC 207.1 prohibits minors from entering a Type II jail for any reason.
Prior to separating the Type I Booking Center from the Type II operation, the Board Rated Capacity (BRC) was 1,642. 80
beds were deducted for Modules 1201, 1202, 1203 and 1204 and associated with the Type I area. In addition, Unit 1604
was converted from non-rated discipline beds to housing and Dorms 1701 and 1702 were raised from 60 and 62 beds
respectively, to 64 beds each. These changes added a total of 26 beds for a BRC of 1,588 beds in the Type II operation of
CRDF and 80 beds in the CRDF Type I Booking Center, for a total of 1,668 in the "complex."
The 1999 Division reported that the total bed count was 2,078 beds in the facility complex, including 92 beds in the Type I
Booking Center and 1,986 in the Type II facility. We maintained that bed count through the 2005 inspection.
Effective June 2002, when the Biscailuz Recovery Center closed, CRDF operations were also curtailed due to budget
constraints. Only the Movement Center and Housing Units 3100, 3200, 3300 and 3400 remained operational to house the
former Biscailuz program inmates. We maintained the rated capacity of 1,588 for the entire facility, acknowledging the
Department’s intent to fully reopen the facility.
March 25, 2006 Century Regional Detention Facility fully opened as a female facility.
2014-2016 inspection cycle – Juveniles are no longer booked at CRDF. As a result, at the next inspection cycle (2016-2018)
the LASD Century Type I Booking Center (BSCC # 1530) will cease to exist as a separate facility and the holding and
housing cells will be re-incorporated into CRDF's Physical Plant Evaluation and Living Area Space Evaluation.
Historically, housing 1201, 1202, 1203, 1204, 1301, 1302, 1303, 1304, 1401, 1402 and 1403 were occasionally moved
between the Type I Booking Center and the Type II facility. Up until this inspection cycle, the number of beds for "both
facilities" (80 + 1,588 = 1,668) has remained constant.
Previous inspection cycles have shown that units 1602 and 1603 contained 20 non-rated beds in each unit. These units are
now used for general population inmates resulting in 40 additional rated beds. As a result, the revised rated capacity for
CRDF is 1,708 [1,588 (previous rated capacity of the Type II facility) + 80 (previous rated capacity of the Type I facility) + 40
(from units 1602 and 1603) = 1,708].
Note: The transport/intake and release area of the Century Regional Detention Center (Type II operation); Court Services
had primary responsibility for Cells 9-13 when the Lynwood court was operational. 1982 Title 24 regulations up to current
regulations only allow up to 16 inmates in each holding cells.

2016 – 2018 inspection cycle – The exercise yards in the 1200 and 1300 Modules have been converted to office space. The
exercise area in 1400 has been converted to a sewing area. Consequently, for the inmates housed in these units to receive
their exercise time, they must be moved to another Module’s exercise yard. The exercise yard in Units 2200, 2300 and 2400
have each been subdivided into four exercise areas of approximately 5’ X 17’ each.
