2020-2022 BIENNIAL INSPECTION LOS ANGELES POLICE DEPARTMENT TYPE I
FACILITIES, 6031 PC & 209 WIC(c)
Dear Chief Moore,
On December 14-15, 2022, staff of the Board of State and Community Corrections (BSCC)
conducted the biennial inspection of your agency’s Type I Jail Facilities.
2341 Metro. Det. Center 2361 Harbor Jail 2380 Valley Jail (Van Nuys)
2460 Hollywood Division 2501 77th St. Division 2560 Pacific Division
Pursuant to Penal Code Section 6031, this inspection was performed to determine compliance
with the Minimum Standards for Local Detention Facilities as outlined in Titles 15 and 24,
California Code of Regulations (CCR). In addition, BSCC staff conducted compliance monitoring
pursuant to Welfare and Institutions Code Section 209(f) for the federal Juvenile Justice and
Delinquency Prevention Act (JJDPA).
The complete BSCC inspection report is enclosed and consists of: this transmittal letter; the Title
15 Procedures Checklist outlining applicable minimum standards for each facility; the Physical
Plant Evaluation outlining Title 24 requirements for design of each facility; the Living Area Space
Evaluation summarizing the physical plant configuration and showing the capacity of each
facility. Refer to each facility’s Title 15 Checklist for indication of compliance status and evidence
used to determine compliance.
We encourage the practice of maintaining a permanent file for historical copies of all inspections
that would also include documentation of corrections made following the inspection. This file
should be the first point of reference when preparing for all future inspections.
LOCAL INSPECTIONS
In addition to the biennial inspection by the BSCC, inspections are also required annually by the
County Health Department and biennially by the State Fire Marshal or an authorized
representative (Health and Safety Code Sections 101045 and 13146.1).

Please consider our report in conjunction with the reports from the County Health Department
and the respective fire authorities for a comprehensive perspective of your facilities. Local
inspection reports are forwarded to your department under a separate cover. Please refer to
each facility’s fire and county health department for a complete and comprehensive inspection
review. Appendix A (below) will indicate each facility’s date for their fire and county health
inspection date and any facility’s inspection(s) that is overdue or has noncompliance issues.
BSCC INSPECTION
Title 15, CCR Inspection
Our evaluation consisted of reviewing only those policies and procedures related specifically to
the applicable regulations included in Title 15, CCR.1 There was one noncompliance issue
noted:
• 1032 Fire Suppression Preplanning (c): Requires inspections at least once every two
years. Valley Jail (Van Nuys) last inspection was 04/21/2016.
Please refer to the Procedures Checklist for detailed information.
Title 24, CCR Physical Plant
Harbor Jail opened in 2009 but was closed months later due to lack of detention personnel. The
facility reopened on February 16, 2020. BSCC was unable to conduct the living area space or
the physical plant evaluations during this inspection. BSCC will conduct these evaluations in
March of 2023.
There were no changes made to the physical plant of the remaining five (5) jails. We found no
items of noncompliance.
Please refer to each facility’s Physical Plant Checklist for detailed information.
Corrective Action Plan
Please submit a current Fire Inspection report for Valley Jail (Van Nuys) when it becomes
available.
Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act (JJDPA) Compliance
The BSCC monitors local detention facilities for compliance with JJDPA. In the 77th Street
Division Jail, multiple youth were detained in secure custody past 6 hours. Staff informed BSCC
that a delay in booking was the reason. BSCC provided technical assistance and will review
and inspect youth detention logs during the summer of 2023.
1 BSCC does not review all policies and procedures. We do not “approve” policies and procedures, nor do we
review them for constitutional or legal issues. We recommend agencies seek review through their legal advisor,
risk manager and other persons deemed appropriate.
