Department has been completed. A pre-inspection briefing was held on September 7,
2023, and the following facilities were inspected between September 16, 2023, and

FACILITY NAME BSCC # FACILITY TYPE
Central Detention Center 4220 II
Glen Helen Detention Center 4280 II
High Desert Detention Center 4290 II
West Valley Detention Center 4362 II
These inspections were conducted pursuant to Penal Code Section 6031 to determine
compliance with the Minimum Standards for Local Detention Facilities as outlined in Titles
15 and 24, California Code of Regulations. In addition, Board of State and Community
Corrections (BSCC) staff conducted compliance monitoring pursuant to Welfare and
Institutions Code Section 209(f) and the federal Juvenile Justice and Delinquency
Prevention Act (JJDPA).
In addition to inspection(s) by the BSCC, inspections are also required annually by the
County Health Officer and biennially by the State Fire Marshal or an authorized
representative (Health and Safety Code Sections 101045 and 13146.1). The results of
those inspections are considered a part of this report.

CORRECTIVE ACTION PLAN (CAP)
An Exit Briefing with your staff was held on Wednesday, October 8, 2023, BSCC staff
presented an overview of the inspection and discussed technical assistance and best
practice recommendations. BSCC staff reviewed and provided an Initial Inspection Report
for noncompliance items found during the inspection.
On December 14, 2023, you submitted a CAP and informed BSCC you have begun
addressing some of your noncompliant issues with training bulletins, in-person trimester
training, and briefing training regarding § 1027.5 Safety Checks, § 1055 Use of Safety
Cell, § 1056 Use of Sobering Cell, and § 1058 Use of Restraint Devices. The items of
noncompliance above will require a follow-up inspection to verify compliance and/or the
steps your agency has taken to correct the issues within 60 days of your CAP due date.
We will respond to the CAP under a separate cover letter.
