A pre-inspection briefing was held on Thursday, January 26, 2023, and the Sutter County Jail and Superior Court Holding Facility were inspected on March 30, 2023. These inspections were performed 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 for the separation requirements of juveniles from incarcerated adults pursuant to Welfare and Institutions Code Section 209(f) and the federal Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act (JJDPA). In addition to the comprehensive inspection 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. INSPECTION RESULTS We identified one item of noncompliance with Title 151 Minimum Standards at the Sutter County Jail. §1280 Facility Sanitation, Safety, and Maintenance BSCC staff determined the agency to be noncompliant with this regulation due to areas being in disrepair and deferred maintenance. 1 BSCC reviews only those policy and procedures required by, and applicable to, Title 15, CCR. BSCC staff do not “approve” policies and procedures or assess them for constitutional or legal issues. Agencies should seek review through their legal advisor, risk manager, and other persons deemed appropriate for such evaluation.
