A pre-inspection briefing was held on Tuesday, June 20, 2023, and the following facility was inspected between Tuesday, August 15, 2023 and Wednesday, August 16, 2023: FACILITY NAME BSCC # FACILITY TYPE Trinity County Jail 5830 II This inspection was 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. INSPECTION RESULTS We identified the following items of noncompliance with Title 15 Minimum Standards: Title 15, §1027 Number of Personnel: A sufficient number of personnel shall be employed in each local detention facility to ensure the implementation and operation of the programs and activities required by these regulations…Whenever one or more females are in custody, there shall be at least one female employee who shall be immediately available and accessible to such females. Tim Saxon Sheriff-Coroner Page 2 BSCC staff found that there are times when staffing drops below plannedminimum staffing, there are problems with meeting minimum safety check requirements in the intake area, and there are times when the facility does not have female corrections personnel immediately available to females in custody. Title 15, §1055 Safety Cell: (b) A person shall be placed in a safety cell only with the approval of the facility manager or designee, or responsible health care staff; continued retention shall be reviewed a minimum of every four hours. (c) A medical assessment shall be completed as soon as possible, but not more than 12 hours from the time of placement in the safety cell. The person shall be medically cleared for continued retention, referral to advanced treatment, or removal from the safety cell a minimum of every 24 hours thereafter. (f) Procedures shall be established to assure administration of necessary nutrition and fluids. (g) People placed in the safety cell shall be allowed to retain sufficient clothing or be provided with a suitably designed “safety garment,” to provide for their personal privacy unless specific identifiable risks to the person’s safety or to the security of the facility are documented. BSCC staff was unable to confirm through documentation that there was reason/approval for placement in the cell, medical assessments were completed, fluids were offered, or that the person’s clothes were taken or replaced by a suicide smock. Title 15, §1056 Sobering Cell: Sobering cell shall be used for temporary holding of incarcerated people who are a threat to their own safety or the safety of others due to their state of intoxication. A person shall be removed from the sobering cell as soon as they are able to continue the admission process or are no longer a risk to themselves or others. In no case shall a person remain in a sobering cell over six hours without an evaluation by medical or custody staff to determine whether the person has an urgent medical problem, pursuant to section 1213 of these regulations. At 12 hours from the time of placement, all persons must receive an evaluation by responsible health care staff. Intermittent direct visual observation of people held in the sobering cell shall be conducted no less than every half hour. Such observation shall be documented. BSCC staff was unable to confirm documentation of persons being taken out of the cell when sober, evaluations prior to six hours, and that medical assessments are completed within 12 hours. 5830 Trinity County Jail II LTR 23-24 Tim Saxon Sheriff-Coroner Page 3 Title 15, §1065 Exercise and Out-of-Cell Time: (a) The facility administrator of a Type II or III facility shall develop written policies and procedures for a minimum of 10 hours of out of cell time distributed over a period of seven days to include: (1) an opportunity for three hours of exercise and (2) an opportunity for seven hours of recreation. Policies shall include reasonable and necessary procedures to ensure safety and security. BSCC staff was unable to confirm documentation of exercise and out-of-cell time. Recent changes to the inmate tracking systems and lack of personnel’s knowledge were cited as the reason for limited documentation. Title 15, §1073 Grievance Procedures (10) The facility manager or designee shall conduct regular review of grievances, responses, and appeals. BSCC staff found that the file of grievances was missing a number of grievances, responses, and appeals. Changes in personnel and a move to a new facility are cited as reasons for missing files.

Refer to the Physical Plant Evaluation (PHY) and Living Area Space Evaluation (LASE) attachments for information related to Rated Capacity and Title 24 compliance.
