2018-2020 BIENNIAL INSPECTION OF BISHOP POLICE DEPARTMENT, TEMPORARY
HOLDING FACILITY, PENAL CODE 6031
Dear Chief Stec:
On May 20, 2020, staff of the Board of State and Community Corrections (BSCC) conducted the
2018-2020 biennial inspection of the Bishop Police Department Temporary Holding Facility.
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 conducts compliance monitoring
pursuant to the federal Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act (JJDPA) for the
separation requirements of juveniles from incarcerated adults.
Due to the coronavirus pandemic and the issuance of a statewide shelter-in-place order, the
BSCC was unable to complete on-site inspections from mid-March through June 30, 2020, the
end of the 2018-2020 biennial inspection cycle. BSCC staff conducted virtual inspections via
desk audit of all facilities originally scheduled for inspection during this time. Desk audits are
comprised of a comprehensive review of all applicable policies and procedures and
documentation.
The complete BSCC inspection report is enclosed and consists of this transmittal letter, the Title
15 Procedures Checklist outlining applicable minimum standards, a Physical Plant Evaluation
Outlining Title 24 requirements for design and, a Living Area Space Evaluation summarizing the
physical plant configuration and showing the capacity of the facility. Refer to the Title 15
Checklist for indication of compliance status and evidence used to determine compliance.
LOCAL INSPECTIONS
In addition to the biennial 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). Please consider our report in
conjunction with the reports from the County Health Officer and the respective fire authorities for

Fire and Life Safety June 16, 2020
Environmental Health July 1, 2020
Health Inspections
We have a current health inspection report for the above listed facility. The local health inspector
found no items of non-compliance.
BSCC INSPECTION
The inspection consisted of a review of the Bishop Police Department Policy Manual which
includes procedures for the operation of the Temporary Holding Facility. In addition, relevant
documentation, phone interview with Lieutenant Joshua Ellsworth, and a discussion of any
changes to the physical plant of facility.
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 We identified the following items of
noncompliance:
Title 15, §1024, Court Holding and Temporary Holding Facility Training
Custodial personnel who supervise inmates in, and supervisors of, a Court Holding or
Temporary Holding facility shall complete 8 hours of specialized training. Additionally,
eight hours of refresher training shall be completed once every two years.
Training has not been completed in the last three years.
Title 15, §1032, Fire Suppression Preplanning
Regular fire prevention inspections by facility staff on a monthly basis with two-year
retention of the inspection record
BSCC Staff requested two years of fire prevention inspections. There were no
inspections completed by facility staff.
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.

Please refer to the Procedures Checklist for detailed information.
Title 24, CCR Physical Plant
Through interviewing with Lt. Ellsworth, BSCC Staff was informed that there were no changes
made to the physical plant. The facility was originally constructed under the 1976 Title 24
Regulations. On the day of the interview, there were no inmates being held in the facility.
There were no issues of non-compliance.
Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act Compliance
In accordance with JJDPA. BSCC monitors jail facilities for compliance with one of four core
requirements of the Act, Separation of Juveniles from Incarcerated Adults. Minors are not
detained in the lockup at this facility; therefore, no violations of the JJDPA were identified.
Technical Assistance
At the conclusion of the inspection interview, BSCC staff provided a debrief of the items found
out of compliance. Understanding the issues with the current COVID-19 emergency and being
able to send personnel to be trained, on-line and other training options were discussed with Lt.
Ellsworth to address the required training.
Additionally, examples of fire and life safety checklists were also provided to help develop a local
monthly inspection form.
Corrective Action Plan
If you choose to address the noncompliance issues noted above, please provide a corrective
action plan so that we may update our files to indicate compliance.
This concludes our inspection report for the 2018-2020 biennial inspection cycle of the Bishop
Police Department Temporary Holding Facility. We would like to express our gratitude to
Lieutenant Joshua Ellsworth for his assistance and preparation for the inspection. We look
forward to working with you in the future to provide technical assistance. If you should have any
questions, please contact me at (916) 323-2613 or email at dale.miller@bscc.ca.gov
