Dear Chief Reynoso:
On October 24, 2019, staff of the Board of State and Community Corrections (BSCC)
conducted the 2018-2020 biennial inspection of the El Monte Police Department Type IJ
Jail facility. To prepare staff for the inspection, a pre-inspection briefing was held on
August 15, 2019.
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 Procedures Checklist outlining applicable Title 15 sections; the Physical Plant
Evaluation outlining Title 24 requirements for design; and the Living Area Space
Evaluation that summarizes the detention facility’s physical plant configuration.
We encourage continuing the practice of maintaining a permanent file for historical copies
of all inspections. This file should be the first point of reference when preparing for all
future inspections.
LOCAL INSPECTIONS
In addition to a 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 County of
Los Angeles Fire Department for a comprehensive perspective of your facility.

The fire inspection is overdue. Please contact your fire authority to schedule the fire
inspection. The county health inspection is current and there are no compliance 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. The following standard
was noted as non-compliant:
• § 1020. Corrections Officer Core Course: All custodial personnel of a Type I, II,
III, or IV facility shall successfully complete the “Corrections Officer Core Course”
as described in Section 179 of Title 15, CCR, within one year from the date of
assignment. BSCC was advised that there is only one full-time core trained female
custody staff. When a female is in custody and there is no core trained female
available, a female dispatcher will assume the responsibilities of carrying for the
female inmate(s). Due to the facility operating as a Type I facility all staff employee
who operates as custody staff must attend the Correctional Officer Core Course
within one year of assignment.
Title 24, CCR PHYSICAL PLANT
BSCC reviews physical plants against the Title 24 standards at the time of original design
or significant remodel. Based on the applicable standards, there were no issues of non-
compliance noted. The jail was clean and well-kept.
JUVENILE INSPECTION
In accordance with the JJDPA, BSCC monitors law enforcement facilities for compliance
with three core requirements of the Act: (1) Deinstitutionalization of Status Offenders, (2)
Separation of Juveniles from Incarcerated Adults, and (3) Removal from Adult Jails and
Lockups (6-hour secure detention limitation). The agency has certified that the jail facility
does not hold youth in secure detention. No violation was noted.
We reviewed policy, procedures, practice and supporting documentation related to the
requirements of Title 15 Article 9 – Minors in Custody in a Law Enforcement Facility and
WIC Section 207.1(d). We found no violations. We noted no areas of non-compliance
with this mandate. Minors in non-secure detention are held in the juvenile holding area
outside the jail facility.
CORRECTIVE ACTION PLAN
Please review the compliance issue above. If you choose to correct this issue, forward a
“Corrective Action Plan” by June 20, 2020.
