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. There were no areas of non-compliance noted in the current local inspections. 2900 LA Torrance PD City Jail IJ LTR 18-20 Eve Irvine, Chief of Police 2 | P a ge 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.

JUVENILE INSPECTION In accordance with the JJDPA, BSCC monitors law enforcement facilities for compliance with three core requirements of the Act: Deinstitutionalization of Status Offenders, Separation of Juveniles from Incarcerated Adults, and Removal from Adult Jails and Lockups (6-hour secure detention limitation). Secure youth are held inside a jail facility in a cell separated from adult’s prisoners. 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). Non-secure youth will be detained in the report writing room, outside the jail facility. We noted no areas of noncompliance with this mandate CORRECTIVE ACTION PLAN Please provide a corrective action plan for the noncompliance issue by June 5, 2020. Once corrective action has been taken, we will delete the compliance issue from your facility. This concludes our inspection report for the 2018-2020 inspection cycle.
