On May 25, 2018, staff of the Board of State and Community Corrections (BSCC) conducted the 2016-
2018 biennial inspection of the Nevada County Sheriff’s Office Truckee Substation.
Pursuant to Penal Code Section 6031, these inspections were performed for compliance with the Minimum
Standards for Local Detention Facilities as outlined in Titles 15 and 24, California Code of Regulations.
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) for the separation
requirements of juveniles from incarcerated adults.
The complete BSCC inspection report is enclosed and consists of:
• This transmittal letter;
• The Title 15 Procedures checklists outlining Title 15 requirements; and
• A Physical Plant Evaluation outlining Title 24 requirements for building design, furniture and
fixtures; and
• A Living Area Space Evaluation summarizing the physical plant configuration.
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 a comprehensive perspective of your
facilities.
We encourage 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.

Historical Note: Previous to the 2008-2010 Inspection Cycle a Truckee Superior Court holding cell was included on the Truckee
Substation LASE and was part of the inspection of the substation jail. However, the court is a stand-alone building with a separate
address. The cell in question is within a non-secure perimeter and used for its restroom and attorney interview space only. As a result,
the cell was removed from this LASE and no new BSCC numbered facility was established for the court since it does not have a secure
perimeter.
