September 27, 2021 Todd Johns, Sheriff/Coroner Plumas County Sheriff’s Office 1400 East Main Street Quincy, CA 95971 2020-2022 BIENNIAL INSPECTION OF PLUMAS COUNTY SHERIFF’s OFFICE, PLUMAS COUNTY JAIL, PENAL CODE 6031 Dear Sheriff Johns: On June 17, 2021, staff of the Board of State and Community Corrections (BSCC) provided a pre-inspection briefing to facility supervisors outlining the proposes, process and necessary documentation needed for the biennial inspection. Staff gave participants a complete preview of the visit and provided a schedule of the inspection. BSCC staff provided applicable checklists and answered any questions. On September 15, 2021, staff of the BSCC conducted the 2020-2022 biennial inspection of the Plumas County Jail, 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 (JJPDA) 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 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 a comprehensive perspective of your facilities. Local inspection reports are forwarded to your office under a separate cover. The Fire and Life Safety Inspection is current. 3880 Plumas Jail II LTR 20-22 Sheriff Johns Plumas County Sheriff’s Office Page 2 Inspection Date Fire and Life Safety September 17, 2019 Medical and Mental Health July 8, 2021 Environmental Health December 10, 2020 Health Inspections We have current medical/mental health and environmental health inspection reports for the above listed facility. The local health department does not have a nutritional inspector on staff and the nutritional health part of the inspection was not completed by the health department. The Facility Commander advised me that the contracted vendor for food serves has a licensed dietitian who develops the menu in accordance with the guidelines listed in Title 15. BSCC INSPECTION The inspection consisted of a review of the Plumas County Sheriff’s Office Custody Services Manual and sections of the Plumas County Sheriff’s Office Policy Manual that apply to Jail Operations. In addition, reviews of relevant documentation, interviews with multiple inmates, discussion with Jail Staff, and a walk-through of the physical plant of facility were used to complete this assessment. In reviewing policies and procedures during the 2020-2022 Cycle, consideration was given to agency’s Emergency Suspension of Services related to the COVID-19 emergency measures taken and authorized by the Board of State and Community Corrections. For the safety of the inmates and staff, the Plumas County Sheriff’s Office had suspended the following services from March 2020 through July 2021: Section 1061, Inmate Education Programs Section 1062, Visitation Section 1070, Individual /Family Service Programs Section 1072, Religious Observances BSCC Staff reviewed policy and procedures for these sections and any mitigation measures taken to minimize the impact of the suspension of these services. 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 found no items of noncompliance identified. Please refer to the Procedures Checklist for detailed information. 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. 3880 Plumas Jail II LTR 20-22 Sheriff Johns Plumas County Sheriff’s Office Page 3 Title 24, CCR Physical Plant There were no changes made to the physical plant and the rated capacity remains at 67. The Jail was originally constructed under the 1980 Title 24 Regulations with some renovations completed under the 1994 Title 24 Regulations. On the day of the inspection, there were 35, 29 male and 6 female, inmates being held in the facility. There were no issues of non-compliance. Corrective Action Since there were no items of non-compliance, no corrective actions are needed. Technical Assistance To ensure compliance with Health and Safety Code Sections 101045, it is recommended that the Sheriff’s Office work closely with the County Health Department Officer to ascertain assistance in completing all portions of the Board of State and Community Corrections’ Health Inspection Checklists. This would include the Adult Jail Nutrition Inspection Checklists that maybe completed by the health inspector with cooperation with the contracted vendor’s dietitian. This can be included with the annual environment health or medical/mental health inspections. At the conclusion of each inspection, BSCC staff offers an out brief of findings to the facility management. This included an immediate review of the inspection and any non-compliance issues. It also included potential courses of action in correcting those non-compliance issues. Finally, the out brief provided managers with technical assistance in identifying hazards that may exist in the facility. 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 housed or detained at this facility; therefore, no violations of the JJDPA were identified. This concludes our inspection report for the 2020-2022 biennial inspection cycle of the Plumas County Jail Facility. We would like to express our gratitude to Undersheriff Chad Hermann, Jail Commander Steve Clark, Sergeant April Gott, Doctor Joseph Schad, ACSW Kegan Hood, and the entire staff for their assistance and extensive preparation for the inspection. We look forward to continuing working with you in the future to provide technical assistance as you go forward with the construction of the new Plumas County Public Safety Center.
