Plumas County (2018-2020 inspection cycle)

August 15, 2020 Todd Johns, Sheriff/Coroner Plumas County Sheriff’s Office 1400 East Main Street Quincy, CA 95971 2018-2020 BIENNIAL INSPECTION OF PLUMAS COUNTY SHERIFF’s OFFICE, PLUMAS COUNTY JAIL, PENAL CODE 6031 Dear Sheriff Johns: On June 18, 2020 staff of the Board of State and Community Corrections (BSCC) conducted the 2018-2020 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. 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 3880 Plumas County Jail; 18-20 Sheriff Johns Plumas County Sheriff’s Office Page 2 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. Inspection Date Fire and Life Safety September 17, 2019 Medical and Mental Health May 17, 2019 Environmental Health December 20, 2019 Nutritional Health 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, relevant documentation, a phone interview with the Jail Commander and Staff, and a discussion of any changes to the physical plant of facility, were included in the inspection process. 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 reviewed documentation, including: required safety checks; monthly fire and life safety inspections; the use of sobering cells; use of restraints; inmate grievances procedures; and, inmate discipline policies to evaluate if practices were consistent with policy, procedures and Title 15 regulations. We identified no items of noncompliance. Title 24, CCR Physical Plant Through interviewing the Jail Commander and Sergeants, BSCC Staff was able to determine that there were no changes made to the physical plant and the rated capacity remains at 67. The Jail was originally constructed under the 1986 Title 24 Regulations with some renovations 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 County Jail; 18-20 Sheriff Johns Plumas County Sheriff’s Office Page 3 completed under the 1994 Title 24 Regulations. On the day of the interview, there were 27 inmates, 22 males and 5 females, 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. Additionally, safety checks are significant in ensuring that the well-being of inmates is a primary staff function. The current Jail Management System lacks an easily retrievable means for jail supervisors to assess and inspect the consistency of the checks. Due to the liability associated with safety checks, we recommend working with your vendor or develop other means of recording checks in a clear, consistent and easily reviewable manner. 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 2018-2020 biennial inspection cycle of the Plumas County Jail Facility. We would like to express our gratitude to Jail Commander Chad Hermann, Sergeant April Gott, and Sergeant Tanner Hermann for their assistance and extensive preparation for the inspection. We look forward to working with you in the future to provide technical assistance as you go forward with the construction of the new Plumas County Jail.
