To prepare for this inspection, a pre-inspection briefing was held on March 11, 2020. 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. 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. 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 BSCC inspection report consists of this transmittal letter and the attached Title 15 Procedures checklist. Compliance is indicated by policy and/or documentation review. Please refer to the Title 15 Procedures Checklist for a summary of all relevant minimum standards, indication of compliance or noncompliance, and information used to determine compliance.
