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 pursuit 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 Title 15 Procedures Checklist outlining applicable minimum standards for the facility; the Physical Plant Evaluation outlining Title 24 requirements for design of the facility; the 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. We encourage the practice of maintaining a permanent file for historical copies of all inspections that would also include documentation of corrections made following the inspection. This file should be the first point of reference when preparing for all future inspections. LOCAL INSPECTIONS In addition to the biennial inspection by the BSCC, inspections are also required annually by the County Health Department 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 Department and the respective fire authorities for a comprehensive perspective of your facilities. Local inspection reports are forwarded to your Department under a separate cover. Each of the local inspections were current.

We found one item of noncompliance: 1058 Use of Restraints Devices: The facility uses the “WRAP” to restrain prisoners who display behavior which results in the destruction of property or reveal an intent to cause physical harm to self or others. Currently, there is no policy supporting the use of restraints. The use of restraints should not be used until the facility develops policies, procedures, and guidelines for officers to follow to achieve compliance. Please refer to the Procedures Checklist for detailed information. Title 24, CCR Physical Plant There were no changes made to the physical plant. We found no items of noncompliance. Please refer to the Physical Plant Checklist for detailed information. Corrective Action Plan If the facility continues to use restraints, please develop policy for the use of restraints and forward your policy to BSCC upon development. Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act Compliance The BSCC monitors local detention facilities for compliance with JJDPA. Secure and Nonsecure youth are held in the jail setting out of sight and sound of adult prisoners. -- This concludes our inspection report for the 2020-2022 biennial inspection cycle of the El Cajon Police Department’s Type I Jail Facility.
