2018-2020 BIENNIAL INSPECTION OF SAN FRANCISCO COUNTY SHERIFF’S DEPARTMENT
DETENTION AND COURT HOLDING FACILITIES, PENAL CODE 6031
Dear Sheriff Hennessy:
On June 24-28, 2019, the Board of State and Community Corrections (BSCC) conducted the 2018-2020 biennial
inspection of the San Francisco Detention and Court Holding Facilities.
Pursuant to Penal Code Section 6031, this inspection was performed to determine compliance with Minimum
Standards for Local Detention Facilities as outlined in Titles 15 and 24, California Code of Regulations (CCR). In
addition, BSCC conducted compliance monitoring pursuant to Welfare and Institutions Code Section 209(f) and
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; 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 facility. Please refer to the Title 15 Checklist for 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 facility. Each of the local inspections
were current. At the time of the BSCC inspection, the detention facilities were overdue for the annual Medical
Mental Health and Nutritional inspections and the court holding facilities were overdue for the annual
Environmental Health inspections. Prior to completing this report, we were informed by Sergeant Mankin-Rice and
Lieutenant Caramucci they have scheduled these inspections.

BSCC INSPECTION
The inspection consisted of reviewing the San Francisco County Sheriff’s Department Policy and Procedure
Manual, the Custody Division Manual, the Field Operations Division Manual and the individual facility operational
manuals. BSCC staff conducted a site visit to review operations, conduct a physical plant evaluation, review relevant
documentation, and conduct interviews with administration staff, facility staff, inmates and collaborative partners.
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 the following items of noncompliance;
System Wide
Title 15, Section 1029 Policy and Procedures Manual:
During the desk audit it was determined the agency was noncompliant with this regulation because the San
Francisco Sheriff's Department Policy & Procedure Manual and the Custody Operations Division Policy
& Procedure Manual were not comprehensively reviewed and updated at least every two years.
Title 15, Section 1058 Use of Restraint Devices:
After reviewing documentation, BSCC staff determined the agency is noncompliant with this regulation.
The reports did not document the current regulation requiring continued retention for placements in
restraints to be reviewed a minimum of every hour. Technical assistance was provided to have the agency’s
policy updated and provide training to staff.
Jail#1
Title 15, Section 1029 Policy and Procedures Manual:
During the desk audit it was determined County Jail#1 Operations Manual was noncompliant with this
regulation due to the manual not being comprehensively reviewed and updated at least every two years as
required by this regulation.
Jail#2
Title 15, Section 1029 Policy and Procedures Manual:
During the desk audit it was determined County Jail#2 Operations Manual was noncompliant with this

Title 15, Section 1029 Policy and Procedures Manual Section (1):
On the day of inspection, the facility could not provide BSCC staff with the required documentation in this
regulation for conducting an annual security review to evaluate and make a record of security measures.
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.

Jail#2 (cont.)
Title 15, Section 1032 Fire Suppression Preplanning:
On the day of inspection, the facility was noncompliant with this regulation due to not being able to provide
BSCC staff with documentation for monthly fire prevention inspections by facility staff.
Title 15, Section 1065 Exercise and Recreation:
BSCC staff determined the facility is noncompliant with this regulation due to the facility only offering the
inmates exercise and recreation in one three-hour block per week. This does not meet the requirements of
this regulation of having three hours of exercise and recreation distributed over a period of seven days.
Jail#4
Title 15, Section 1065 Exercise and Recreation:
BSCC staff determined the facility is noncompliant with this regulation due to the facility only offering the

There were no changes made to the physical plant of any facility since the last BSCC biennial inspection. BSCC
staff found the following areas of noncompliance.
Jail#4
Title 24, Section 1231.1.2.2 Temporary Holding Cell or Room:
On the day of the inspection, BSCC staff observed 30 inmates in Holding Cell A and 24 inmates in Holding
Cell B. Both holding cells have a rated capacity of 10 due to the square footage and bench space. The
agency is noncompliant with this regulation based on exceeding the rated capacity of each holding cell.
Title 24, Section 1231.1.2.2 Temporary Holding Cell or Room:
On the day of inspection, BSCC staff reviewed the facility Head Count Sheet and conducted a visual
inspection of the housing blocks. After completing the review and visual inspection, it was noted Block D
