A pre-inspection briefing was held on June 2, 2022 and the facility was inspected on July 13, 2022. Pursuant to Penal Code Section 6031, these inspections were 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. The complete Board of State and Community Corrections (BSCC) inspection report is enclosed and consists of the following: this transmittal letter; a Title 15 Procedures checklist, outlining applicable minimum standards for juvenile detention facilities; a Physical Plant Evaluation, outlining applicable Title 24 minimum standards; and the Living Area Space Evaluation (LASE), summarizing the physical plant configuration and outlining the rated capacity of the 0. 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. MANDATORY 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). Results of those inspections are considered a part of this report. The dates of the local inspections are listed below. We encourage the practice of maintaining a permanent file for historical copies of all inspections including documentation of corrections made following the inspection.

BSCC INSPECTION RESULTS Title 15, CCR Minimum Standards Upon final review of all documentation, there are no outstanding items of noncompliance with Title 15 at the Dinuba Police Department Temporary Holding Facility. No corrective action is required at this time. Title 24, CCR Physical Plant There were no changes made to the physical plant and your rated capacity remains at 0. Please see the Physical Plant Evaluation for more information. There are no outstanding items of noncompliance with Title 24 minimum standards. Training The Dinuba Police Department self-attested they had completed required training and is in compliance with all relevant regulations and mandates and mitigating circumstances if applicable. Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act (JJDPA) Compliance Monitoring Due to a clerical error on the part of the Dinuba Police Department, the secure and non-secure detention logs were missing. However, the monthly reports were submitted properly. A review of the monthly reports found no violations of the JJDPA. Please refer to Title 15 Procedures checklist for detailed information. Closing On July 13, 2022, BSCC staff held an Exit Brief with your staff. During that brief, BSCC staff provided an overview of the biennial inspection and provided technical assistance and best practices. Due to no noncompliance issues, your agency is not required to provide a Corrective Action Plan. 1 BSCC reviews only those policy and procedures required by, and applicable to, Title 15, CCR. BSCC staff do not “approve” policies and procedures or assess them for constitutional or legal issues. Agencies should seek review through their legal advisor, risk manager, and other persons deemed appropriate for such evaluation. 5886 Tulare Dinuba PD TH LTR 20-22 Devon Popovich Chief of Police Page 3 This concludes the 2020/2022 biennial inspection report.
