PURPOSE OF ORDER:

The purpose of this order is to establish procedures to maximize facility security in the recreation areas.

 

SCOPE OF ORDER:

This order applies to all personnel assigned to, and working at Pitchess Detention Center (PDC) South Facility.

 

ORDER:

Supervisors will execute one of four measures during inmate exercise and recreation time. These measures will be consistent with Department policy and the requirements of California Code of Regulations (CCR) Title 15 and Title 24.

  • Inspect the perimeter fence prior to allowing the inmates to exit the recreation area.
  • Conduct a random search of the inmate population as they exit the designated recreation area. If the perimeter fence has been compromised, all inmates shall be searched and screened for metal objects.
  • Identify a two person team to walk the recreation area.
  • Identify an “Adam” unit to park near gate 11C and monitor the inmate population during their exercise and recreation time. If an “Adam” unit is not available, identify a deputy to check out a Department vehicle and park near gate 11C.

These measures are not listed in any particular order. Furthermore, to avoid creating a discernible pattern, supervisors will employ the measures using their own discretion.
