COMPONENTS
The facility has a system for classifying detainees. In CDFs and IGSAs,
an Obiective Classification System or similar is used.
The facility classification system includes:
Classifying detainees upon atrival;
Separating from the general population those individuals who
cannot be classified upon arrival; and

reviewing every classification decision.
The intake/processing officer reviews work-folders, A-files, etc., to

The Intake Officers review all

•

Staff uses only information that is factual. and reliable to determine
classification assignments. Opinions and unsubstantiated! unconfirmed
reports may be filed but are not used to score detainees classifications.
Housing assignments are based on classification-level.
A detainee's classification-level does not affect hislher recreation
opportunities. Detainees recreate with persons of similar classification
designations.
Detainee work assignments are based upon classification designations.
The classification process includes reassessment/reclassification. At
IGSA's, detainees may request reassessment 60 days after arrival.

Procedures exist for a detainee to appeal their classification assignment
Only a designated supervisor or classification specialist has the authority
to reduce a classification-level on appeal.
Classification appeals are resolved within five business days and
detainees are notified of the outcome within 10 business days.
Classification designations may be appealed to a higher authority, such
as the Warden or equivalent.
