Detainee Center ("Piedmont") at Piedmont Regional Jail in Farmville, Virginia. The information
was gathered via observation of the facility by the delegation and interviews with detainees and
facility staff on July 19,2006.

Piedmont is located in Farmville, Virginia, about 170 miles south of Washington, D.C.
Piedmont houses both inmates and immigration detainees of both genders, with a majority of its
detainees coming from EI Salvador and other Spanish-speaking countries. The delegation was
told that Piedmont houses more detainees than any other facility in Virginia?
Men are housed in four "pods," or 90-person wards, located in a section of the jail away
from the regular inmates? Women are housed with female inmates, because there are not
enough female detainees to populate a pod.4 The average population is 330.5 On the day of our
visit, the population was 309. 6

II.

ICE DETENTION STANDARDS

In November 2000, the Immigration and Naturalization SerVice ("INS"),7 disseminated
the "INS Detention Standards" (the "Standards") to ensure the "safe, secure and humane
treatment" of immigration detainees. The Standards are memorialized in the Detention
Operations Manual, which includes 38 standards covering a broad range of issues ranging from
visitation policies to grievance procedures and food service. The Standards apply to all ICEoperated detention centers and other facilities that house immigration detainees pursuant to
contracts or intergovernmental service agreements ("I GSA").
The Standards hecameeffective at ICE-operated detention facilities on January 1, 200l.
ICE intended to implement the Standards at all of its contract and IGSA facilities by December
31, 2002. The Standards are considered a "floor" rather than a "ceiling" for the treatment of
immigration detainees; they are meant to set forth the minimum requirements to which ICE must
adhere in its facilities. Each ICE Field Office or Officer-in-Charge has the discretion to
promulgate polices and practices affording ICE detainees rights and protections beyond those
outlined in the Standards.

LATHAM&WATKI NSLLP

The Standards suggest that facilities pennit legal visitation seven days per week. 8
Attorneys should have access to their clients eight hours per day during the week and four hours
per day during the weekend.9 The visits must be private, and should not be interrupted for head
counts. IO Facilities should establish a procedure by which attorneys may call to detennine
whether a detainee is housed in a particular facilityY Detention centers should pennit visits
from attorneys, other legal representatives, legal assistants, and interpreters. 12
Piedmont bas substantially met this section of the Standards, but attorney visits may
not be permitted on weekends. The facility has videoconferencing equipment.13 Attorneys
may visit the detainees Monday through Friday, and are also offered the option of telephone
conferences with their clients. 14 The attorney or the detainee may initiate these phone calls, and
. Piedmont staff does not monitor them. 15 Most detainees, however, visit with their attorneys via
telephone conferencing. 16 Attorneys may call Piedmont to detennine whether their client is
being housed at the facilityY Law students and interpreters may meet with detainees provided
that Piedmont has advance knowledge of their visit and a supervisor gives prior approval. I 8
Independent medical service providers and experts are allowed to visit detainees, but the staff
doctor must approve the visit. 19
.
The facility staff explained that Piedmont discourages attorney-client visits during
mealtime, but that the kitchen will provide a regular meal to the detainee should the meeting
20
.
continue through a meal.

The detainees and the attorneys meet in a room that is only monitored visually by the
stafe! The attorneys are given two-way radios they can use to communicate with the guards?2
All visits are contact visits, so both the attorneys and the detainees are subject to a pat-down
search following the visit, at the discretion of the guards.23 Generally, the only contact visits
conducted at Piedmont for the detainees are with religious personnel, law enforcement officers,
and attorneys?4

2.

Visitation By Family And Friends

The Standards suggest that facilities establish written visitation hours and procedures,
and make them available to the public?5 This includes procedures for handling incoming money
for detainees?6 Visiting hours shall be set on Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays, and the
Standards encourage facilities to accommodate visitors at other times when they are facing a
particular hardship?7 Visits should be at least 30 minutes long, and longer when possible?8 If a
facility does not provide for visits from minors, ICE should arrange for visits with children or
stepchildren within the detainee's first 30 days at the facility, with continuing monthly visits?9
Visits should be granted to detainees in both disciplinary and administrative segregation unless a
detainee violates the visitation rules or threatens the security of the visitation room. 30

Piedmont has substantially met this section of the Standards. Contrary to the
Standards, no visiting hours are set on weekends, and visits are generally 20 minutes;
however, apparently weekend visits may be specially arranged, and longer visits are
generally accommodated. The visitation schedule is posted at the entrance to the facility,31 and
indicates that visiting hours are three days per week, Tuesday to Thursday, from 9:00 a.m. until
11 :00 a.m?2 Each pod is assi§ned one day per week for visitors, and each detainee may receive
up to six visitors at one time? There are no appointments~34 Rather, the visits for detainees
within a pod are awarded on a fIrst-come, fIrst-served basis?5 The schedule does not ensure that
each detainee can receive visitors either on Saturday or Sunday. If a particular individual has
difficulty visiting during the week, however, a weekend visit may be arranged?6 Piedmont
generally confines visits to the scheduled hours, but supervisors may adjust the schedule if a
detainee's visitors face a particular hardship.37 Although visits may officially last 20 minutes,38
supervisors usually extend the visit for up to 40 minutes?9 All family and friend visits are noncontact visits. 4o
Visitors may leave money for a detainee's commissary account or send money to the

LATHAM&WATKJ NSLLP
The Standards suggest that facilities provide detainees with reasonable and equitable
access to telephones during established facility waking hours. 43 In order to meet this
requirement,· facilities must provide at least one telephone for every 25 detainees. 44 The
Standards also suggest that telephone access rules be provided in writing to each detainee upon
admittance, and that the rules be posted where detainees may easily see them.45
Piedmont has met this Standard; although detainees stated that several of the
phones are often broken. Each pod has its own set of phones, and there are two types of
phones in each housing unit.46 There are five "blue phones" for each pod that may be used to
make collect calls, or buy items or phone minutes with a detainee's commissary.47 There are
also two pay phones for each pod that can be used to make collect calls and calls with calling
cards.4& The telephones are accessible during open dayroom periods depending upon the
detainee's classification.49 The detainees in the pod are each awarded a 20-minute slot to use the
phone, and the guards run through the list of detainees. 5o Thus, depending upon who has
expressed an interest in using the phones, it is very difficult to predict at what time a particular
detainee will have access to a phone. 51 The detainees interviewed also stated that several of the
phones are often broken.52
Telephone usage rules and instructions are posted next to the phones in both English and
Spanish.53 Similarly, the phone numbers of local consulates and legal service providers are
posted by each phone or bank of phones in the facility.54
2.

Direct Calls and Free Calls

The Standards allow facilities to generally restrict calls to collect calls.55 The facility
should, however, permit detainees to make direct calls to the local immigration court and the
Board ofImmigration Appeals, federal and local courts, consular officials, legal service
providers, government offices, and to family members in case of emergency. 56 The facility shall
not require indigent detainees to pay for these types of calls if local, nor for non-local calls if

there is a compelling need. 57 In addition, the facility "shall enable all detainees to make calls to
the [ICE]-provided list of free legal service providers and consulates at no charge to the detainee
,,58
. .
or the recelvmg party.
Piedmont has met this section ofthe Standards. The delegation observed po stings near
the phones describing the ability to place direct calls and toll free calls, and various detainees
were using the phones when the delegation arrived. 59 .If a detainee is financially unable to call
his attorney, the detainee can call the toll free number of the Capital Area Immigrants' Rights
Coalition ("CAIR Coalition"), and the CAIR Coalition will call his attorney on a three-way
call.60
3.

Telephone Access To Legal Representatives

The Standards require that facilities ensure privacy for a detainee's telephone calls
regarding legal matters, and require facilities to provide a reasonable number of telephones on
which detainees can make legal calls without being overheard by officers, other staff, or
detainees. 61 Facility staff shall not electronieally monitor legal calls absent a court order.62
Piedmont has partially met this section of the Standards: however, telephones where
detainees make outgoing calls are not private. Detainees are unable to make private telephone
calls, because the phones where detainees make outgoing calls are all located in the public
63
dayrooms with no privacy safeguards. The telephones are out in the open, and there are no
64
partitions. However, detainees may receive private phone calls from attorneys, if the calls are
initiated by the attorney representing the detainee and are set up in advance.65 The attorney
teleconferences are held in a private room where the detainee is housed.66 According to one
detainee, phone conversations, whether outgoing or incoming, private or legal, are not recorded
67
or monitored.
4.

Incoming Calls And Messages

The Standards suggest that facilities take and deliver messages from attorneys and
emergency incoming telephone calls to detainees as promptly as possible. 68
. Piedmont appears fully to have met this section of the Standards. If an attorney
would like to speak to a detainee, the detainee must wait by the phones in the dayroom for his

attorney to call.69 If a detainee's attorney calls, a facility officer will attempt to locate the
detainee. 7o If the detainee cannot be located quickly, the officer will take a message andrelay
that message to the detainee? I The procedure for emergency calls is to refer them to the Shift
Commander on a case-by-case basis.72
C.

Access to Legal Materials

The Standards suggest that all facilities housing detainees "permit detainees access to a
law library, and provide legal materials, facilities, equipment and documents copying privileges,
.
and the opportunity to prepare legal documents.,,73
1.

Law Library Conditions

The Standards propose that facilities provide a law library "in a designated room with
sufficient space to facilitate detainees' legal research and writing.,,74 The library should be of
sufficient size to permit reasonable access to all detainees desiring to use it, should include
sufficient tables and chairs, be well lit, and should be reasonably isolated from noisy areas?5
Piedmont has not fully met this section of the Standards: there is no law library at
Piedmont, and computer desks in two pods are not isolated from the housing area or from
noise. 76 The two L-block detainee housing pods each include one small desk and chair with a
desktop computer and printer.77 These desks ·permit only one person to work at any given time. 78
The desks in these two pods are not isolated from the rest of the housing area or from noise. 79
The two I-block detainee housing pods each include a small room containing two desks and two
computers. 80 The rooms were not visible to the delegation; but were viewed via the video
surveillance system in the control room.81 The rooms are separate from the common living area,
which might provide some level of isolation from noise. 82 These rooms appear quite small and
probably permit two detainees to comfortably work at any given time. 83 All pods also have
picnic-style tables that could be used as workspace.84 These tables, however, are not isolated
85
from the common area.

Equipment

The Standards suggest that facilities maintain an "adequate number of typewriters andlor
computers, writing implements, pager, and office supplies to enable detainees to prepare
documents for legal proceedings."
Piedmont does not appear to have fully met this section ofthe Standards: there do
not appear to be enough computers, and computers do not all function properly. The
computers located in the pods are loaded with word processing software that detainees can use to
draft legal documents and correspondence.87 The printers contain paper provided by the facility
at no cost to detainees. 88 One detainee interviewed said that he used the computer in his pod for
legal work and correspondence and that it functionsproperly.89 A detainee housed in an I-block
housing pod containing two computers claimed that the monitor of one computer was not
working properly.90 Another detainee in an I-block pod said that both
been
broken for two or three months and .that he repeatedly complained to
the
matter. 91 Given the number of detainees housed in the facility, the six total computers available
(including those that may be broken) appear to be inadequate.

3.

Library Holdings

The Standards include a list of legal materials that should be included in a detention
facility's law library.92 Facilities should also post a list of materials that are available. 93
Piedmont has not fully met this section of the Standards: only a few legal texts are
available, and no list is posted. There are a few legal texts in each of the housing units, but
Piedmont does not maintain a list of these books.94 Each of the computers in the pods is loaded
with a Lexis disk containing materials relating to immigration law.9 The disk is provided by
ICE, and the ICE representative that oversees Piedmont is responsible for downloading and
updating the Lexis materials on the computers. 96 Piedmont does not have a list of the contents of
the Lexis disk. 97 There is no access to the internet from the computers,98 and there is no access
to Lexis-Nexis or INS2000 from the computers in the pods.99

The Standards suggest that facilities devise a flexible. schedule to pennit all detainees,
regardless ofhousin~ or classification, to use the law library on a regular basis for a minimum of
five hours per week. 00 Detainees should not be forced to choose between library time and
meals, recreation time, or any other planned activity.lOI
.
Piedmont appears to have met this section of the Standards. Detainees may use the
computers to access legal sources arid work on legal documents everyday between 5:00 a.m. and
11:00 p.m. l02 There is a signup sheet for each computer, and a detainee may reserve the
computer for one hour at a time. l03 The ''trusties,'' or detainee liaisons to the facility staff, are
responsible for ensuring that the signup system runs smoothly.l04

5.

Requests for Additional Legal Materials

materials for inclusion in the facility's library.105 ICE must approve or deny the request and

Photocopies and Mail

material when such copies are reasonable and necessary for legal proceedings involving the
detainee. 109 Facilities shall provide enough copies to meet the filing requirements ofa particular
court or ICE and make certain that the detainee receives a copy for the detainee's personal

there is a limit on the number of copies a particular detainee may request. 113 Facility staff also
explained that a detainee is entitled to paper, envelopes, and stamps when the detainee is
classified as indigent. I 14 A detainee is indigent when he has no funds in his account for a period
of seven consecutive days. I IS If the detainee is not indigent, the cost of these supplies and
postage is deducted from his account. I 16 Piedmont will, however, supply envelopes and stamps
free of charge for mailing legal documents. l17 One detainee noted that he is provided these
materials each week free of charge. 118
7.

Assistance from Other Detainees

The Standards require that the detention facility permit detainees to assist one another
with legal research and in the preparation oflegal documents. I 19 A detainee is not pennitted to
ask for compensation for any legal assistance he may provide. 12o
Piedmont has met this section of the Standards. According to the Inmate Handbook,
Piedmont pennits detainees to help one another with research and preparation of legal
documents, and prohibits inmates from charging for legal services rendered. 121
8.

Personal Legal Materials

The Standards require that the facility pennit detainees to retain all personal legal
material upon admittance to the general population or in segregation, unless such material creates
a safety, security or sanitation hazard. 122
Piedmont has met this section ofthe Standards. The Inmate Handbook provides that
"may retain a reasonable amount oflegal materials in their cell,,,l23 and Sergeant
continned that detainees are pennitted to retain legal materials in their possession.1 24

immigration law and procedures, consistent with the security and orderly operation of each
facility .,,125 In addition, detainees shall have regular opportunities to view an "INS-approved
videotaped presentation on legal rights.,,126

It is unclear whether Piedmont has fully met this section of the Standards: according
totwo detainees, legal rights videos may be shown infrequently. According to Piedmont
staff, the "Know Your Rights" video is aired on the televisions inside the housing units once per
month,127 and new detainees should view the video as a part of their orientation to the detention
facility;128 Piedmont has an English and a Spanish version of this video presentation. 129
According to detainees, however, viewings have been inconsistent. One detainee acknowledged
that he was given an orientation when he arrived and was shown the "Know Your Rights"
video. 130 Another detainee, who was a head "trusty," stated that he had not seen a "Know Your
Rights" video in four months, and that it had not been played in his pod for that length of time. 131
A third detainee, also a head trusty, remarked that he had not seen the video in about a month
and a half, and he did not believe that it had been shown to the newest detainees as of his
interview. 132
According to Piedmont staff, members of the Capital Are Immigrants Rights (CAIR)
Coalition come once a month,133 although it is unclear whether they give group rights
presentati ons.

OTHER PROVISIONS OF THE ICE DETENTION STANDARDS
A.

Detainee Handbook

The Standards require that every Officer in Charge develop a site-specific detainee
handbook to serve as an overview of detention policies, rules, and procedures. 134 Every detainee
should receive a copy of the handbook upon admission to the facility. \35 The handbook will be
written in English and translated into Spanish and other prevalent languages as appropriate. 136
The handbook must include visitation hours and rules. 137 The handbook must notify detainees of
the facility correspondence pOlicy.138 The grievance section ofthe handbook must provide
notice of the opportunity to fIle both formal and informal' grievances and the procedures for
139
filing grievances and appeals.

conduct and the sanctions imposed. 140 It must advise detainees of rights including the right to
protection from abuse, right to freedom from discrimination, and right to pursue a grievance. 141
The handbook must also state that detainees have the opportunity to submit written questions,
requests, or concerns to ICE staff and the procedures for doing so.142
Piedmont has not met this section of the Standards. Detainees are not given a copy
of the Inmate Handbook, thongh many portions of the Handbook pertain to them as
residents ofthe facility, and are not informed of a great deal of information required under
the Standards. 143 Instead, detainees are given a two-page copy of the rules applicable to ICE
detainees, "Piedmont Detainee Center Orientation: INS Dorm Rules and Regulations," in

document lacks a great deal of information required by the Standards: it does not include any
information whatsoever on visitation; law library access; group legal rights presentations;
correspondence; grievance procedures; detainee classification; sanctions imposed for rule
infractions; detainees' right to protection from abuse and discrimination; or the opportunity to

B.

Recreation

The Standards suggest that all detainees have access to recreational programs and
activities under safe and secure conditions. 147 Detainees should be housed in facilities with
outdoor recreation and be permitted such outdoor recreation for one hour per day, five days per
week. l48 If a facility only provides indoor recreation, detainees must have access for at least one
hour per day, inciuding exposure to natural light. 149 Detainees should have access to "fixed and
movable equipment," including opportunities for cardiovascular exercise, and games and
.. ill
. dayrooms. 150

Piedmont has not met this section of the Standards because the detainees do not have
access to outdoor recreation for one hour per day, five days per week. Piedmont allows
outdoor recreation and has entertainment in the dayroom. l5l All recreation is segregated by
pods. 152 The entertainment in the dayroom consists of two satellite televisions for each pod of90
detainees. 153 The television programming alternates between Spanish and English stations. l54
The dayroom also has pull-up bars.155
The outdoor recreation area is used when the temperature outside is between 40 to 90
degrees Fahrenheit, and in general outdoor recreation is only available 2 to 3 times per week,
Monday through Friday.156 Further, detainees typically may only stay outside for recreation time
for 30 minutes to an hour. I57 The detainees can play either basketball or soccer outside. 158 The
area is always monitored by a guard to ensure the detainees' safety.159
C.

Access to Medical Care

The Standards state that "[a]ll detainees shall have accessto medical services that
promote detainee health and general well-being."I60 The Standards suggest that detainees are to
be provided with an initial medical and mental health screening, cost-effective primary medical
care, and emergency care. 161 Specifically, facilities should have procedures in place for the
provision of emergency medical care for detainees. 162 Also, facilities housing more than 200
detainees should have "sick call," or times when medical personnel are available to see detainees
who have requested medical services, a minimum offive days per week.I 63
Piedmont appears to have met this section of the Standards, although one detainee
expressed concerns regarding the high cost of care and delays in care. Detainees undergo a
medical and mental health screening when they arrive at the facility.l64 mv screenings are
conducted only if there is information in the detainee's record to indicate that the detainee may

One detainee stated that the costs of receiving medical care are high. 175 He also said that
the process of receiving non-emergency medical care was among the worst parts of his
experience at Piedmont because of the amount of time it takes to receive medical care ~~enerally,
three to four days), and that requests for medication must be renewed every five days.)
Another detainee, however, noted that detainees can go to see the nurse freely, or write out a
request to see the doctor, and reported no problems. I77
D.

Access to Dental Care

The Standards suggest that detainees undergo an initial dental screening exam within 14
days of their arrival. I78 Ifno on-site dentist is available, the Standards state that initial dental
screening may be performed by a physician, physician's assistant, or nurse practitioner.179
Detainees should be provided emergency dental treatment, including procedures for immediate
relief of pain.) 80 Detainees held for over six months should receive routine dental treatment
including "amalgam and composite restorations, prophylaxis, root canals, extractions, x-rays, the
repair and adjustment of prosthetic appliances and other procedures required to maintain the
detainee's health;,,18)

Detainee Classification System

The Standards suggest that facilities use a classification system and physically separate
detainees in different categories. I8S Detainees must be assigned to the least restrictive housing
unit consistent with facility safety and security.186 A detainee's classification is to be determined
on "objective" criteria, including criminal offenses, escape attempts, institutional disciplinary
history, violent incidents, and other relevant factors. 187 Opinions, unconfirmed and unverified

Classification is required in order to separate detainees with no or minimal criminal records from
inmates with serious criminal records. 189 Detainees with a history of assaultive or combative
behavior are not to be housed with non-assaultive detainees. l90
All facility classification systems shall allow classification levels to be re-determined and
include procedures by which new arrivals can appeal their classification levels. 191 Finally, the
detainee handbook's section on classification must include (1) an explanation of the
classification levels, with the conditions and restrictions applicable to each, and (2) the
procedures by which a detainee may appeal his classification. l92
Piedmont has not fully met this section of the Standards: 'detainees are not classified
into categories. Piedmont separates detained men from inmates, but it does not separate
193
detained women from inmates.
Detained men are kept in a s l . , section of the jail and do
not have much, if any, contact with the jail inmates. 194 Captain.. . stated that there are no
classification procedures beyond separating the detainees from inmates because the sole purpose
of detention is for immigration matters, so there is no need to consider the detainees' criminal
records in placing them in housing units. 195 There is; therefore, no official, initial segregation of
assaultive detainees from non-assaultive detainees, and classification is based primarily on

IfPiedniont staff members are able to determine whether a detainee is affiliated with a gang,

high concentration of members of the same gang?04 Recently, the facility has begun "gang
training" for the Piedmont facility staff, which includes learning how to identify tattoos in order
to determine whether a detainee belongs to a particular gang?05 One detainee stated that ample

Detainee Grievance Procedures

The Standards require that facilities develop and implement standard procedures for
handling detainee grievances?07 The Standards further suggest that facilities initially seek to
resolve grievances informally before engaging in a more formalized procedure. 208 Facilities
should establish a reasonable time limit for: "(i) processing, investigating, and responding to
grievances; (ii) convening a grievance committee to review formal complaints; and (iii)
providing written responses to detainees who filed formal grievances, including the basis for the
decision.,,209 Translating assistance for both formal and informal grievances must be provided
upon request?10 All grievances must receive supervisory review, include guarantees against
repr!sal, and allow for a1i~eals.2l1 The detainee handbook must provide the procedures for filing

certain cases, the formal grievance process is utilized.2 16 One detainee was not aware of the
grievance form or a formal grievance procedure.2 17
The grievance procedure is set forth in the Inmate Handbook (which detainees do not
receive) and the Piedmont Grievance Form.218 It establishes a reasonable time for a response to
a filed grievance (five working days for the Level I Response).219 If a detainee is not satisfied
with the Level I Response to his grievance, he must appeal to the next level within 48 hours, and
the Level II Response is also to be completed within five working days?20 The Form and the
Handbook provide for a written response to formal grievances; however, they do not indicate
that Piedmont convenes a grievance committee to review formal complaints. 221 The Grievance
Form indicates that there is a "grievance coordinator.,,222 Formal grievances are reviewed by the
Major.223
One grievance that was described by a detainee involved a complaint that detainees were
not given sufficient recreation time.224 According to that detainee, additional recreation time was
subsequently provided. 225 On the other hand, another detainee did not feel that his oral
guards being "disrespectful" were properly responded to by va~Li:lllll~

Religious Practices

The Standards suggest that detainees of different religious beliefs must be provided with
reasonable and equitable opportunities to participate in the practices of their respective faiths.2 27
Opportunities will be constrained only by concerns about safety, security, the orderly operation
of the facility, or extraordinary costs associated with a specific practice.',z28 Moreover, a
facility's staff shall make "all reasonable efforts to accommodate" special food services required
by a detainee's particular religion.229 Detainees in confinement must also be permitted to
participate in religious practices, consistent with the safety, security, and orderly operation of the
facility.23o

The Standards suggest that procedures be in place "to allow for formal and informal
contact between key facility staff and ICE staff and ICE detainees and to penn it detainees to
make written requests to ICE staff and receive an answer in an acceptable time frame.,,247 The
Standards suggest that both weekly visits be conducted by ICE personnel and that "regular
unannounced (not scheduled) visits" be conducted by the ICE OIC, the Assistant OlC, and
designated departmentheads?48 The purpose of these visits is to monitor housing conditions,
interview detainees, review records, and answer questions for detainees who do not comprehend
the immigration removal process?49 The Standards also require that detainees "have the
opportunity to submit written questions, requests, or concerns to ICE staff," which "shall be
delivered to ICE staff by authorized personnel (not detainees) withoutreading, altering, or
delay.,,25o Moreover, the Standards suggest that detainee requests be forwarded to the
appropriate ICE office within 72 hours and "answered as soon as possible or practicable, but not
later than 72 hours from receiving the request.,,251

CONCLUSION

Piedmont has met many sections, of the ICE Detention Standards, but has also not met a
number of sections.
To facilitate legal access, Piedmont should establish a law library and provide for more
regular showings of Know Your Rights videos to each pod, with notice to all detainees.
Piedmont should also provide an adequate number of computers in working order for detainee
use.
To facilitate access to medical care, Piedmont should ensure that there are no delays in
responding to non-emergency requests for medical care. Piedmont should also provide each
detainee with a dental screening upon arrival, and provide dental services other than extractions
for detainees in need of immediate relief.

With respect to the standards regarding recreation, Piedmont should ensure that detainees
have access to outdoor recreation five days per week, instead of two to three days per week.
With respect to the staridards regarding detainee grievances, Piedmont should ensure that
all detainees are infonned of the process by which grievances can be filed.
Finally, to support detainees' access to ICE staff and ensure adequate ICE oversight over
the facility, ICE should ensure that staff follow up on concerns expressed.

According to Piedmont staff, the "Know Your
Rights" video is aired on the televisions inside the
housing units once per month, and new detainees'
should view the video as a part of their
orientation to the detention facility. According to
detainees, however, vieWings have been
inconsistent. One detainee, a head "trusty,"
stated that he had not seen a "Know Your
Rights" video in four months, and that it had not
been played in his pod for that length of time.
Another detainee, also a head trusty, remarked
that he had not seen the video in about a month
and a half, and he did not believe that it had been
detainees.
Detainees are not given a copy of the Inmate
Handbook, though many portions of the
Handbook pertain to them as residents of the
facility, and are not informed of a great deal of
information required under the Standards.
Instead, detainees are given a two-page document
with rules applicable to ICE detainees. (p.13 ,-2)
The two-page document lacks a great deal of
information required by the Standards: it does
not include any information whatsoever on
visitation; law library access; group legal rights
presentations; correspondence; grievance
procedures; detainee classification; sanctions
imposed for rule infractions; detainees' right to
protection from abuse and discrimination; or the
opportunity to submit questions and concerns to
ICE staff. It mentions telephone usage, but only
to describe how to obtain telephone time. (p.13
,-2)

l3.1 Standard 5, Detainee Grievance Procedures
• III.G. Detainee Handbook .... The grievance section of the
detainee handbook will provide notice of the following: 1.
The opportunity to file a grievance, both informal and formal.
2. The procedures for filing a grievance and appeal, including
the .availability of assistance in preparing a grievance. 3. The
procedures for resolving a grievance or appeal, including the
right to have the grievance referred to higher levels if the
detainee is not satisfied that the grievance has been adequately
resolved. 4. The procedures for contacting the [ICE] to

5. The policy prohibiting staff from harassing, disciplining,
punishing or otherwise retaliating against any detainee for
tiling a grievance. 6. The opportunity to file a complaint
about officer misconduct directly with the Justice Department

1 Inmate
Detainees are not made aware of the grievance
procedures. Although there is a Grievance Form
used by detainees to file formal grievances, and
the Inmate Handbook includes a section
g the Grievance Procedure, Captain
acknowledged that the Handbook was not
provided to detainees. (p. 18 ~3) One detainee
was not aware of the grievance form or of a
formal grievance procedure. (p. 19 ~1)
