SUBJECT:

Pomona City Jail 2006 Annual Detention Review

The Los Angeles Field Office, Office of Detention and Removal conducted a detention review of the
Pomona City Jail on May 25,2006. SDDO Chris Starnes conducted this review. This facility is
used for detainees requiring housing Jess than 72 hours.
The review measured compliance with the ICE Detention Standards. No other special assessments
were performed or requested at this time. Attached to this memorandum is a copy of the original
Form 324B Detention Review Fonns. All worksheets and working papers are maintained in the
appropriate file system and are available for review by the review authority.
Type of Review:
This review is a scheduled Operational Review to determine general compliance with established
Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) National Detention Standards.
Review Summary:
The following review summarizes only those standards not in full compliance. Each standard is
identified and a short summary is provided regarding standards or procedures not currently in
compliance. The facility has been accredited by the California Board of Corrections. Their
accreditation is current and in good standing. The facility meets all of the relevant National
Detention Standards. There are some minor differences in the policies that the Detention Standards
describe in comparison to the operating procedures of the facility. It appears that even though these
differences exist the facility is either adhering to the Standards or abiding by the intent of the
Standards. The differences noted are minor in nature and are caused by the small size ofthe facility.
There were 26 acceptable standards, two standards determined to be non-applicable and 0 deficient
standards.

Subject: Annual Detentiaeview Report
Page 2

The Pomona City Jail's ability to directly supervise and control their detainee population's behavior
has proven to be effective. Overall the review indicated substantial compliance with the Ice
Detention Standards. The staff! encOlmtered were courteous, knowledgeable and professional. I
believe it is in the Service's best interest to continue contracting with this facility.

Constraints of difficulties experienced during the review:
During the review, no constraints or abnormal difficulties were encountered. Staff and detainees
were cooperative and available to assist in the review process.

At Risk or Repeat Findings:
There were no ICE Detention Standards found to be at risk during the inspection of this facility.
Recommended Rating and Justification:
The result of a careful evaluation and review ofthe procedures and operation reflects the ability of
trus facility to provide ICE detainees with the proper and humane care that is mandated by the
Standards. The deficiencies that exist do not detract from the acceptable accomplishments of the
vital functions. It is the Reviewer in Charge recommendation that the facility receive a rating of
" Acceptable ".
RIC Assurance Statement:
All findings ofthis review have been documented on Form G-324B and are supported by the written
documentation contained in the review file.
