Document Description
The proposed project as approved by the California Department of Corrections involves the construction of a new Condemned Inmate Complex (CIC) at SQSP. The CIC would consist of 1,024 cells that could safely house 1,408 condemned male inmates. The CIC would result in a net increase of 795 inmates at SQSP. The CIC woud be devoted to the safe and secure housing of condemned male inmates at SQSP and would consit of two semi-autonomous maximum security facilities with housing, service, and support space. The CIC would be about 44 feet tall, a design labeled the "stacked design option" in the EIR. The semi-autonomous facilities would be physically separated from each other by perimeter security (i.e. fencing and walls) and would incorporate modified version of CDC's highly secure 180-degree housing units. A lethal electrified fence would be constructed around the CIC. Approximately 586 additional staff would be employed at the CIC. Mitigation measures as identified in the required Statement of Findings have been incorporated as required into the project's Mitigation Monitoring Program as a condition of project approval.
