FOR OFFICIAL USE ONL Y (LAW ENFORCEMENT SENSITIVE)

Recommendations
.•

It is recommended that ICE Infonnation Request Fonns be made available for use by ICE
detainees.

RIC Issues and Concerns
Telephone Access
•

Staff should post a notification by the detainee telephones infonning detainees that calls
may be monitored.

•

The OIG phone number for reporting abuse should be programmed into the detainee
telephone system and checked regularly to ensure it is operating properly.

Detainee Grievance Procedures
•

It is recommended that grievances be tracked to ensure staff identifies the classification
or designation of the person submitting, i.e., ICE or Non-ICE detainee. Staff should track

FOR OFFICIAL USE ONL Y (LAW ENFORCEMENT SENSITIVE)

Entrance Procedures
•

It is recommended that the front entrance officer ensure the identity of everyone entering
and exiting the facility.

•

Ensure all visitors sign the visitor logbook when entering and exiting the facility.

Recommended Rating and Justification
It is the Reviewer-in-Charge (RIC) recommendation that the facility receive a rating of
"Acceptable." The Acceptable rating is based on the manner in which the Pomona City Jail staff
carries out their daily mission, in a most professional manner, while meeting the needs of those
housed in the facility. It is also recommended by the RIC that a Plan of Action be developed to
identify and implement necessary corrective actions.
The Pomona City Jail houses adult male/female inmates/detainees for ICE, the
County of Los Angeles, and the City of Pomona. Although the jail is small, it is well equipped
to function as an under 72-Hour ICE holding facility. The jail is very clean and staff are
professional and display a positive commitment to excellence.
During this review, a fire occurred in a clothes dryer (industrial type). Due of the thick acrid
smoke, it was necessary to evacuate the facility. Jail staff acted quickly and professionally.
Each inmate was restrained (no detainees were being housed at this time) and escorted to a
predetermined staging area. The local fire department responded and the fire was extinguished.
After the Fire Department deemed the facility safe, the inmates were returned to their assigned
cells without incident.
RIC Assurance Statement
All findings of this review have been documented on the Detention Review Worksheet and are
supported by the written documentation contained in the review file.

standard. Staff prepares a complete inventory of each
detainee's possessions. The detainee receives a copy.
Two officers are present during the processing of detainee
funds and valuables during admissions processing to the
facility. Both officers verify funds and valuables.
Staff completes Form 1-387 or similar form for CDFs and
IGSAs for every lost or missing property claim. Facilities
forward all 1-387 claims to ICE.
Detainees are issued appropriate and sufficient clothing and
