Reception Unit <br />The reception unit provides 3,000 square feet of space for intake processing of new <br />residents and those in transit to or from other institutions. Facilities include an open staff <br />workstation with visibility into all areas, photo and fingerprint identification area, an <br />informal waiting area, secure individual and group holding rooms, shower and clothing <br />change room, and an exam room for medical screening. <br />Inmate property would be collected and temporarily stored here, but moved to a central <br />property room on a daily basis for long-term storage. <br />Segregation Unit <br />This unit provides short-term secure housing for administrative segregation, transients and <br />secure medical isolation. Provided are two modules totaling 8,258 gross square feet <br />constructed within the existing print shop space, each with 21 single -occupancy "wet" cells <br />of 80 square feet each for a total of 42 segregation beds. The cells open onto a central <br />dayroom space which also provides access to showers, janitor closet and outdoor <br />recreation. <br />Entry to the unit will be from the main hall through a secure sallyport. A group counseling <br />room off the dayroom provides limited professional visiting and programming capability. <br />A secure control station provides electric control of all cell and sallyport doors and <br />electronic monitoring and communications for the unit. The control station also has <br />indirect observation of one of the two dayrooms, with roving staff providing additional, <br />more direct supervision of the housing areas. <br />Cells are single occupancy, with steel bunk, desk, stool and combination toilet/lavatory. <br />Access to natural light will be by means of windows and skylights in the dayrooms, with <br />glass in and above the door providing borrowed light into each cell. <br />Page 47 <br />
