Cal. Code Regs. tit. 15 § 3075 : Crime Prevention and Corrections — Adult Institutions, Programs and Parole — Rules and Regulations of Adult Operations and Programs — Intake, Release and Discharge of Inmates — Initial Intake and County Reimbursements

(a) CDCR shall assign each county to a reception center (RC) institution for the delivery of new commitment State inmates.
(b) The county shall first contact the designated RC institution, on or before the Friday prior to the week of transfer, to notify and coordinate the upcoming delivery of the inmates(s).
(1) In the event the RC is unable to accept delivery of the inmate(s), the county shall contact the CDCR Intake Control Unit (ICU). The ICU will make every effort to direct the county to an alternate RC.
(A) If ICU is unable to provide an alternate RC for delivery, the county shall follow CDCR's notification process, pursuant to subsection (c), to be eligible for reimbursement.
(B) If ICU notifies a county that space is available at a RC after previously being denied, the county shall deliver the inmate(s) within two working days (Monday through Friday, excluding holidays), from CDCR's notification of bed availability.
(C) If the county is unable to deliver the inmate(s) within two working days, reimbursement will not be authorized for any additional days.
(D) Inmates shall be delivered in the order they were notified to the ICU.
(c) If the ICU has been notified by the county that a new commitment inmate is ready to be transported, and the department is unable to accept delivery by the fifth working day (Monday through Friday, excluding holidays), pursuant to Penal Code (PC) Section 4016.5(a), a county shall be reimbursed for costs incurred resulting from the detention of a new commitment State inmate, or a county referral of an inmate pursuant to PC Section 1203.03.
(1) CDCR shall reimburse a county for each day of an inmate's detention, starting on the day following the fifth working day after ICU is notified of the inmate's denied delivery.
(2) The county shall not be reimbursed if, upon notification of the pending transport, ICU directs the county to deliver the State inmate to an alternate RC and the county refuses or is unable to transport inmates to the alternate RC.
(3) The county shall not be reimbursed for the detention of an inmate(s) for any period of time prior to notification and within the five-day time period after notification.
(4) CDCR shall not reimburse a claim that is in excess of six months from the close of the month in which the costs were incurred.
(d) A county is also entitled to reimbursement for mileage expenses incurred when transporting State inmates to a State institution. A mileage expense will be paid for a total round trip distance.
(e) Inmates received by the department shall be accompanied by either a copy of the minute order or an abstract of the judgment certified by the clerk of the court or judge. Confidential medical/mental health documents indicating that the inmate is medically capable for transport are required upon delivery. The inmate's identity shall be verified by staff to prevent inadvertent acceptance of a person not legally committed to the department.
(f) Upon staff's receipt of an inmate's cash, personal securities and property, a CDCR Form 104 (Rev. 6/13), Inmate Property and Cash Receipt - Arrival, which is incorporated by reference, shall be completed.
(g) Each inmate shall be photographed and an identification card prepared. The identification photo shall be updated every five years or when there is a distinct change in the inmate's physical appearance. An inmate who noticeably changes his/her appearance will be charged for the cost of the updated identification photo/card, if the distinct change occurs anytime within the five-year period.
(h) Each inmate shall be informed of the departmental grooming standards and shall be afforded an opportunity to comply prior to being photographed. Each inmate will be advised that failure to comply with departmental grooming standards may result in the issuance of an administrative rule violation report and that a repeated pattern of administrative rule violations, may result in the inmate being deemed a program failure pursuant to Section 3000. The processing officer will document on a CDC Form 128-B (Rev. 4/74), General Chrono, the inmate's refusal to comply with the departmental grooming standards. The CDC Form 128-B will be forwarded to records for the inmate's initial classification committee review.
