Sewer service at NCYCC and the former NCWF is provided by an existing gravity collection <br /> line that transports wastewater to City of Stockton treatment facilities. CDCR believes there is <br /> adequate capacity within the current agreement (800,000 gallons per day) to meet the needs <br /> of all facilities within the state property. The CHCF settlement agreement acknowledges the <br /> continuation of this agreement past its current expiration date (2018). The agreement clarifies <br /> that if the combined discharge rate of the existing and proposed facilities exceeds the existing <br /> historic wastewater agreement, then CDCR would purchase additional capacity and, if <br /> necessary, upgrade the capacity of the export line. Solid waste generated at the NCRF and <br /> DeWitt Nelson facility would be transported to the adjacent Austin Road landfill. <br /> The proposed facility would operate 24 hours a day, year-round, with three 8-hour shifts <br /> (watches). An estimated 350-400 staff would be employed at the proposed facility and would <br /> include correctional officers, administrative, and other types of support staff. Visiting hours <br /> would be by appointment only from 8:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m., seven days a week, and the <br /> average number of weekday visitors is estimated to be approximately 30 with weekend visitors <br /> estimated to be 100. <br /> Construction of the reentry facility is anticipated to begin in summer 2011; there will be an <br /> approximately 24 month construction schedule and a tentative activation date of winter 2013. <br /> Construction work shifts would generally be between 6 a.m. and 6 p.m., Monday through <br /> Friday, for the reentry facility. A construction staging area for NCRF would be located on a <br /> roughly 6-acre field west of the existing perimeter fence line and parking lot. Additional <br /> construction staging areas would be provided within the CHCF project site and in open areas <br /> within the DeWitt Nelson facility. All construction staging would occur within state property at <br /> NCYCC and NCWF. Parking for construction workers would be provided in the existing NCWF <br /> staff and visitor parking lots as well as on temporary parking lots to be developed for the CHCF <br /> and DeWitt Nelson projects. All parking for construction workers would be within the NCYCC <br /> state-owned property. <br /> DEWITT NELSON CONVERSION <br /> The proposed DeWitt Nelson project includes the conversion and reuse of the existing DeWitt <br /> Nelson facility to a semi-autonomous adult male medical and mental health facility. Depending <br /> on the final construction plans all or a portion of the existing buildings may be renovated, <br /> modified, or removed and replaced. The adjoining CHCF project is expected to provide primary <br /> administration and support for the proposed DeWitt Nelson facility. The proposed project would <br /> include housing, programming, healthcare facilities, inmate visiting and some support facilities. <br /> The project would contain three new housing units and the potential renovation of four existing <br /> dormitory housing units for the proposed inmate population (see Exhibit 4). The new housing <br /> units and four existing dormitories would house up to a maximum of 1,133 inmates. In addition, <br /> a proposed firing range would be located south of the DeWitt Nelson boundary near the <br /> existing detention basin just north of the landfill. Additional stormwater storage facilities may be <br /> developed near the existing detention basin. Access to the DeWitt Nelson site would be at the <br /> entrance on Austin Road to be developed for the CHCF project. Employee and visitor parking <br /> for the DeWitt Nelson facility would either be at the northeast corner of the project site or be <br /> provided in a shared parking lot to be developed on the east side of the adjacent CHCF <br /> project. <br /> NCRF and DeWitt Nelson Conversion Project Revised Notice of Preparation/lnitial Study <br /> California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation 11 August 2010 <br />
