General Comment #6B: The water fountain pressure is low at the 2D water fountains, adjust pressure. General Comment #10A. Storage is too low in the 2D mezzanine storage room, need to lift or remove the bottom shelves and make sure that the mattresses are not stored on the floor. General Comment #11A: Be sure to keep drawers under beds cleaned out.
Hamburgers arrived at 113 degrees F. They should be at least 140 degrees F. This continues to be a problem at both Hammond Rd facilities. All food holding units must be plugged in and turned on in advance at the downtown jail kitchen. They should reach 140 degrees F minimum before food is placed inside to deliver. This is not a recommendation, it is a requirement. Failure to comply may result in further action.
