(a) CDCR shall assign each county to a reception center (RC) institution for the delivery of new commitment State incarcerated persons.

(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 incarcerated person(s).

(c) If the ICU has been notified by the county that a new commitment incarcerated person 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 incarcerated person, or a county referral of an incarcerated person pursuant to PC Section 1203.03.

(d) A county is also entitled to reimbursement for mileage expenses incurred when transporting State incarcerated persons to a State institution. A mileage expense will be paid for a total round trip distance.

(e) Incarcerated persons 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 incarcerated person is medically capable for transport are required upon delivery. The incarcerated person'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 incarcerated person's cash, personal securities and property, a CDCR Form 104 (Rev. 07/24), Property and Cash Receipt -- Arrival, which is incorporated by reference, shall be completed.

(g) Each incarcerated person 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 incarcerated person's physical appearance. An incarcerated person who noticeably changes their 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 incarcerated person shall be informed of the departmental grooming standards and shall be afforded an opportunity to comply prior to being photographed. Each incarcerated person 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 incarcerated person 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 incarcerated person's refusal to comply with the departmental grooming standards. The CDC Form 128-B will be forwarded to records for the incarcerated person's initial classification committee review.

(i) All condemned male incarcerated persons shall be delivered to San Quentin State Prison, pursuant to Penal Code section 3600.

(j) All condemned female incarcerated persons shall be delivered to the Central California Women's Facility, pursuant to Penal Code section 3601.
