Findings and Recommendations 1 findings

During the 2007 calendar year the Trinity River Conservation Camp, through conservation and work projects, provided the local community with 3,528 work hours of which there was no charge. In addition, projects for conservation work and fire defense improvements for State and Federal agencies, the inmates provided 47,802 work hours plus 110,000 hours of fire fighting. Inmates do the maintenance on roads near and leading to the TRCC #3 and assist in plowing snow during the winter months. It is estimated the inmates provided a cost avoidance of $3,000,000.00 to the taxpayers of California. The inmate crews are available to any government agency, county, city, state or federal project. The cost per day for this crew is $200.00, which includes 17 men, supervision and some light equipment.

It is recommended that the County continues to utilize the crews to provide assistance in the Summer cleanup of the Trinity County Schools, maintenance of the Trinity County Parks, general maintenance at the Golden Age Center and wherever else needed. The work crews provide great savings to the County budget. CONCLUSION: The facilities are in excellent condition, with all of the work being supplied by the inmates. There are extensive criteria to be met before an inmate is approved for a conservation camp.
