During our unannounced inspection of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s (ICE) Golden State Annex (Golden State) in McFarland, California, we found that Golden State complied with ICE’s Performance-Based National Detention Standards 2011 (PBNDS 2011), as revised in December 2016, for use of force, the voluntary work program, access to the law library and legal services, and detainee segregation with one noted exception.
