INTRODUCTION:
All Post Orders, including these Special Instructions are intended
as a guideline only and not all circumstances can be anticipated
or discussed. All officers are expected to use good judgment in
decision making during times of unusual incidents. It is imperative
that officers must be notified immediately should a crisis occur.
It is also imperative that all officers have broad knowledge
concerning the BOP policies and local supplements and procedures
governing this post. The security of the institution and the safety
of staff, as well as inmates, is the primary function of the
institution and the responsibility of all staff. The Control Center
has a critical responsibility for maintaining institutional security
and the prevention of escapes. Officers assigned to this post must
be alert for any unusual activities and behaviors that may be
occurring throughout the institution.
The Control Center Officer may be one of the first employees a visitor
comes into contact with. It is important that the officer presents
a neat and professional image. The assigned Control Center Officer
must never leave the Control Center unless properly relieved or with
the Operations Lieutenants permission. While in the Control Center
the officer will always have in their possession, the key ring which
manually operates the inner door of the control center, in the event
the officer is trapped in the Control Center Sally Port.
Although the entrances to the Control Center are primarily
electronically operated and cannot be opened at the same time, they
can be operated manually; however, AT NO TIME WILL BOTH DOORS BE
OPENED AT THE SAME TIME. The following are the majority of areas
governed by policy that the Control Center Officer must know, follow
and has contact with most frequently.
POST ORDERS:
All correctional posts have Post Orders describing the officer's
duties. The original copy is to remain in the Lieutenant's Office
and a copy is to be secured in the Control Center for officer's
reference. Each officer is required to review the Post Orders and
indicate such review by signing the original copy in the Lieutenant's
Office and on their post prior to assuming their post at quarterly
changes, monthly rotations, or after being away from the post for
a long time.

KEY CONTROL:
The Control Center Officer will be responsible for the issuing of
all keys from the Control Center. A chit must be received from the
staff member, prior to the issuance of keys.
Keys will not be given to inmates or non-staff members or be exposed
to inmates where they can observe the key cuts or codes. Reference
to keys, key numbers, and areas to which they access, etc., will
not be made in the presence of inmates or non-staff. Officers will
never give up their keys to other staff members without first
receiving a chit from that person. Officers are to count their keys
upon issue, prior to turning them into the Control Center, and after
receiving them from another employee. Broken or bent keys will be
reported immediately to the Operations Lieutenant and/or the Security
Officer. The Evening Watch Control Center Officer will physically
count all keys on each existing key ring in the Control Center,
verifying the number of keys on the ring with the numbered tag attached
to the ring. The officer will then place the number of keys in the
blank on the official key count form which corresponds with the key
ring number. The Evening Watch Control Center Officer will also
inspect all keys for cracks, bends, or other damage when counting
the keys. Any damage will be reported to the Security Officer in
writing.
The Control Center Officer, upon assuming the post, will verify that
each key hook has either a set of keys or an employee's chit on the
hook. This inspection will be noted in the Control Center Log Book.
All key or equipment hooks will have the keys, equipment, or an
employee's chit on them. Issued metal chits are the ONLY authorized
form of chits. Paper chits are not to be used. Temporary chits
will be issued from the Lieutenant's Office for those needing them.
A board in the Control Center will house all normally issued keys.
They are as follows:
1. WHITE: General issue and can be given to any employee.
2. BLACK: Area restricted; these are not restricted to employees
assigned in that area, however, these keys are restricted to
all other staff.
3. BLUE: Fully restricted; a restricted key form must be utilized
each time the key is issued.
4. RED: Emergency Keys; these keys will be utilized for emergencies
only. Any other issuance of these keys will require a
restricted key form.
