s.
(a) In lockups that are not utilized to house detainees overnight, before placing any detainees
together in a holding cell, staff shall consider whether, based on the information before them, a
detainee may be at a high risk of being sexually abused and
, when appropriate, shall take
necessary steps to mitigate any such danger to the detainee...
The agency shall provide multiple ways for detainees to privately report sexual abuse and
sexual harassment, retaliation by other detainees or staff for reporting sexual abuse and sexual
harassment, and staff neglect or violation of
responsibilities that may have contributed to such
incidents...
The agency shall develop a written institutional plan to coordinate actions taken
in response
to a lockup incident of sexual abuse, among staff first responders, medical and mental health
practitioners, investigators, and agency leadership...

the agency’s behalf shall enter into or renew any collective bargaining agreement or other
agreement that limits the agency’s ability to remove alleged sta

what extent discipline is warranted...
For each lockup, the agency shall develop and document a staffing plan that provides for
adequate levels of staffing, and, where applicable, video monitoring, to protect detainees against

sexual abuse. In calculating adequate staffing levels and determining the need for video
monitori

determine, and document whether
adjustments are needed to:
(1) The staffing plan established pursuant to paragraph (a) of this section;

security staff shall provide such detainees with heightened protection, to include continuous
