Facility Mailing and Service Information

This is a federal contract detention facility. The facility may house U.S. Marshals Service prisoners, ICE detainees, or both, depending on the current contract and population.

Always verify the person's current custody location before mailing because federal detainees and prisoners can be transferred. Use the person's full legal name and the appropriate identifier: A-Number for ICE detainees, or the current federal/facility identifier for USMS prisoners.

General mail, legal/special mail, publications, packages, money and visitation can have different procedures. Current facility-specific instructions take priority.

Books, magazines, publications and packages are governed by the receiving facility's current federal-contract detention rules.
