Photo: Michael Montgomery/KQED\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>But the initiative is raising concern among prisoner rights advocates and some experts who worry that it will do little to improve stark conditions or cut the backlog of inmates awaiting placement into the units.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s nothing I can see in this policy that will change the flow of inmates into these very expensive facilities,” said David Ward, a retired University of Minnesota sociologist who served on an influential 2007 expert panel appointed by the state to study how California manages prison gangs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At issue are California’s four Security Housing Units, which are designed to isolate the state’s most dangerous inmates, including those connected to violent prison gangs. The units routinely have been denounced as inhumane by civil rights groups and were the focus of widespread hunger strikes last year.\u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Early next month, the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation will begin modifying operations in the special units under a plan that has been in development for more than a year. The department has asserted that nearly all 3,000 inmates being held in the facilities – at Pelican Bay State Prison, California State Prison Corcoran, the California Correctional Institution in Tehachapi and California State Prison Sacramento – are active in prison gangs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We've had years of violence in our facilities and in the community that have been driven by prison gangs,\" said Terri McDonald, the department's undersecretary of operations. \"We're going to implement this policy in a thoughtful, measured way to ensure institutional and community security.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Formal changes to state regulations could take several years, she said. In the meantime, the department is implementing the policy on a pilot basis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under the plan, inmates are eligible to work their way out of the special units in three to four years if they complete special programs alongside prisoners from rival groups and do not engage in gang “behavior or activities.” McDonald said inmates will not be required to divulge inside information about the gangs in order to earn transfers out of the units, a controversial practice known as “debriefing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Other changes include new criteria to determine who can be sent to the units.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under current rules, an inmate is automatically placed in a Security Housing Unit if he is identified as a member or associate of one of seven prison gangs. According to a \u003ca href=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/426284-stg-draft-policy-3-1-12.html\" target=\"_blank\">policy draft\u003c/a> released by the corrections department in March, prison gang associates would be sent to isolation units only if they were “engaged in serious criminal gang behavior or a pattern of violent behavior.” The department also would target dangerous members of any group considered a threat to prison security, including street gangs and extremist groups.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The changes will give prison staff more flexibility in dealing with a range of “security threat groups,” according to an Aug. 30 corrections department \u003ca href=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/426259-security-threat-group-notice-from-cdcr.html\" target=\"_blank\">notice\u003c/a> sent to the California Correctional Peace Officers Association, the powerful union representing prison guards.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The new policies will put California more closely in line with “recognized national standards and strategies,” staving off the “inevitable litigation and court mandated changes the State would face by remaining exclusively reliant on the current … system,” according to the document.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But revisions in a June 29 corrections \u003ca href=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/426255-stg-policy-7-0.html\" target=\"_blank\">document\u003c/a> obtained by \u003ca href=\"http://californiawatch.org\" target=\"_blank\">California Watch\u003c/a>, The Bay Citizen's sister site, suggest that officials are moving away from the narrower focus on specific criminal or violent acts.

The department has asserted that nearly all 3,000 inmates being held in the facilities – at Pelican Bay State Prison, California State Prison Corcoran, the California Correctional Institution in Tehachapi and California State Prison Sacramento – are active in prison gangs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We've had years of violence in our facilities and in the community that have been driven by prison gangs,\" said Terri McDonald, the department's undersecretary of operations. \"We're going to implement this policy in a thoughtful, measured way to ensure institutional and community security.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Formal changes to state regulations could take several years, she said. In the meantime, the department is implementing the policy on a pilot basis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under the plan, inmates are eligible to work their way out of the special units in three to four years if they complete special programs alongside prisoners from rival groups and do not engage in gang “behavior or activities.” McDonald said inmates will not be required to divulge inside information about the gangs in order to earn transfers out of the units, a controversial practice known as “debriefing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Other changes include new criteria to determine who can be sent to the units.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under current rules, an inmate is automatically placed in a Security Housing Unit if he is identified as a member or associate of one of seven prison gangs. According to a \u003ca href=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/426284-stg-draft-policy-3-1-12.html\" target=\"_blank\">policy draft\u003c/a> released by the corrections department in March, prison gang associates would be sent to isolation units only if they were “engaged in serious criminal gang behavior or a pattern of violent behavior.” The department also would target dangerous members of any group considered a threat to prison security, including street gangs and extremist groups.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The changes will give prison staff more flexibility in dealing with a range of “security threat groups,” according to an Aug. 30 corrections department \u003ca href=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/426259-security-threat-group-notice-from-cdcr.html\" target=\"_blank\">notice\u003c/a> sent to the California Correctional Peace Officers Association, the powerful union representing prison guards.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The new policies will put California more closely in line with “recognized national standards and strategies,” staving off the “inevitable litigation and court mandated changes the State would face by remaining exclusively reliant on the current … system,” according to the document.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But revisions in a June 29 corrections \u003ca href=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/426255-stg-policy-7-0.html\" target=\"_blank\">document\u003c/a> obtained by \u003ca href=\"http://californiawatch.org\" target=\"_blank\">California Watch\u003c/a>, The Bay Citizen's sister site, suggest that officials are moving away from the narrower focus on specific criminal or violent acts.

There is no battery big enough to store power for the Golden State.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"You can't bottle up electricity right now,\" McCorkle said. \"We are creating energy as soon as it's provided.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>McCorkle said Flex Alerts are called whenever increased demand threatens to put additional stress on the power grid. That increased demand risks causing fatigue in the power equipment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Of course, Californians might be able to avoid Flex Alerts by following the Flex Alert conservation recommendations throughout the summer, even when alerts aren't called. Peak demand for energy today is forecast at 47,500 megawatts; the state has the resources to produce about 54,000 megawatts of power, according to the \u003ca href=\"http://www.caiso.com/Pages/Today's-Outlook-Details.aspx\">CISO website\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>McCorkle said Flex Alerts typically reduce demand by about 1,000 megawatts. She noted that conservation is particularly important this summer due to the loss of the San Onofre nuclear power plant, \u003ca href=\"http://www.mercurynews.com/breaking-news/ci_21308274/rate-cut-suggested-san-onofre-ratepayers\">which has been shut down since January due to a damaged generator\u003c/a>. The plant had been generating about 2,200 megawatts at any given time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Californians have never demanded more power than the state can provide in the 10 years since Flex Alerts were created, McCorkle said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_73179\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2012/08/flexalert.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-73179\" title=\"flexalert\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2012/08/flexalert.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"586\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">California's power outlook as of 2 p.m. Image courtesy of the California ISO.\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You can find up-to-date information about power use in California on the \u003ca href=\"http://www.caiso.com/Pages/default.aspx\">CISO website\u003c/a>; for more about Flex Alerts, head to \u003ca href=\"http://www.flexalert.org/\">FlexAlert.org\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The National Weather Service has issued excessive-heat warnings from Santa Barbara County through southeastern California and in much of the San Joaquin Valley.\u003c/p>\n\n",

California ISO Spokesperson Stephanie McCorkle explained that you can't store energy conserved at other times of the year to use in the summer. There is no battery big enough to store power for the Golden State.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"You can't bottle up electricity right now,\" McCorkle said. \"We are creating energy as soon as it's provided.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>McCorkle said Flex Alerts are called whenever increased demand threatens to put additional stress on the power grid. That increased demand risks causing fatigue in the power equipment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Of course, Californians might be able to avoid Flex Alerts by following the Flex Alert conservation recommendations throughout the summer, even when alerts aren't called. Peak demand for energy today is forecast at 47,500 megawatts; the state has the resources to produce about 54,000 megawatts of power, according to the \u003ca href=\"http://www.caiso.com/Pages/Today's-Outlook-Details.aspx\">CISO website\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>McCorkle said Flex Alerts typically reduce demand by about 1,000 megawatts. She noted that conservation is particularly important this summer due to the loss of the San Onofre nuclear power plant, \u003ca href=\"http://www.mercurynews.com/breaking-news/ci_21308274/rate-cut-suggested-san-onofre-ratepayers\">which has been shut down since January due to a damaged generator\u003c/a>. The plant had been generating about 2,200 megawatts at any given time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Californians have never demanded more power than the state can provide in the 10 years since Flex Alerts were created, McCorkle said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_73179\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2012/08/flexalert.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-73179\" title=\"flexalert\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2012/08/flexalert.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"586\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">California's power outlook as of 2 p.m. Image courtesy of the California ISO.\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You can find up-to-date information about power use in California on the \u003ca href=\"http://www.caiso.com/Pages/default.aspx\">CISO website\u003c/a>; for more about Flex Alerts, head to \u003ca href=\"http://www.flexalert.org/\">FlexAlert.org\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The National Weather Service has issued excessive-heat warnings from Santa Barbara County through southeastern California and in much of the San Joaquin Valley.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
