Plaintiffs, STIPULATION AND ORDER RE: MODIFICATION OF v. DEFENDANTS' SHORT-TERM PROJECT TO PILOT DOUBLE BUNK AT SALINAS VALLEY STATE PRISON ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER, et al., Defendants.

On March 31, 2009, this Court ordered that Defendants develop and file concrete proposals to meet the short-term, intermediate-term, and long-range beds needs of the Coleman class members. (Docket No. 3556.) Defendants submitted their bed plan on May 26, 2009. (Docket No. 3592.) As one of their short-term bed projects, Defendants proposed a pilot project to double bunk inmate-patients requiring an Intermediate Care Facility level of care in one 10-cell wing in Treatment Center 1 of the Salinas Valley Psychiatric Program at Salinas Valley State Prison.

complete. (Docket No. 3653.) Defendants now seek to modify their May 26, 2009 bed plan to pilot double bunk the inmate-patients in one 10-cell wing in Treatment Center 2, rather than in Treatment Center 1. Defendants have represented that double bunking in Treatment Center 2 provides a better treatment option because it has more space available for treatment and programming, and Plaintiffs agree to this change based on that representation. The parties, by and through their counsel, stipulate that Defendants' short-term, emergency project to pilot double bunk the inmate-patients in one 10-cell wing in Treatment Center 1 of the Salinas Valley Psychiatric Program at Salinas Valley State Prison, shall be modified so that the pilot double-bunk project will proceed forward in Treatment Center 2, rather than in Treatment Center 1.
