Security Levels
Minimum Camps
Minimum-security institutions known as Camps have dormitory housing, a relatively low staff-to-inmate ratio, and limited perimeter fencing. These institutions are work—and program-oriented, and many are located adjacent to larger institutions or on military bases, where inmates help serve the labor needs of the larger institution or base.
Satellite Camps: These are associated with higher security institutions.
Low
Low-security Federal Correctional Institutions (FCI) have double-fenced perimeters, mostly dormitory or cubicle housing, and strong work and program components. The staff-to-inmate ratio in these institutions is higher than in minimum-security facilities.
Medium
Medium-security FCIs (and USPs designated to house medium-security inmates) have strengthened perimeters (often double fences with electronic detection systems), mostly cell-type housing, a wide variety of work and treatment programs, an even higher staff-to-inmate ratio than low-security FCIs, and even greater internal controls.
High
High-security institutions, also known as United States Penitentiaries (USP), have highly secured perimeters (featuring walls or reinforced fences), multiple- and single-occupant cell housing, the highest staff-to-inmate ratio, and close control of inmate movement.
Federal Correctional Complexes (FCC)
Correctional Complexes: Many BOP institutions belong to Federal Correctional Complexes (FCC). At FCC, institutions with different missions and security levels are located nearby.
Administrative
Administrative facilities have special missions, such as the detention of pretrial offenders, the treatment of inmates with serious or chronic medical problems, or the containment of extremely dangerous, violent, or escape-prone inmates.
• Metropolitan Correctional Centers (MCC),
• Metropolitan Detention Centers (MDC),
• Federal Detention Centers (FDC), and
• Federal Medical Centers (FMC):
• Administrative-Maximum (ADX) U.S. Penitentiary.
• Administrative facilities, except the ADX, can hold inmates in all security categories.
Federal Satellite Low
Federal Satellite Low Security: FCI Elkton, FCI Jesup, and FCI La Tuna have low-security facilities affiliated with but not adjacent to the main institution.
Secure Female
Secure Female Facility: Currently, the BOP has one Secure Female Facility (SFF) unit (located at USP Hazelton, WV) designed to house female inmates.
