their offenses and sentences, after the appellate process, allow
such a transfer. Department of Defense (DoD) guidance
reference(s), directs the maximum sentence length for a Level II
Facility. Consolidated Brigs/Level II Confinement Facilities
may provide local pretrial confinement, if economically
warranted. Where economies and efficiencies are present, and
through coordination with the DoD Corrections Council,
COMNAVPERSCOM (PERS-00D1) or CMC (PSL Corrections) may designate
facility classifications as appropriate.
(2) Waterfront Brig/Level I Confinement Facility.
Located on operating Navy or Marine Corps installations to
service local needs and normally contain a correctional custody
unit (CCU) and a short-term confinement facility that houses
pretrial detainees; prisoners who will return to duty; or
prisoners who are being discharged after serving short
sentences, usually less than a year. Programs emphasize
military discipline, training, work, and skills needed to
succeed in the military environment.
(3) Detention Facilities. Personnel may be detained in
a detention space or a holding cell. COMNAVPERSCOM (PERS-00D1)
or Commandant of the Marine Corps (CMC) (PSL Corrections) shall
be notified in writing, via the chain of command, when a
detention space or a holding cell has been established or
disestablished.
(4) Pretrial Confinement Facility. Pretrial Confinement
Facilities may be established in areas where: a confinement
facility is not readily accessible, there is a need for pretrial
and very short-term post-trial confinement, average number of
detainees/prisoners does not justify more than 20 confinement
spaces, and the full range of correctional programs provided by
confinement facilities is not required. Commander Navy Personnel
Command (PERS-00D1) or Commandant of the Marine Corps (CMC) (PSL
Corrections) shall establish programs and staffing guidance
separately. These facilities, when designated by SECNAV as a
naval place of confinement, may be used for extended pretrial
confinement and, as a matter of necessity in some cases, post-
trial confinement up to 30 days.
