Dear Mr. Paton:
A question has been raised by one of the private sector partners regarding ttite ability for
offenders to have access to the Internet in the course of daily business activkies. I have
enclosed for your review a copy of Department of Corrections Policy 280.92., Offender
Access to Electronic Data, which specifically addresses this issue.
1

Policy 280.925, Section II C, states that physical security.barriers must be in!'place to
ensure that offenders are restricted from accessing the Internet, LANIWAN <rocal Area
Networks and Wide Area Networks), dial-in access (modems), E-Mail, and o~-Iine
services. Only Civilian staff is allowed to ·have access to these areas. If the$e
applications are necessary for your operation, please let me know prior to in_.tallation so
that I can work with appropriate institution staff ~o ensure that proper securitY barriers
will be in place.
.
I

If you have any questions regarding use of computers by offenders, please give me a
call at 360-586-7552.

Sincerely,
