This facility is for adult inmates.

The inmates housed at Delta Conservation Camp #8 located at 6246 Lambie Rd in Suisun City, CA are placed according to their custody level (determined by a number of factors including the past criminal history and the length of their sentence). There are ample educational and vocational training programs for all inmates, especially ones that show a willingness to learn new things that will prepare them for a better life when they are released. The mission is to promote and prepare the offender to leave in better shape than when they arrived, giving them the best chance to never come back and thus lower the state's recidivism rate.

Camp History – The Delta Conservation Camp #8, was opened in June of 1988. The camp is jointly operated by the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR) and Cal Fire. The main mission of the camp is to provide inmate fire crews for fire suppression in the Sonoma, Lake, Napa Unit and the Solano County area, although, crews can be dispatched throughout the state. In addition to fire suppression, inmate hand crews provide a workforce for conservation projects. The in-camp Cal Fire project is a Digital Decal Sign Shop, which produces letters, numbers and striping of vehicles for fire and law enforcement agencies.

The CDCR is responsible for the security, supervision, care, and discipline of the inmates. Cal Fire maintains the camp, supervises work of the inmate fire crews and is responsible for the custody of the inmates on their daily projects. CDCR staff may accompany inmate crews while assigned to emergencies to assist in the care and security of the inmates. Inmates must have 24-hour a day direct supervision while on work projects and while assigned to emergency incidents.

Inmate Programs – Delta Conservation Camp currently has religious sponsors, who provide religious services for the inmates assigned to the camp. These services are provided once a week.

Community service projects – During the 2018/19 fiscal year, Delta Conservation Camp provided local communities and state agencies with 103,056 hours of work through conservation and work projects. Additionally Delta Camp crews provided 109,420 hours of work on emergency incidents (firefighting and emergency response). It is estimated through the emergency responses to fires and work projects, the inmates of Delta Camp provided a cost avoidance of $2,124,760 to the taxpayers of California.
