This facility is for adult inmates.

Northern Oregon Regional Correctional Facility (NORCOR) Adult is a regional jail facility that handles the intake from the Wasco County Sheriff's arrests but also from several surrounding counties located at 201 Webber St The Dalles, OR. This cooperative prison is funded by all of the counties that hold their detainees and sentenced inmates.

The housing of federal detainees is through a contractual agreement with the federal Immigration and US Marshall’s office. This contract stipulates that NORCOR will house Federal detainee’s under three condition’s; those who are charged with Federal offenses and are being detained while awaiting trial, individuals who have been sentenced and are awaiting designation and transport to a Bureau of Prisons facility, and individuals who are awaiting a hearing on their immigration status or deportation. These are individuals who are already legally in ICE’s custody.

Our agreement is to house, supervise and provide for basic needs while this individual is under our care. There are no County or State funds that are expended to cover their detainment. All costs are covered through our agreement with the Federal contract. NORCOR Serves four counties: Gilliam, Hood River, Sherman and Wasco counties

Per ORS 181A.820 subsection 2 our current procedure regarding those individuals (locals) booked into NORCOR that do not have a country of origin; consist of notifying Immigration and Customs officials, providing them with the individual's name, DOB, Current Charges and Identified place of Birth. If ICE determines that this person should be detained, they will initiate an I-203 and send that to us. The individual is allowed to bail/release unless we have received that form. We do not hold them waiting for this form. If someone has finished their sentence, been released by the court or posted bail they are not held unless we have a I-203 form which is an order to detain and has been generated to place them legally into ICE custody.

All individuals housed through Immigration and Customs must have an I-203 form which is an administrative document that accompanies every person placed into federal immigration detention. Form I-203 does not confer any authority to make an arrest. Its function is to keep track of the custody status of a person who is already legally in ICE’s custody and does not serve as a hold on an individual in local custody while ICE investigates their status. All detainees’ that are sent to NORCOR have final removal orders and are awaiting completion of the process.

NORCOR does not accept any individuals who are exclusively being held for only illegal immigration status. They must have a prior or current criminal conviction as well as their illegal immigration status in order for NORCOR to accept them. NORCOR will also accept those individuals who are facing pending Federal criminal prosecution that is in a pre-trial status.
