Corrections staff at the time of booking. Only Transport Staff authorized by Walla <br />Walla County may present a prisoner for confinement in KCJ pursuant to this ILA <br />unless previously arranged and approved in writing by the Jail Commander or his/her <br />designee or superior. Any prisoner transported by Walla Walla County to the KCJ with <br />documentation showing that the prisoner is being held pursuant to an order entered by <br />any court in Walla Walla County will be presumed to be acceptable for confinement <br />except as otherwise provided herein. <br />B. If a Walla Walla County Offender behaves in such a manner that disciplinary action is <br />needed to correct the behavior, the Walla Walla County offender will be subjected to <br />the same disciplinary process utilized by the County for the KCJ offenders. If a <br />sanction applied results in loss of good time, KCJ will notify the Walla Walla County <br />contact. If the offender behavior is to the level that KCJ determines they are no longer <br />appropriate for KCJ, notice will be made to Walla Walla County and the offender <br />removed from KCJ via either the regularly scheduled transport or as can be reasonably <br />arranged by Walla Walla County through special transport. <br />VI. Jail and Medical Services <br />A. Inmates deemed Walla Walla Prisoners for medical purposes shall mean any person <br />incarcerated pursuant to this ILA. These prisoners shall receive such medical, <br />psychiatric, and dental treatment when emergent and necessary to safeguard their <br />health while housed in the Kittitas County Jail in the same manner and to the same <br />extent as any other prisoner. KCJ will provide or arrange for providing of such medical, <br />psychiatric, and dental services. Except for routine minor medical services provided by <br />the County within the Kittitas County Jail, Walla Walla County shall ultimately be <br />responsible and pay directly or reimburse the KCJ for any and all costs associated with <br />the delivery of any emergency or necessary medical service provided to Walla Walla <br />Prisoners. Walla Walla County shall be responsible for any and all emergent or <br />necessary medical, dental, and psychiatric treatment provided outside of the Kittitas <br />County Jail and shall be billed thereafter. <br />B. If the County becomes aware that a Walla Walla Prisoner is in need of medical health <br />care requiring the assistance of a medical health care services provider outside of the <br />Kittitas County Jail, then the County shall make reasonable effort to notify Walla Walla <br />County prior to obtaining said service. In the case of emergency, the County may notify <br />Walla Walla County after the service has been provided. Due to the realities of <br />transporting prisoners between Walla Walla County and the KCJ, it is anticipated that <br />other than routine medical appointments scheduled in advance, KCJ shall perform such <br />transport and other obligations needed to address the health needs of Walla Walla <br />Prisoners in the same manner as any other inmate of KCJ. Walla Walla County shall <br />be responsible for the cost of all transport and other arrangements. To the extent <br />possible, the parties agree that Walla Walla County will not seek to place its prisoners <br />in KCJ if significant medical care is reasonably anticipated. <br />Interlocal Agreement for the Housing of Hunates Walla Walla County and <br />Kittitas County <br />Page 4 of 13 <br />
