About this file
This document is an Executive Directive (OPS.110.0033) issued by the Maryland Department of Public Safety and Correctional Services establishing minimum procedural requirements for entry and exit procedures at all state correctional facilities. The directive applies to all Department correctional facilities, including detention facilities and pre-release facilities, and establishes protocols for controlling pedestrian and vehicular traffic, conducting searches, preventing contraband introduction, and ensuring the safety of visitors, inmates, and employees. The directive became effective June 1, 2016, and supersedes three prior directives (DOC.110.0033, DPDS.110.0033, and PATX.110.0037), consolidating their provisions into a uniform policy. The document specifies comprehensive entry and exit procedures including mandatory frisk searches of all individuals entering facilities, walk-through scanner requirements, prohibited and restricted items lists, employee gate pass requirements, and vehicle search protocols.
The directive establishes operational procedures rather than a procurement or contracting matter and does not contain pricing terms, set-aside provisions, incumbent information, or funding requirements. All individuals entering correctional facilities, including employees, visitors, and contractors, must comply with standardized search procedures and display appropriate identification. Managing officials are responsible for ensuring facility procedures comply with the directive, maintaining entry and exit cadres trained in search procedures, posting notices of prohibited items, and conducting annual evaluations of walk-through scanner placement and effectiveness. The directive includes detailed attachment forms for walk-through scanner inspections, prohibited and restricted items lists, employee gate passes, and inmate gate passes. Specific provisions address weapons handling, package inspections, employee personal deliveries, inmate work details, emergency service provider entry, and vehicle security protocols requiring securing steering wheels with devices and documentation in vehicle logs.
