Population: 1,091
The weekly population report

Last Updated: January 17, 2008
As of the above
posted update, the total number of
Federal Inmates incarcerated in all Federal Prisons across the
entire United States totals -
199,831
(obviously
population numbers have risen since 2008) |
|
Technically,
T.I.'s actual prison facility is rated as 'Medium Security',
featuring fully armed guarded observation prison towers
{above}
Though security is tighter, and rules & regulations more
stringently enforced, than typical 'minimal security' Federal Prison
Camps, like the Lompoc, California Federal facility, Terminal Island
has established School & Work Release programs, allowing inmates
limited access to community resources, upon qualification, and
acceptance to these liberal outreach rehabilitation programs. As a
result of this, Terminal Island FCI's security rating has been
converted to the unique level of 'low' security. |
FCI Terminal Island is located at the entrance to the Los Angeles
Harbor, between San Pedro and Long Beach, off the Harbor Freeway (110
South), at the Terminal Island exit.
Access
to Terminal Island, itself {photo left},
from Long Beach, requires traversing the length of the
Vincent Thomas Bridge
(photo-right}.
At the end of
the bridge, one enters the LA Harbor area, lined with huge
shipping containers.
At the very end of the road stands
the entrance to the U.S. Federal Correctional Institution
