Proclamation
WHEREAS: the effects of sexual assault go far beyond the physical and victims often develop a
number of psychological conditions, such as post traumatic stress disorder and
depression affecting families, friends and Texas communities, spurring fear, anger and a
sense of vulnerability; and,
WHEREAS: few survivors of sexual violence seek help immediately after victimization due to
shame or the fear of not being believed. To end sexual assault, we must alleviate these
fears and begin by believing; and,
WHEREAS: as members of a caring society, members of communities across the state of Texas must
unite to remove the stigma of rape and the Brazos Valley community must continue the
dialogue started by the Sexual Assault Resource Center in their places of work, schools
and homes; and,
WHEREAS: each year, the month of April provides an opportunity for the Sexual Assault Resource
Center and rape crisis centers across the state to renew their commitments to serve their
communities. Educational efforts also intensify, which ensures that Texans are aware of
the sexual assault services available in their area; and,
NOW, THEREFORE, we as the Commissioners Court of Brazos County, do hereby designate

RE: Licensed Professional Counselor Testimony - Case 171-J-19 & 356-J-18
DATE: April 5, 2022
The respondent, in this case, was charged with Public Lewdness and Indecency with a
Child. While the respondent was on conditions of release, the court allowed him to go to
a wilderness camp, Star Guides, in Utah. While attending Star Guides, Respondent
completed a sex offender treatment program with a licensed social worker, not a licensed
sex offender treatment provider. The respondent pled to both offenses, and the case was
set for a disposition hearing. Due to the nature of the offenses, we, the State, were
requesting the respondent be placed on probation so he could complete sex offender
aftercare.
Mr. Gutierrez is the licensed sex offender treatment provider under contract with the
juvenile probation department. The juvenile probation department and the defense both "
requested that the court discharge the respondent from any conditions of release and close
his case without being placed on probation. We asked that Mr. Gutierrez review the
treatment records from Star Guides and offense reports to understand whether or not, in
his professional opinion, the child needed continued counseling or therapy. After
reviewing the documents, Mr. Gutierrez expressed concerns about the nature of the
offenses and the apparentl escalation in behavior and recommended sex offender
aftercare. Based on that recommendation, we requested that he testify in the disposition
hearing to assist the court in making a ruling.

Truck Fuel Surcharge
As we start the 2022 year, our industry continues to work through many different challenges. One of the
major challenges we are facing is the availability and rising costs of trucking. Accordingly, we are
implementing the below trucking fuel surcharges that will go into effect March 1, 2022 for Texas.
The fuel surcharge will go into effect when the price of on -road diesel surpasses the $3.24 mark on the
EIA Gulf Coast PADD 3 index. The freight rate will be increased by 1% for every $.05 move in the price of
fuel, starting at $3.25 per gallon. The surcharge will be updated on the last Tuesday of every month.
Note: The fuel surcharge will be a 100% pass through to the hauler
To check the current price please go to http://www.eia.gov/petroleum/Aasdiesel and check the Gulf Coast
region table.

1, Question: Refusal and/or Inability to Pansport.- Page 15, V. The vendor shall have the right to refuse to
transport any individual whose condition or behavior, in the opinion of the driver, would be detrimental or
dangerous to the safety of the vehicle or its passengers. In the event the driver refuses to transport any such
individual, HCSO must be notified immediately, prior to leaving the pick-up location, and there shall be no
charge to HCSO. "
Refusal and/or Inability to Transport: Page 15, "2. gupon arrival at the holding agency, the vendor learns
that the prisoner has a contagious disease that was unknown to the vendor and HCSO, the vendor shall
Immediately contact HCSO for further instructions. Ifthe prisoner is transported, transport shall be made
in such a manner as to ensure the well-being of all other occupants. If the prisoner cannot be transported,
HCSO will not be subject to apenalty charge. The vendor agrees not to place holds on 1100 prisoners
held in other jurisdictions, Should the vendor or its agents place a hold on a prisoner, in violation of this
provision, vendor agrees to reimburse HCSO for the full cost of transport In each such occurrence. "
Refusal and/or Inability to D,ansport: Page 15, "3, In the event the prisoner is unavailable, due to the fault
O 1ICSO, HCSO will be responsible for the costs incurred which are directly attributed to the trip to the
facility, but no more than 25916 of the original trip cost. In the event the vendor fails to contact the holding
facility twelve (12) hours prior to pick up, I1•C80 must be relieved of any and all costs associated with such
pickup if upon arrival the prisoner is unavailable. In any case, HCSO will not be subject to a penalty
charge. "
Addressing the three requirements above, when a trip is cancelled after company agents are already in route
(or arrived) to the pickup location, transport companies incur significant costs to pay their staff, gas,
depreciation, house their inmates in transport, and it also impacts company drivers' DOT "driver service
hours". This same applies when a company arrives at a facility and they cannot pick-up an offender due to
undisclosed medical conditions, no medications being provided, or some other unsafe condition that is no
fault of the vendor. It would be unreasonable to require prisoner transport companies to incur these costs
of cancellation and/or no -pickup when they have spent significant time and resources, and capital into the
transport. We request that HCSO allows for industry standards of a 50% cancellation fee (after a certain
date), or a no -pickup fee in the vase that a company shows up and is not able to safety transport the offender,
Answer: See Addendum No. 3., for revisions to page 15, section H, 1.. Before the vendor starts
travelling to the location for the pickup, and after going through the quote process, and accepting the
job at the quoted price, it is the responsibility of the vendor to contact the holding agency to ensure
the prisoner will be ready for pickup and that all medical and/or medications are known up front
prior to pick up. Before quoting a price, all information (medical, medications, eta) should be made
known and is the vendor's sole obligation to ensure all current information on the prisoner is
available. It is no fault of the Harris County Sherrif's Office (HCSO) if all information is not
acquired by vendor or if the prisoner's behavior is detrimental or dangerous. HCSO will not be
responsible for any cost leading up to the prisoner being picked up if the pickup is at no fault of
HCSO. HCSO will only be responsible for a failed pickup if the failed pickup was directly the fault
of FfCSO.
If the prisoner becomes contagious by disease and is of no fault of the vendor or HCSO the vendor
shall immediately contact HCSO for further Instructions. If the prisoner is transported, transport
shall be made in such a manner as to ensure the well-being of, all other occupants, If the prisoner
cannot be transported, HCSO will not be subject to a penalty charge. The vendor agrees not to place
holds -on HCSO prisoners held in other jurisdictions. Should the vendor or its agents Place a hold on
a prisoner, in violation of this provision, vendor agrees to reimburse HCSO for the fall cost of
transport in each such occurrence.
The 25% of the Original Trip Cost (quoted price) should remain the same, If the vendor is unable
to or refuses to transport after a price is accepted it is the vendor's responsibility to ensure all
U.S, Correctlons - Page 100 of 104
Vol. C�J�CO Pg. o�
information is known or disclosed to the vendor. The HCSO is not responsible for any information
not disclosed to the vendor prior to pickup.
2. Question: Refusal and/or Inability to Transport, Page 15, "A should vendor fail to pick up prisoners when
booked in advance, HCSO will charge vendor afee ofS100.00per fnfraotion.'
This is a very broad requirement that we are requesting removed or seek additional clarification on. Failed
pickups can be.caused by numerous conditions outside of a Vendors control inch as vehicle breakdowns,
weather conditions, or delays at facilities, We do not believe it is fair for the County to fine Vendors if a
pickup is unsuccessful due to variables out of the Vendors control. Could the .County please provide
additional clarification on this requirement or advise if removal is possible?
Answer: The HCSO and all law enforcement agencies are mandated by state law and the fifty (50)
State Compact Agreement that all extraditions are completed in the time frame specified for Out of
County (OOC) and Out of State (OOS) charges. If transportation is arranged by vendor, but the
vendor fails to arrive in the allotted time, the HCSO will be subject to,penalty by the State, It is only
fair that if the HCSO is entrusting the vendor to arrive on or before the time frame expires, there be
some fine or penalty adjudicated to the vendor to ensure the time firame is met.
3. Question: Refusal and/or Inability to Transport: Page 15, "S. Vendor shall deliverprisolzer s held in another
jurisdiction to HCSO facilities within six (6) dcrysfrom the date ofpickup unless HCSO designates a shorter
Period Failure to comply with this requirement without Ilia consent of a 01ininal Warrants supervisor of
HC90 will reduce the cost of the trip by HCSO to 50% of the original price,
We request that the 6-day delivery window be removed. Based on the pickup location of some offenders it
is not possible to guarantee their delivery in 6-days or less if Vendors are to abide by mandatory
DOT/FMCSA requirements for Maximum Driving time for Passenger Carrying vehicles. This is a federal
law which the bid terms require compliance of, Additionally, the specifications require frequent restroom
stops and overnight housing averaging 8-hours ofrest in every 24-hour period which adds additional time,
We understand that the County would like offenders delivered as quickly as possible once picked up but
forcing a six -day window could place offenders, vendors staff, and the general public at risk if vendors are
not providing adequate rest for transport personnel. It is in vendor's best interest to have offenders in
custody for the shortest amount of time possible to mitigate liability but violation of federal law or
endangerment of all involved may/will occur by rushing the transport process,
Additionally, the offenders' comfort and safety are something we have made great strides to improve. We
attempt to provide them with an extended mid -transport break averaging 24-48 hours when traveling cross
country. This allows for the offender to,rest, exercise, and receive care before continuing their transport.
When combining the mid -transport break of 48 hours or more with the 8-hour average break per day,
honoring the 6-day request would require us lower our standard of care for offenders, The mid -transport
break comes at no additional charge to our clients and is an attempt -to provide our passengers a better
experience than any other company in the industry. This helps protect the offender, you and our company.
Answer: No, all factors that would prevent the vendor from delivering to HCSO within six (6) days
should be considered prior to accepting the transport. All transports have a deadline date in which
the prisoner must be picked up by, but does not have a drop off date. It should be the responsibility
of the vendor to ensure the prisoner can be dropped off within the six (6) day allotment.
4. Question: Pricing: We have additional concerns related to the pricing portion of this bid which fails to
include minimum transport charges nor surcharges for special request transports, Minimum Charge and
Surcharges for special transport requests are industry standard for all transportation companies,
The "Minimum Transport Feel protects prisoner transport companies from getting a transport request for
10 miles at $x.xx/mi le, potentially resulting in a $10-15 bill to move an offender. rt is very costly to transport
U.S. Correottons - Page 101 of 104
Vol. S Jam_ Pg.4c oa
inmates and no company would be able to remain in business at those rates. We request that there is
language added to the contract to state that all moves will. be over 300 miles, or alternatively allow for
minimum price for a transport on your pricing schedule.
Surcharges are industry standard and allow prisoner transport companies to charge for additional work and
money incurred when a special condition applies. These are situations like release dates, court dates, short -
notice or any transport that requires companies to pick up or drop off on specific dates and times or situation
where inmate housing must occur because our operational routes have been impacted by these parameters.
County jails typically charge between $45-150/inmate par night to house overnight. In almost all
circumstances, time specific pick-ups and drop offs and/or short notice transport requests incur significant
housing costs for not just your offenders, but any other offenders on the same vehicle.. We request that
HCSO considers adding Special Conditions Surcharge and allow for this fee to apply to these transports.
If surcharges and minimums cannot be added to the bid, companies will bid. a higher rate per mile in order
to offset the losses they will take on special requests and short moves. This will result in the County paying
a much higher rate per mile than needed on regular (the majority) of their moves. PIease consider this
amendment to the pricing page as it is a win/win for both vendor and agency.
Answer: See Addendum No, 5.
