Description:

The Pondville Correctional Center is a minimum security/pre-release Massachusetts state prison. It is located 36 miles southwest of Boston, Massachusetts in the town of Norfolk, Massachusetts. Because this is a minimum security facility, there are no walls or fences to keep prisoners in. Security is maintained by inmate counts and strict accountability procedures. Many inmates housed at this facility work in landscaping at other facilities such as the Massachusetts Correctional Institution - Cedar Junction and the Bay State Correctional Center. Each minimum security inmate is required to hold a job paying between $1 and $4 a day. Many inmates work in various communities in Massachusetts and some even assist the Department of Recreation and Conservation with a variety of tasks and projects. In addition, all inmates at this facility are subject to random drug testing and treatment sanctions.
