    APPENDIX ONE

    PROPERTY LIST

    This list incorporates all property authorized to be possessed by inmates in all Department institutions and facilities except community correctional centers. Except for items specified below as “exemptions”, property received must be in compliance with this list. Inmates in possession of property previously approved by the Department of Corrections which meets the description of property on the list shall be allowed to retain the property. Inmates transferring to Department facilities from private correctional facilities shall be allowed to retain only those items that are in compliance with the list of authorized property. As items sold in canteens at private facilities may differ from those sold in Department canteens, items purchased in canteens at private facilities will not always be admissible in Department facilities.

    Definitions.

    The “quantity” establishes a maximum possession limit. This does not mean that all state issue items will be issued to each inmate, or that the maximum number of items will be issued. Items found in the possession of an inmate that are in excess of the established “quantity” shall be treated as contraband in accordance with Rule 33-602.203, F.A.C. Where there is a “value” indicated, the authorized item shall not exceed that value. The terms “canteen” and “state issue” refer to the sources from which property can be obtained after January 1, 1996. All items with the “canteen” designation shall be available in all institutional canteens or through canteen order. All canteen items are transferable between institutions. “State issue” means that the institution has the authority to issue this item to inmates based upon the character of the institution, the location of the institution, the housing or work assignment of the inmate, or other factors related to institution or inmate needs. Institutions housing death row inmates shall make adjustments to this property list when possession of listed items by death row inmates would create a threat to the security of the institution.

    Exemptions.

    Inmates already in possession of the following previously approved items shall be allowed to retain the items until they are no longer serviceable, but shall not be allowed to replace them with like items.

    – Clothing items of a different color than specified on the property list.

    – Locks other than V68 series

    – Plastic bowls, tumblers, cups and lids

    – Pantyhose

    – Nail clippers larger than 2-1/2''
