While incarcerated, reading is often the best use of time. Please note that books and magazines, puzzles, and word searches ordered for inmates must come directly from the publisher. This policy ensures that the items are new, untampered, and comply with the facility's regulations. Prisons and jails enforce this rule to prevent the introduction of contraband or prohibited materials. By restricting orders to publishers, the facility can better maintain security and control over the content entering the institution. Any books or magazines not received directly from the publisher will be rejected and not delivered to the inmate. You may, however, send letters and selfies to inmates with this easy-to-use app, packages starting at only $8.00.

Established in 1980, the PCC is the Nevada Department of Corrections' (NDC) inaugural camp in Rural Nevada, pioneering wildland firefighting crews managed by the Nevada Division of Forestry for Lincoln County and the state. PCC's emergency crews have responded to various natural disasters, including floods in Carson City (1997) and Caliente (2003), and assisted in the Space Shuttle Columbia recovery (2003). Additionally, they were dispatched twice to California (Chico and Grass Valley) in 2008 and routinely aid in statewide fire emergencies.

PCC employs a diverse staff consisting of one Correctional Lieutenant, one Correctional Sergeant, one Senior Correctional Officer, 11 Correctional Officers, two Correctional Caseworkers, one Retail Storekeeper, and 11 Nevada Division of Forestry Staff Members. The camp accommodates 196 male inmates in dormitory living conditions, with capacity potentially rising to 238 during departmental exigencies.

In terms of programs, PCC collaborates with the Nevada Division of Forestry to train and deploy community project and wildland firefighting crews year-round. Inmates have the opportunity to obtain their GED or High School Diploma while accessing programs such as Anger Management and New Beginnings for personal development and rehabilitation.
