The Wells Conservation Camp (WCC), located approximately 14 miles east of Wells, was opened in October 1985 and houses an all-male minimum security population in an open facility. Inmates can obtain credit by attending general education diploma or high school classes. Self-help programs are also available. The inmate crews support the Nevada Division of Forestry program by working on conservation projects and fire suppression activities with 12-man crews. Statutory Authority: NRS 209.
