Offenders arrested for misdemeanors and felonies in this county are brought to the NORCOR Jail for booking and processing, and if their crime requires it, are incarcerated until they either get bail or are released from custody on their own recognizance.
Those who are found guilty and sentenced to a term of less than one year, will do their time in NORCOR. Those sentenced to longer terms will be sent to either the Oregon State Prison System or the Federal Bureau of Prisons.
It's always a good idea to find out and save the inmate's jail ID number or booking number as you may need this for sending mail or other communication needs. If you can't locate it online, you can call NORCOR at 541-298-1576 to get it.
