California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation Trinity River Conservation Camp # 3

Trinity River Conservation Camp #3, located in Lewiston, CA, is a joint operation between the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR) and the Department of Forestry and Fire Protection CAL FIRE. The camp's primary mission is to provide incarcerated fire crews for fire suppression in the Trinity, Shasta, and Siskiyou County areas, as well as offering a workforce for floods, conservation projects, and community services for various government agencies.

Trinity River Conservation Camp #3, opened in May 1988, is responsible for the security, supervision, care, and discipline of the incarcerated camp participants, while CAL FIRE maintains the camp and supervises the work of the fire crews. The camp also offers rehabilitative and educational programs, including substance abuse programs, religious programs, and GED and correspondence college courses, as well as providing in-camp projects such as a saw mill, mill and cabinet shop, sewing and upholstery workshop, and welding area.
