CCA ran the facility from 1995 to 2017. It had an official capacity of 1049 inmates.

A sexual assault lawsuit filed against CCA for a "hazing" incident in October 2013 alleged, among other things, that the facility was deliberately understaffed to cut costs.[3]

The facility was closed in 2017 due to declining inmate populations in the state of Texas.[4]

In October 2024 the Texas Department of Criminal Justice reopened the facility.
