'''USP Tucson Satellite Prison Camp''' is a minimum-security United States federal prison camp for male inmates located in Tucson, Arizona. It is a satellite facility of [[USP Tucson (high-security)|United States Penitentiary Tucson]] and is operated by the [[Index_of_Federal_Prison_Facilities|Federal Bureau of Prisons]], a division of the United States Department of Justice. The camp is part of the Tucson Federal Correctional Complex.

== Overview ==

The USP Tucson Satellite Prison Camp is a minimum-security facility housing approximately 112 male inmates as of October 2025. As a satellite camp, it provides labor support for day-to-day operations of the main federal prison complex.

The minimum-security camp provides lower-risk housing for select inmates, such as nonviolent offenders approaching release eligibility. Features include dormitory-style housing units, perimeter fencing without razor wire, and reduced staff-to-inmate ratios compared to the main USP facility.

To qualify for the satellite camp, inmates must not have committed a violent crime and typically must be approaching their release date.
