FILE - This June 2013 file photo shows one of the new cell blocks of the North Dakota State Penitentiary in Bismarck, N.D. Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation officials hope to start using the new facilities by July, 2013.

A state commission made up of lawmakers, judges, lawyers and law enforcement officials is looking for ways to free up limited lockup space without compromising public safety.
