The Department of Corrections says it will not be sending any staff into an "unsafe situation" and it is prepared to wait to resolve the impasse.
Seventeen inmates remain involved who have access to the "top jail"” part of the prison, the oldest part of the site built in 1911 and now rendered useless.
Inmates will never use its 250 beds again because of the damage. However, the unit was due to be replaced in 2022.
Officials said 212 inmates have been evacuated from the site.
