53-30-313 . Powers and duties of community corrections boards.
(1)A community corrections board may establish and enforce standards for:
(a)the operation of community corrections facilities and programs operated by the unit of local government or a tribal government served by the community corrections board; and
(b)the conduct of offenders placed in local community corrections facilities and programs.
(2)The community corrections board, together with the judicial district, shall establish procedures for screening offenders who are to be placed in the community corrections facility or program. The screening must take into account the aptitude, attitude, and social and occupational skills of the offender and the risk of harm the offender may present to the offender and others.
(3)A community corrections board may accept, reject, or reject after acceptance the placement of any offender in the community corrections facility or program. If an offender is rejected by the community corrections board after initial acceptance, the sheriff of the county in which the facility or program is located must take custody of the offender. The community corrections board shall notify in writing the sentencing judge who, after considering the board's reasons for rejection, shall appropriately modify the sentencing order.
