§ 4106. Written guidelines and regulations.
The department shall develop written guidelines for participant selection criteria and the establishment of drug offender treatment program selection committees within each diagnostic and classification center of the department and shall address suspensions and expulsions from the drug offender treatment program. The guidelines shall not be subject to the act of June 25, 1982 (P.L.633, No.181), known as the Regulatory Review Act, and shall be effective for a period of two years upon publication in the Pennsylvania Bulletin.
The guidelines shall be replaced by regulations promulgated by the department consistent with the Regulatory Review Act within the two-year period during which the guidelines are effective. The regulations shall include a requirement that community-based therapeutic communities utilized in the drug offender treatment program be accredited as a therapeutic community for treatment of drug and alcohol abuse and addiction by the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities or other nationally recognized accreditation organization for community-based therapeutic communities for drug and alcohol addiction treatment.
