(g) Pre-trial detainees, immigration detainees, and federal detainees shall not have re-entry plans developed due to their un-sentenced status but shall be assigned an initial classification score at the time of their initial classification evaluation which shall govern their custody level, housing assignment, and work assignment throughout their stay unless their sentencing status changes.
(h) Residents who transferred from other jurisdictions to serve their sentence shall have a re-entry plan developed following the same procedures as sentenced New Hampshire residents but all decisions involved in this plan that require approval by the sending jurisdiction shall be subject to such approval before any change in status is made.
(i) The commissioner shall remove any resident from any approved plan, at any level of custody, at any time if in his or her opinion the placement might jeopardize the safety, security, or the orderly operation of the institution staff, other residents, or the public.
(j) The re-entry plan for the resident shall be a recommended course of action and shall not be binding on the department to grant movement forward in custody levels, recommend parole, or special alternative programs.
(k) The classification staff member shall date and sign the "Initial Classification Evaluation and Re-entry Planning" form.
(l) The resident shall date and sign the "Initial Classification Evaluation and Re-entry Planning" form.
