(iv) When lost as a result of an 813 violation related to employment or programming while in work/training release;
(v) Once addressed/adopted by the board for PAR individuals, unless approved in advance by the board.
(3) The case manager will establish/review good conduct time restoration plans with eligible individuals during each classification review, regardless of custody level or housing assignment. The restoration plan may be established before the applicable time frame for restoration, and will include:
(a) All eligible violations;
(b) Not place the individual within one hundred twenty days of the ERD;
(c) Be targeted for completion at least ten months before the ERD;

(4) The appointing authority/designee or appropriate deputy director will consider all relevant information when determining whether to approve/deny the restoration plan.
(5) Restoration plans will be calculated based on the original sanction time and restored as follows:
(a) Category A violations - Maximum of fifty percent.
(b) Category B violations - Minimum of fifty percent up to one hundred percent.
(c) Category C violations - Minimum of seventy-five percent up to one hundred percent.
(6) Time lost will be restored if the individual remains serious violation free, follows the requirements as outlined in the plan, and it has been at least six months since the previous classification review.
(7) The restoration decision is final and cannot be appealed. Restoration plans will remain in effect when an individual transfers between facilities.
