Restitution may be taken from an inmate's account or from any other assets of the inmate. If the inmate has insufficient assets to pay the ordered restitution in full at the time of the hearing, his or her obligation to pay the restitution shall remain in full force and effect until the time it has been paid in full. Transfer to another institution, release from incarceration, or release from custody of the department shall not terminate the inmate's obligation to pay ordered restitution. When the amount of restitution is unknown at the time of the hearing, the hearing officer may impose an estimated maximum restitution amount. If the actual amount of restitution is less than the estimated amount, only the actual amount shall be assessed. Restitution may not exceed the estimated amount.(8) SECURE WORK CREWS. The hearing officer may give uncompensated secure work crew assignments under ch. DOC 304 as a minor disciplinary sanction to inmates.Wis. Admin. Code Department of Corrections § DOC 303.70
