The duration of the probation period referred to in §§ 1026-1029 of this title shall be the same as the duration of the term fixed in the sentence. During the probation period the Corrections Administration shall exercise the degree of supervision it may consider necessary to accomplish the rehabilitation of the person and to protect the community. Any person placed on probation shall be submitted to a disciplinary regime of life and to a treatment plan, whose duration and conditions shall remain at the discretion of the Corrections Administration, according to the specific behavior problem presented by the person on probation.
The Corrections Administration, upon consulting with the Institute of Forensic Sciences, shall adopt the needed regulations and shall establish the testing procedures to detect controlled substances for all persons on probation. Their refusal to submit to the test program or to the rehabilitation treatment designed by the Corrections Administration shall be sufficient grounds for the trial court to revoke probations of §§ 1026-1029 of this title.
