(a) a device is available;
(b) the participant is capable of paying the fees and costs associated with continuous remote transdermal alcohol monitoring;
(c) the participant is capable of wearing the device; and
(d) the participant does not qualify for twice-daily breath tests because of one or more of the following:
(i) the participant lives in a rural area and submitting to twice-daily breath tests would be unduly burdensome;
(ii) the participant's employment requires job performance at a location remote from the testing location and submitting to twice-daily breath tests would be unduly burdensome; or
(iii) the participant repeatedly has violated the 24/7 sobriety program while submitting to twice-daily breath tests and poses a substantial risk of future violation.
(4) A participating agency shall record all testing results in the data management system.
