Section 291-086-0071 - Removal of Access Restriction

(1) An adult in custody may request that their restriction from access to information technology be removed after one year from the restriction date.

(a) To request removal of a restriction from access to information technology an adult in custody must send an AIC communication form requesting removal of the access restriction, together with any supporting documentation, to the designated committee at the facility where the adult in custody is currently housed. Documentation submitted as part of this review process will not be returned to the adult in custody. The request should support that the adult in custody has demonstrated significant positive behavior change and no longer poses a threat to the security of the facility, the department, or the community through access to information technology.

(b) The designated committee may gather information pertinent to the restriction review. The review will include a recommendation from Information Technology Services.

(c) The designated committee shall complete its review within 30 days after receiving the adult in custody's request for removal of the access restriction. If the review takes longer than 30 days, the reason for the delay will be documented with the resulting recommendation. The committee will forward their recommendation to the Department of Corrections Operations Technology Liaison.

(2) The Department of Corrections Operations Technology Liaison or designee shall review and track the recommendation provided by the designated committee. The Department of Corrections Operations Technology Liaison will forward the recommendation to the Institutions Administrators or their designees for decision. The decision will ordinarily be issued within 30 days of receipt. If the review takes longer than 30 days, the reason for the delay will be documented.

(3) The Institutions Administrators or their designees shall notify the adult in custody of the decision in writing. The decision shall be final and is not subject to further review for a period of one year from the date of the decision.

(4) Requests for removal of restrictions from access to information technology described in OAR 291-086-0049 must be submitted and processed through the ADA accessibility request process as governed by the department's rules on Accessibility for Adults in Custody with Disabilities (OAR 291-111).
