The intensive confinement center program is a specialized program combining features of a military boot camp with the traditional correctional values of the Bureau of Prisons, followed by extended participation in community-based programs. The goal of this program is to promote personal development, self-control, and discipline. (a) Eligibility for consideration of placement in the intensive confinement center program requires that the inmate is: (1)(i) Serving a sentence of more than 12, but not more than 30 months (see 18 U.S.C. 4046), or (ii) Serving a sentence of more than 30, but not more than 60 months, and is within 24 months of a projected release date. (2) Serving his or her first period of incarceration or has a minor history of prior incarcerations; (3) Is not serving a term of imprisonment for a crime of violence or a felony offense: (i) That has as an element, the actual, attempted, or threatened use of physical force against the person or property of another, or (ii) That involved the carrying, possession, or use of a firearm or other dangerous weapon or explosives (including any explosive material or explosive device), or (iii) That by its nature or conduct, presents a serious potential risk of physical force against the person or property of another, or (iv) That by its nature or conduct involves sexual abuse offenses committed upon children. (4) Appropriate for housing in minimum security; (5) Physically and mentally capable of participating in the program; (6) A volunteer. (b) Placement in the intensive confinement center program is to be made by Bureau staff in accordance with sound correctional judgment and the availability of Bureau resources. [61 FR 18658, Apr. 26, 1996, as amended at 62 FR 53691, Oct. 15, 1997] (a) An eligible inmate who volunteers for participation in an institution-based intensive confinement center program must agree to forego opportunities which may be otherwise available to inmates in Bureau institutions. Opportunities that may be affected include, but are not limited to, visitation, telephone use, legal research time, religious practices, commissary, smoking, and grooming preferences. (b) The institution-based component of the intensive confinement center program ordinarily is six months in duration. (c) Disciplinary procedures to be followed in the institution-based intensive confinement center program are set forth in subpart B of part 541 of this chapter. (d)(1) An inmate who successfully completes the institution-based component of the program ordinarily is eligible to serve the remainder of the sentence in a community-based program. (2) An inmate eligible for participation in the program under §524.31(a)(1)(i) who successfully completes the institution-based component, who maintains successful participation in a community-based program, and has a period of supervised release to follow is eligible for up to a six month reduction in sentence. (3) An inmate who completes or has completed the institution-based component of an intensive confinement center pilot program, who maintains successful participation in a community-based program, and has a period of supervised release to follow is eligible for up to a six month reduction in sentence if staff confirm that the inmate has met the requirements of §524.31(a)(1)(i), (2), (3) and (4). An inmate who fails to complete the institution-based component or who subsequently fails participation in a community-based program may forfeit his or her further involvement in the program.
