BOP Program Statement 7310.04 § 11
REFUSALS. When an eligible inmate refuses CCC placement,
staff shall investigate the inmate's reasons. Staff may honor an
inmate's refusal of CCC placement.
Suitable reasons to decline placement might include previous CCC
failure, potential conflict with other residents, and location or
remoteness from release residence. When the inmate does not
present a suitable reason, and the unit team believes that a
placement would serve a correctional need, the unit team shall
make every effort to encourage participation.
When an inmate refuses placement, a memorandum, signed by the
Associate Warden (Programs) and the inmate, shall be placed in
the Inmate Central File. The memorandum should document the
inmate's rationale for refusal and all unit team effort to
encourage participation.
