BOP Program Statement 7320.01 § 12
PROCEDURES FOR DIRECT INMATE PLACEMENT ON HOME CONFINEMENT.
If there is a electronically monitored program available, an
inmate who does not require CCC transitional services may be
placed directly on home confinement from an institution.
a. Eligibility. Generally, an inmate may be considered
eligible for direct placement on home confinement if he or she:
# has no public safety factors,
# had excellent institutional adjustment,
# has a stable residence with a supportive family,
# has confirmed employment (if employable), and
# has little or no need for the services of a CCC.

b. Placement. If the inmate's plan is satisfactory, the home
confinement provider and the CCM shall establish the inmate's
placement date. The provider shall provide a written
notification of the acceptance and the reporting date to the CCM,
with a copy to the referring institution. The reporting date
should be a weekday, and the inmate shall be required to report
to the provider within 24 hours of reaching the release
jurisdiction. The CCM shall notify the referring institution via
SENTRY and provide instruction on when and where the inmate
should report.
Institution staff shall prepare a Transfer Order to document the
official transfer to home confinement. Institution staff shall
also prepare the Authorized Unescorted Commitment and Transfer
Card, BP-385, including the inmate's picture and fingerprints,
and forward it to the CCM at least two weeks prior to the
placement. The CCM shall forward it to the appropriate USPO.
If an inmate is eligible for direct placement on home
confinement, but an electronically monitored home confinement
program is not available, the CCM and the provider shall arrange
for an initial short placement (approximately two weeks) in a CCC
to allow the provider to become acquainted with the inmate,
orient him or her to the expectations of the program, and assure
that the job and living arrangements are appropriate. After
successfully completing that process, the inmate may be placed on
home confinement with the CCM's approval.
When problems arise during the orientation period which indicate
direct placement on home confinement is inappropriate or should
be delayed, the CCM shall delay such placement until the problems
have been resolved.
