§ 33.30.061. Commissioner to designate facility.

 (a) The commissioner shall designate the correctional facility to which a prisoner is to be committed to serve a term of imprisonment or period of temporary commitment. The commissioner may designate a facility without regard to whether it is maintained by the state, is located within the judicial district in which the prisoner was convicted, or is located in the state.

 (b) The commissioner may designate an out-of-state facility under this section only if the commissioner determines that rehabilitation or treatment of the prisoner will not be substantially impaired.

 (c) The commissioner may, under AS 33.30.065 , designate a prisoner to serve the prisoner's term of imprisonment or period of temporary commitment, or a part of the term or period, by electronic monitoring. A prisoner serving a term of imprisonment, or a period of temporary commitment, for a crime involving domestic violence is not eligible for electronic monitoring.

 (d) A prisoner serving a term of imprisonment at a private residence as required by statute when electronic monitoring is not available does not have a liberty interest in that status. The commissioner may return the prisoner to a correctional facility if the commissioner finds that the prisoner has violated the terms and conditions of the imprisonment at the private residence.
