New Jersey § 2b:6-6

§ 2b:6-6.

a. The Statewide County Corrections Information System (CCIS) funded in accordance

with section 2 of P.L.2004, c. 108 (C.2B: 6-7), shall serve as the Statewide automated information system for the entry,

retrieval and exchange of data related to the management of county jail populations. The counties shall be afforded access to and use the Statewide CCIS and shall not

be required to bear any portion of the cost of administration, operation, development

or maintenance of the Statewide system. Nothing in this subsection shall prevent a county, at its own expense, from maintaining

or obtaining and using an autonomous automated information system for the management

of its jail population and related inventories, provided that any such autonomous

system is interconnected with the Statewide CCIS in accordance with the requirements

of subsection b. of this section. b. A county that elects to maintain or use an autonomous automated information system

for the management of its jail population and related inventories shall take all necessary

and appropriate steps to ensure that such system is compatible with all Statewide

CCIS technical interconnection requirements, standardized data definitions and functionality

necessary to perform the following tasks: fully automated county jail operations;

provide the on-line capacity to update the standardized statewide database; and enable

Statewide on-line inquiry and exchange of automated data. A county that elects to maintain and operate an autonomous automated information

system shall be responsible for all costs of the interconnection between its system

and the Statewide CCIS. c. Nothing in this section shall preclude, in an emergency situation, the immediate

termination, without notice, of any interconnection with an autonomous automated information

system if the continued operation of such system at any time threatens or has compromised

the security or data integrity of the Statewide CCIS, any of its components or any

of the public and quasi-public agencies that exchange automated information with the

Statewide CCIS, pursuant to subsection b. of this section. Any county whose interconnection is so terminated shall immediately be provided

with written reasons for the termination, which shall continue until the threats to

security and data integrity have been removed.
