As of Register 242 (July 2022), the regulations attorney made conforming technical revisions under sec. 138, E.O. 121 and AS 44.62.125(b)(6), to 7 AAC 52.445 to the authority citation that follows 7 AAC 52.445 to substitute references to AS 44.30.020 and AS 47.06.010 for the former reference to AS 47.05.010. 7 AAC 52.450. Secure confinement. (a) When a juvenile’s behavior necessitates placement in secure confinement for the safety of the juvenile or others, or to ensure the security of the facility, the juvenile may be so confined for a period of up to 24 hours. Secure confinement for periods of more than 24 hours must be reviewed every 24 hours by the superintendent or the superintendent’s designee who was not involved in the incident necessitating that confinement. Secure confinement may be extended for additional periods if necessary for the safety of juveniles or others, or to ensure the safety of the facility. Secure confinement may not exceed five 24-hour periods. (b) A facility shall provide appropriate services and programs for high-risk juveniles who cannot control their assaultive behavior, who present a danger to themselves, or who are in constant danger of being victimized by other juveniles, thus requiring special management. The facility may, if the facility determines that it necessary, separate such juveniles from the general population to allow for individualized attention.
