Any charitable organization or governmental entity within a judicial district is eligible to apply with the work project coordinator of the district for probationer labor to perform a specific work project for that organization or entity.
The application forms shall be prepared by the coordinator of each district but shall contain the following information:
The charitable organization or governmental entity for whom the work will be performed;
The specific work project for which probationer labor is requested;
The specific job skills, if any, that will be required to complete the project;
The number of probationers requested for the project;
The anticipated period of time the work project will take to complete; and
The person in the organization or entity that will be responsible for the supervision and care of any probationer working on the project.
When the work project application forms have been prepared, any charitable organization exempt from taxation pursuant to § 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954 (26 U.S.C. § 501(c)(3)), or any agency, branch, department or other entity of municipal, county, state or federal government may submit an application for probationer labor to the work project coordinator of the judicial district in which the work project is to be performed.
The work project coordinator shall review each application so submitted and first determine whether the organization or entity is eligible for probationer labor under subsection (c). If the coordinator determines it is not, the application shall be rejected. If the coordinator determines that the application is from an eligible organization or entity, the coordinator may approve or reject it. If it is rejected, the coordinator shall state the reasons for the rejection in writing and send a copy to the applicant. The coordinator may also approve an application subject to certain modifications the coordinator deems necessary. If of the opinion that a work project should be modified as to certain particulars, the coordinator shall send a copy of the proposed modifications to the applicant. If the applicant agrees to the modifications, the coordinator may approve the application as modified. If the coordinator and applicant cannot agree as to some or all of the modifications, the coordinator may approve the application as originally filed, may approve the application subject to the agreed upon modifications or may reject the application.
The decision of a work project coordinator as to whether an organization or entity is eligible for a work project and as to whether the application should be approved or rejected shall be final and shall not be subject to review by appeal except in cases of abuse of discretion. The director of probation and parole shall have authority over the appeals.
