The Director of the Alabama State Law Enforcement Agency may promulgate any rules as are necessary to implement and administer this system of active electronic monitoring including establishing policies and procedures to notify the person's probation and parole officer or other court-appointed supervising authority when a violation of his or her electronic monitoring restrictions has occurred.

(b) The Board of Pardons and Paroles or a court may require, as a condition of release on parole, probation, community corrections, court referral officer supervision, pretrial release, or any other community-based punishment option, that any person charged or convicted of a sex offense be subject to electronic monitoring as provided in subsection (a).

(c) Any person designated a sexually violent predator pursuant to Section 15-20A-19, upon release from incarceration, shall be subject to electronic monitoring supervised by the Board of Pardons and Paroles, as provided in subsection (a), for a period of no less than 10 years from the date of the sexually violent predator's release. This requirement shall be imposed by the sentencing court as a part of the sentence of the sexually violent predator in accordance with subsection (c) of Section 13A-5-6.

(d) Any person convicted of a Class A felony sex offense involving a child as defined in Section 15-20A-4, upon release from incarceration, shall be subject to electronic monitoring supervised by the Board of Pardons and Paroles, as provided in subsection (a), for a period of no less than 10 years from the date of the sex offender's release.

(e) Anyone subject to electronic monitoring pursuant to this section, unless he or she is indigent, shall be required to reimburse the supervising entity a reasonable fee to defray supervision costs. The Board of Pardons and Paroles, the sentencing court, or other supervising entity shall determine the amount to be paid based on the financial means and ability to pay of the person, but such amount shall not exceed fifteen dollars ($15) per day.

(f) The supervising entity shall pay the Alabama State Law Enforcement Agency a fee, to be determined by the center, but not exceeding ten dollars ($10) per day, to defray monitoring equipment and telecommunications costs.
