Okla. Stat. tit. 10A, § 10A-2-7-401: Juvenile Detention Improvement Revolving Fund

A. There is hereby created in the State Treasury a revolving

fund for the Office of Juvenile Affairs to be designated the

"Juvenile Detention Improvement Revolving Fund". The fund shall be

a continuing fund, not subject to fiscal year limitations, and shall

consist of all monies appropriated to the Juvenile Detention

Improvement Revolving Fund and monies which may otherwise be

available to the Office of Juvenile Affairs for use as provided for

in this section.

B. All monies appropriated to the fund shall be budgeted and

expended by the Office of Juvenile Affairs for the purpose of

providing funds to counties to renovate existing juvenile detention

facilities, to construct new juvenile detention facilities, to

operate juvenile detention facilities and otherwise provide for

secure juvenile detention services and alternatives to secure

detention as necessary and appropriate, in accordance with state-

approved juvenile detention standards and the State Plan for the

Establishment of Juvenile Detention Services provided for in Section

2-3-103 of this title. The participation of local resources shall

be a requirement for the receipt by counties of said funds and the

Department shall establish a system of rates for the reimbursement

of secure detention costs to counties. The methodology for the

establishment of said rates may include, but not be limited to,

consideration of detention costs, the size of the facility, services

provided and geographic location. Expenditures from said fund shall

be made upon warrants issued by the State Treasurer against claims

filed as prescribed by law with the Director of the Office of

Management and Enterprise Services for approval and payment.

1. The rate of reimbursement of approved operating cost shall

be eighty-five percent (85%) for the Office of Juvenile Affairs and

fifteen percent (15%) for the county.

2. The rate of reimbursement of approved operating cost shall

be one hundred percent (100%) for the Office of Juvenile Affairs for

a child in the custody of the Office of Juvenile Affairs after

adjudication and disposition who is held in a juvenile detention

facility when the child is pending a placement consistent with the

treatment needs of that child as identified by the Office of

Juvenile Affairs.

3. The Office of Juvenile Affairs shall approve only those

applications for funds to renovate an existing juvenile detention

facility or any other existing facility or to construct a new

juvenile detention facility which contain proposed plans that are in

compliance with state-approved juvenile detention standards.

4. The Office of Juvenile Affairs shall approve only those

applications or contracts for funds to operate juvenile detention

facilities or otherwise provide for secure juvenile detention

services and alternatives to secure detention which are in

compliance with or which are designed to achieve compliance with the

State Plan for the Establishment of Juvenile Detention Services

provided for in Section 2-3-103 of this title.

5. The Office of Juvenile Affairs shall, from appropriated

state monies or from available federal grants, provide for payment

pursuant to contract for transportation personnel and vehicle-

related costs and reimburse for eligible travel costs for counties

utilizing the juvenile detention facilities identified in the "State

Plan for the Establishment of Juvenile Detention Services" in

accordance with the provisions of the State Travel Reimbursement Act

and in accordance with Section 2-3-103 of this title.
