(a) Incarcerated persons shall not engage actively in a business or profession except as authorized by the institution head or as provided in Section 3104. For the purpose of this section, a business is defined as any revenue generating or profit-making activity. An incarcerated person who is engaged in a business or profession prior to commitment to the department shall assign authority for the operation of such business or profession to a person in the community.
(b) Incarcerated person mail may be rejected by an institution head or designee for reasons which include, but are not limited to, the mail relates to the direction of an incarcerated person's business or profession. This does not, however, prohibit mail necessary to enable an incarcerated person to protect property and funds that were legitimately the incarcerated person's at the time of commitment.
