In such cases, the sheriff must obtain prior approval by contacting the Department of Correction's Population Management Administrator or designee.

(e) Upon receipt of the judgment and the time served certification, the Offender Information and Sentence Computation Unit (OISC) staff will establish a case file and compute the inmate's sentence. After the case file is established and the inmate's sentence is computed, OISC staff will send a copy of the face sheet, judgment, and time served certification to the Board of Parole and Post-Prison Supervision.

(f) In the event the sheriff does not deliver a time served certification with the inmate, the department will accept a time served certification by fax, mail, or teletype at OISC.

(g) If a time served certification is received after admission of the inmate, the OISC staff designated to perform sentence calculation shall amend the sentence computation pursuant to ORS 137.370 and send a copy of the amended face sheet, along with the new time served certification to the Board of Parole and Post-Prison Supervision.

(h) Parole violators will be accepted at the designated Department of Corrections intake facility with a revocation order issued by the Board of Parole and Post-Prison Supervision chairperson, or for a Board of Parole and Post-Prison Supervision warrant from out-of-state.

(i) A post-prison supervision violator is to be returned to the appropriate Department of Corrections intake facility by Community Corrections Branch staff or the county sheriff upon receipt of authorization from the Board of Parole and Post-Prison Supervision.

(b) Upon receipt of the judgment and the time served certification, OISC staff will establish a case file and compute the inmate's sentence(s).
