(1) When the supervising officer or other person informs the Sanction Authority of reasonable grounds to believe that a person has violated the conditions of parole or post-prison supervision, or that supervision is no longer in the best interests of the offender or the community, and that the revocation of parole or post-prison supervision may be justified or, in the case of parole only, an extension of parole may be justified, the Sanction Authority may: (a) Suspend the running of the sentence and the parole or post-prison supervision term and order the offender arrested and detained pending a violation hearing; or (b) Issue a citation to appear before the Board, the Board’s designated representative or at a violation hearing without first suspending parole or the post-prison supervision term or ordering detention. (2) The Sanction Authority may issue a suspend and detain warrant or a citation to appear before the Board, the Board’s designated representative or at a violation hearing. (3) The Sanction Authority may authorize, in writing, that its designated representative may issue citations to appear before the Board, the Board’s designated representative or at a violation hearing. (4) Designated Representative for purposes of issuing a citation means a person appointed by the Board including a supervising officer and a hearings officer.
