§  95. Use of local government institutions for confinement of persons   under  custody  with  or  awaiting  transfer  to  the   department.   1.   Notwithstanding  any  other provision of law, the commissioner is hereby   authorized to contract with any county or the city of New York  for  the   use of a local correctional facility to provide for the care and custody   of  any person convicted of an offense and sentenced to a determinate or   to an indeterminate sentence of imprisonment who is awaiting transfer to   or has been transferred to the custody of the department as required  by   section  430.20  of  the criminal procedure law; provided, however, that   any such contract under this section shall not include  persons  charged   with  or  found  to  be  in  violation  of parole or conditional release   pursuant to subdivision three of section two hundred fifty-nine-i of the   executive law.2. Any such incarcerated individual shall  be  deemed  to  be  in  the   custody  of and subject to the jurisdiction of the department but shall,   during the period of his or her local confinement, be under the care  of   the head of the local correctional facility in which he or she resides.3.  If  at  any time the head of the local correctional facility is of   the opinion that the continued care of such incarcerated  individual  in   the  local  correctional  facility  is  inconsistent with the welfare or   safety of the incarcerated individual, the community,  the  facility  or   other   incarcerated  individuals,  he  or  she  may  demand  that  such   incarcerated individual be transferred forthwith to the custody  of  the   department.    Thereafter,  the department shall be obligated to receive   into its custody such incarcerated individual in the  manner  prescribed   for  the acceptance of newly sentenced incarcerated individuals required   by section 430.20 of the criminal  procedure  law  unless  the  contract   specifies   an  alternative  method  of  transfer.  Notwithstanding  the   foregoing, in any case where the incarcerated individual in the care  of   the  local  correctional facility pursuant to a contract as provided for   in this section is convicted of a class A-1 felony offense or a class  B   violent  felony offense or a class C violent felony offense, the head of   the local  correctional  facility  may  demand  that  such  incarcerated   individual  be  transferred  forthwith to the custody of the department.   Thereafter, the department  shall  be  obligated  to  receive  into  its   custody such incarcerated individual within forty-eight hours of receipt   of such demand from the head of the local correctional facility.4.  The commissioner is hereby authorized to reimburse the contracting   county or the city of New York for a sum equivalent to  the  actual  per   day  per capita cost, as certified by the appropriate local official, or   one hundred dollars per day per capita, whichever is less.5. No incarcerated individual shall be housed in a local  correctional   facility  or  series  of  local  correctional  facilities  pursuant to a   contract under subdivision one of this section for  a  period  exceeding   six months.
