Private prisoner transport companies must be sufficiently equipped to provide immediate notification to law enforcement in the event of a prisoner escape. Law enforcement officials must receive notification no later than 15 minutes after an escape is detected unless the company can demonstrate that extenuating circumstances necessitated a longer delay. In the event of the escape of a violent prisoner, a private prisoner transport company must:

1. (a) Ensure the safety and security of the remaining prisoners;
2. (b) Provide notification within 15 minutes to the appropriate State and local law enforcement officials;
3. (c) Provide notification as soon as practicable to the governmental entity or the privately run incarceration facility that contracted with the transport company; and
4. (d) Provide complete descriptions of the escapee and the circumstances surrounding the escape to State and local law enforcement officials if needed.
