(1) He or she is not classified by the secretary as eligible for or on minimum security status; or
(2) His or her minimum term of imprisonment has not been set; or
(3) He or she has a valid detainer pending and the agency holding the detainer has not provided written approval for him or her to be placed on a furlough-eligible status. Such written approval may include either specific approval for a particular resident or general approval for a class or group of residents.
