Provides that a court shall impose electronic monitoring as a condition of community custody for an offender sentenced under RCW 9.94A.712, or an offender convicted of a violation of RCW 9A.44.130(10)(a), unless the court finds electronic monitoring impracticable or inappropriate given the individual circumstances of the offender.

Requires the department to carry out any electronic monitoring ordered under this act using the most appropriate technology given the individual circumstances of the offender. The department may require an offender to pay all or part of the costs for electronic monitoring imposed under this act dependent upon the offender's ability to pay.

Provides that the department, monitoring agency, local law enforcement, and any employee of the department, monitoring agency, or law enforcement acting within the scope of his or her employment are immune from civil liability resulting from acts or omissions relating to electronic monitoring of offenders under this act, unless the department or employee acted with gross negligence or in bad faith.
