"NEW SECTION.  Sec. 306   A new section is added to chapter 72.09 RCW to read as follows:
     (1) Beginning January 1, 2008, the department shall submit an annual report to the governor and the legislature containing:
     (a) The number, custody levels, and the amount of earned release of offenders supervised by the department during the previous calendar year;
     (b) The number, custody levels, and the amount of earned release of offenders who violated one or more conditions of their community custody during the previous calendar year, other than new offenses, the type of violation, and the sanction or sanctions imposed for each violation;
     (c) The number, custody levels, and the amount of earned release of offenders who violated one or more conditions of their community custody by committing new offenses while the offenders were on community custody during the previous calendar year, the type of offense, and the sentence imposed for each violation.
     (2) The department shall perform a study to determine the department's current and projected need for more bed space and the department's ability to adequately supervise the current and projected number of offenders serving a term of community custody. The department shall report the results of this study along with a plan to increase the number of beds, as appropriate, and to efficiently and effectively improve its supervision ability to the governor and the legislature by January 1, 2008. For purposes of this subsection, "adequately supervise" means to supervise in a manner that reduces recidivism by minimizing the number of community custody violations and new crimes committed by offenders under supervision."
