     (3) The standard range disposition for each offense is determined by the intersection of the column defined by the prior adjudications and the row defined by the current offense category.
     (4) RCW 13.40.180 applies if the offender is being sentenced for more than one offense.
     (5) A current offense that is a violation is equivalent to an offense category of E. However, a disposition for a violation shall not include confinement.

               OPTION B
                    SUSPENDED DISPOSITION ALTERNATIVE


     (1) If the offender is subject to a standard range disposition involving confinement by the department, the court may impose the standard range and suspend the disposition on condition that the offender comply with one or more local sanctions and any educational or treatment requirement. The treatment programs provided to the offender must be either research-based best practice programs as identified by the Washington state institute for public policy or the joint legislative audit and review committee, or for chemical dependency treatment programs or services, they must be evidence-based or research-based best practice programs. For the purposes of this subsection:
     (a) "Evidence-based" means a program or practice that has had multiple site random controlled trials across heterogeneous populations demonstrating that the program or practice is effective for the population; and
     (b) "Research-based" means a program or practice that has some research demonstrating effectiveness, but that does not yet meet the standard of evidence-based practices.
     (2) If the offender fails to comply with the suspended disposition, the court may impose sanctions pursuant to RCW 13.40.200 or may revoke the suspended disposition and order the disposition's execution.
     (3) An offender is ineligible for the suspended disposition option under this section if the offender is:
     (a) Adjudicated of an A+ offense;

     (c) Ordered to serve a disposition for a firearm violation under RCW 13.40.193; or
     (d) Adjudicated of a sex offense as defined in RCW 9.94A.030.


               OR



               OPTION C
                    CHEMICAL DEPENDENCY DISPOSITION ALTERNATIVE


     If the juvenile offender is subject to a standard range disposition of local sanctions or 15 to 36 weeks of confinement and has not committed an A- or B+ offense, the court may impose a disposition under RCW 13.40.160(4) and 13.40.165.
