That the code of West Virginia, 1931, as amended, be amended
by adding thereto a new section, designated §28-7-4, to read as
follows:
ARTICLE 7. INTERSTATE COMPACT FOR THE SUPERVISION OF ADULT
OFFENDERS
.
§28-7-4. Transfer application fee.
On and after the first day of July, two thousand four, the division of corrections may charge an application fee set by the
division, not to exceed one hundred dollars, to adult offenders
applying for transfer out-of-state under the interstate compact for
the supervision of adult offenders. There is created a special
revenue account in the state treasury designated the "Interstate
