Evaluation and determination of individual with developmental disability—Program placement—Admissions, limitation.
(1) A defendant found incompetent by the court under RCW 10.77.084 must be evaluated at the direction of the secretary and a determination made whether the defendant is an individual with a developmental disability.

A copy of the evaluation must be sent to the program.
(a) The program must be separate from programs serving persons involved in any other treatment or habilitation program.
(b) The program must be appropriately secure under the circumstances and must be administered by developmental disabilities professionals who shall direct the habilitation efforts.
(c) The program must provide an environment affording security appropriate with the charged criminal behavior and necessary to protect the public safety.

(4) The department may establish admission priorities in the event that the number of eligible persons exceeds the limits set by the department.
