The guidelines shall be replaced by regulations promulgated by the department consistent with the Regulatory Review Act within the two-year period during which the guidelines are effective. The regulations shall include a requirement that community-based therapeutic communities utilized in the drug offender treatment program be accredited as a therapeutic community for treatment of drug and alcohol abuse and addiction by the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities or other nationally recognized accreditation organization for community-based therapeutic communities for drug and alcohol addiction treatment.
