24/7 Sobriety Program

Participation in the 24/7 Sobriety Program may be ordered through the court as a condition of bond, pre-trial release, or as a condition of sentence or probation for any violation where drugs or alcohol may be involved, cases involving domestic abuse, or abuse/neglect of a child.

An individual may also get approval through the ND Department of Transportation to volunteer and participate in the 24/7 Sobriety Program in order to obtain a temporary restricted driver’s license (TRDL).

So if you are scheduled to blow at 7am, you have from 6:45am to 7:15am time frame. Cost for blowing is $1.00 per blow which is $2.00 per day. Failure to report on time or blowing hot is an immediate arrest.
