(a) The details of the reoffense;

(b) Any changes to the ongoing assessment, treatment plan, level of treatment, or minimum treatment period and requirements for the participant as a result of the reoffense or if the program has discharged the participant because the program feels the participant is unlikely to benefit from additional time at the program; and

(c) The notification of the reoffense to the referral source.

(5) The program must document reoffenses or noncompliance in:

(a) The participant's record;

(b) Reports to the court, if applicable; and
