 1. Designated areas of the matrix indicate restrictive intermediate punishments may be imposed as a substitute for incarceration.
2. When restrictive intermediate punishments are appropriate, the duration of the restrictive intermediate punishment programs are recommended not to exceed the guideline ranges.
3. When the range is RS through a number of months (e.g. RS-6), RIP may be appropriate.
4. All numbers in sentence recommendations suggest months of minimum confinement pursuant to 42 Pa.C.S. 9755(b) and 9756(b).
5. Statutory classification (e.g., F1, F2, etc.) in brackets reflect the omnibus OGS assignment for the given grade.

Key:
BC = boot camp RIP = restrictive intermediate punishments
CNTY = county RS = restorative sanctions
INCAR = incarceration SBI = serious bodily injury
PWID = possession with intent to deliver SL = statutory limit (longest minimum sentence)
REVOC = repeat violent offender category ~ = no recommendation (aggravated sentence would exceed statutory limit)
RFEL = repeat felony 1 and felony 2 offender category < ; > = less than; greater than
