1. If a parolee is incarcerated in a county jail for a violation of a condition of his or her parole or because his or her residential confinement is terminated pursuant to NRS 213.15198, the sheriff of that county shall notify the Chief. If there are no other criminal charges pending or warrants outstanding for the parolee, the Division shall take custody of the parolee within:
(a) Five working days after the inquiry held pursuant to NRS 213.1511 is conducted.
