Wardens, superintendents and parole region administrators will obtain the director's approval before voluntarily absenting themselves from duty for more than one regular state workday. Each warden, superintendent and parole region administrator will submit for the director's approval the names and titles of three top-ranking subordinates who will serve in the administrator's place during temporary absences. The persons named will be designated as first, second and third alternate, to serve as acting warden, superintendent or region administrator. While so acting, the person designated has the same authority and power as the warden, superintendent or region administrator.
