Programs that seek to prevent released arson offenders from committing new crimes by requiring them to register with local law enforcement officials or other agencies enabling fire and law enforcement investigators to see the addresses and criminal histories of convicted fire starters. The duty to register is reserved for anyone convicted of maliciously setting a fire to property (this may exclude vandalism by arson in certain circumstances), committing arson to cause bodily injury, arson of an inhabited structure or property, arson of a structure or forest land, attempted arson, possession of a device to commit arson and possessing or manufacturing a firebomb. Unlike most sex offender registries, arson offender registries are not open to the general public and there is no community notification process.
