    §  168-g.  Prior  convictions;  duty  to inform and register.   1. The
  division  of  parole  or  department  of  probation   and   correctional
  alternatives  in  accordance  with  risk factors pursuant to section one
  hundred sixty-eight-l of this article shall determine  the  duration  of
  registration  and  notification  for  every  sex  offender  who  on  the
  effective date of this article is then on parole  or  probation  for  an
  offense  provided for in subdivision two or three of section one hundred
  sixty-eight-a of this article.
    2. Every sex offender who on the effective date  of  this  article  is
  then  on  parole or probation for an offense provided for in subdivision
  two or three of section one hundred sixty-eight-a of this article  shall
  within  ten calendar days of such determination register with his parole
  or probation officer. On each anniversary of the sex offender's  initial
  registration  date  thereafter,  the  provisions  of section one hundred
  sixty-eight-f of this article shall apply.  Any sex offender  who  fails
  or  refuses  to  so  comply  shall  be  subject to the same penalties as
  otherwise provided for in this article which would be imposed upon a sex
  offender who fails or refuses to so comply with the provisions  of  this
  article on or after such effective date.
    3.  It  shall be the duty of the parole or probation officer to inform
  and register such sex offender according to the requirements imposed  by
  this  article.  A parole or probation officer shall give one copy of the
  form to the sex offender and shall, within three calendar days, send two
  copies electronically or otherwise to the division which  shall  forward
  one  copy  electronically  or  otherwise  to  the law enforcement agency
  having jurisdiction where the sex  offender  resides  upon  his  parole,
  probation, or upon any form of state or local conditional release.
    4.  A  petition  for  relief from this section is permitted to any sex
  offender required to register while  released  on  parole  or  probation
  pursuant to section one hundred sixty-eight-o of this article.
