Inspector Notes
An unannounced inspection was initiated on July 6, 2023 with a representative of a local agency in response to a self-reported incident regarding a forbidden action. Interviews with staff were completed and documentation was reviewed.
The preponderance of the evidence gathered during the investigation supports the allegation; therefore, the self report is determined to be valid.
