Furthermore, your operation?s ?planned end date? must now be revised, and the period of heightened monitoring must be extended. Further details of the failure of your operation?s administrator to ensure compliance include the following: - Operation was unable to meet compliance with Medium-High or High weighted licensing citations, including having an open investigation(s).
