A finding that the complaint is unsubstantiated means that although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of the evidence to prove that the alleged occurred. However, should additional information be provided then this complaint can be reassessed.

An exit interview was conducted, the report was read, and a copy of this report was left with the Licensee with notice of the site visit and appeal rights. Failure to maintain posting of the Notice of Site Visit for thirty (30) consecutive days will result in a $100 Civil Penalty.
