of the inspection.
Areas

Within these

the inspection consisted of
selective

records,
interviews

and observations
by the inspector.
Within the scope of this inspection,
no items of noncompliance

One new unresolved
item resulted
from this inspection
and is discussed
in the
inspection report.
We are concerned
about this item involving a Unit

In your response
to this letter,
please
address
the steps
taken to improve your administrative
controls
and
