Corrective actions may be identified and scheduled in the operating plan with the authorized officer’s concurrence. Keep the report in the case file and provide a copy to the holder.

Failure to correct deficiencies identified and scheduled must be documented in a notice of noncompliance to the holder.

In addition, the notice must identify the timeframe for correcting the noncompliance and the consequences for failure to correct it within that timeframe. Send the notice by certified mail or hand deliver it.
