This facility is located on the same premises as licensed facility 198400109. Regional Manager, Amanda would like for this facility to be added and associated to the current license 198400109.

Once the facility receives confirmation from USC mail services, then it will prompt another STD 850 to the Severance St address. Applicant will need to submit an updated LIC 200 Application to reflect the changes.

The facility cannot be licensed until the information is updated.
