During the exit interview, the applicant, confirmed that there are no Registered Sex Offenders living in the facility and LPA completed the RSO profile in FAS.

No registered sex offenders were found at the facility addresses. Under state law, some registered sex offenders are not subject to public disclosure; therefore, they may not have been included in this search.

Megan's Law web site was provided (http://www.meganslaw.ca.gov).
