During a review conducted on 9.02.2022 it was determined that: (1) the Administrator failed to ensure compliance with the current HM Plans; and (2) 12 months had elapsed since the effective date of the plan. The heightened monitoring plans for this operation included a specific ?planned end date? at the 12-month mark by which the operation was expected to meet all heightened monitoring criteria necessary to move out of active heightened monitoring to a phase of ?post plan monitoring?. As a direct result of the administrator?s failure to ensure timely compliance with heightened monitoring plans, this operation is now unable to successfully move to post-plan monitoring. Furthermore, the operation?s ?planned end date? must now be revised, and the period of heightened monitoring must be extended. Further details of the administrator?s failure to ensure compliance include the following: - Operation failed to satisfy the conditions of the plan - Operation failed to demonstrate 6 months of successive compliance with the standard and contract requirements that led to heightened monitoring;
