D.C. Mun. Regs. tit. 5, r. 5-A107
As an alternative to suspending or revoking an existing license when a Child Development Facility ("Facility") has one (1) or more deficiencies, OSSE may issue a restricted license for no more than one (1) year, based upon the anticipated completion of corrective actions required pursuant to a Statement of Deficiencies.
OSSE may issue a restricted license for no more than thirty (30) days if a Facility needs to relocate to its identified contingency location due to a temporary closure, so long as the Facility has a current and valid building use agreement with the contingency location.
A Facility operating under a restricted license shall not enroll additional children.
A Licensee may only operate within the individualized parameters of the restricted license, as determined by OSSE, based on the Facility specific deficiencies.
A restricted license will not be issued for deficiencies that jeopardize the health, safety, or welfare of children, staff, or the general public.
If all of the noted deficiencies are successfully addressed during the restricted license period, OSSE will reinstate the full license that had been in effect to the Licensee.
Failure to successfully complete the corrective action(s), the basis of which resulted in the restricted license, will result in automatic termination of the restricted license or suspension or revocation of the Facility's license, or both.
