(ii) The Division has received a complaint or information that suggests or alleges conditions or practices that could threaten the health, safety, rights, or welfare of individuals; or
(iii) The Division has reason to believe a certification review is necessary to ensure an ADSS is in substantial compliance with these rules, service delivery rules, other applicable administrative rules, contractual obligations or with conditions placed on the certificate.
