Was fer ine tracaperting ef abildvan tar inal day May 06, 4048. The erhagaration jag was Hat
maintained in that there was not an arrival or departure time documented, children were not marked off
as getting on the vehicle and/or off the vehicle, nor were there driver initials ar second staff initials
verifying a physical inspection ware conducted. The only information pravided on the iog for May 29,
2019 at the time of inspection was an “ON” tima of "2:35" for Thundarboilt Elementary schoai, a dash
through “GROUP TIME ON/OFF" for St, Johns Elementary School. an “X" through every child's box for
St, Johns and the mileage start (79492) mileage end (79502) was documented. Counselor reviewed the

river initials [RH] and second staff initials [SH] verifying physical inspections were conducted. The

PM. This is not accurate information in that the counsalor observed stalf member R.H. arrive at the
facility at 3:06 PM. The initials/signatures verifying the physical inspection was conducted are nat
accurate information in that there were no physical inspections, of the vehicle used to transport the
children, until roughly 3:20 PM when counselor entered tha program and instructed staff member R.H.
that a physical Inspection of the vehicle needed to be conducted. At that time, with counselor present,
the driver R.H. conducted a physical Inapection of the vehicle: there was not 4 second physical
