Sec. 3. Minnesota Statutes 1994, section 626.556, subdivision 10, is amended to read:
Subd. 10. [DUTIES OF LOCAL WELFARE AGENCY AND LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCY UPON RECEIPT OF A REPORT.] (a) If the report alleges neglect, physical abuse, or sexual abuse by a parent, guardian, or individual functioning within the family unit as a person responsible for the child's care, the local welfare agency shall immediately conduct an assessment and offer protective social services for purposes of preventing further abuses, safeguarding and enhancing the welfare of the abused or neglected minor, and preserving family life whenever possible. If the report alleges a violation of a criminal statute involving sexual abuse, physical abuse, or neglect or endangerment, under section 609.378, the local law enforcement agency and local welfare agency shall coordinate the planning and execution of their respective investigation and assessment efforts to avoid a duplication of fact-finding efforts and multiple interviews. Each agency shall prepare a separate report of the results of its investigation. In cases of alleged child maltreatment resulting in death, the local agency may rely on the fact-finding efforts of a law enforcement investigation to make a determination of whether or not maltreatment occurred. When necessary the local welfare agency shall seek authority to remove the child from the custody of a parent, guardian, or adult with whom the child is living. In performing any of these duties, the local welfare agency shall maintain appropriate records.
(b) When a local agency receives a report or otherwise has information indicating that a child who is a client, as defined in section 245.91, has been the subject of physical abuse, sexual abuse, or neglect at an agency, facility, or program as defined in section 245.91, it shall, in addition to its other duties under this section, immediately inform the ombudsman established under sections 245.91 to 245.97.
(c) Authority of the local welfare agency responsible for assessing the child abuse or neglect report and of the local law enforcement agency for investigating the alleged abuse or neglect includes, but is not limited to, authority to interview, without parental consent, the alleged victim and any other minors who currently reside with or who have resided with the alleged perpetrator offender. The interview may take place at school or at any facility or other place where the alleged victim or other minors might be found or the child may be transported to, and the interview conducted at, a place appropriate for the interview of a child designated by the local welfare agency or law enforcement agency. The interview may take place outside the presence of the perpetrator alleged offender or parent, legal custodian, guardian, or school official. Except as provided in this paragraph, the parent, legal custodian, or guardian shall be notified by the responsible local welfare or law enforcement agency no later than the conclusion of the investigation or assessment that this interview has occurred. Notwithstanding rule 49.02 of the Minnesota rules of procedure for juvenile courts, the juvenile court may, after hearing on an ex parte motion by the local welfare agency, order that, where reasonable cause exists, the agency withhold notification of this interview from the parent, legal custodian, or guardian. If the interview took place or is to take place on school property, the order shall specify that school officials may not disclose to the parent, legal custodian, or guardian the contents of the notification of intent to interview the child on school property, as provided under this paragraph, and any other related information regarding the interview that may be a part of the child's school record. A copy of the order shall be sent by the local welfare or law enforcement agency to the appropriate school official.
(d) When the local welfare or local law enforcement agency determines that an interview should take place on school property, written notification of intent to interview the child on school property must be received by school officials prior to the interview. The notification shall include the name of the child to be interviewed, the purpose of the interview, and a reference to the statutory authority to conduct an interview on school property. For interviews conducted by the local welfare agency, the notification shall be signed by the chair of the local social services agency or the chair's designee. The notification shall be private data on individuals subject to the provisions of this paragraph. School officials may not disclose to the parent, legal custodian, or guardian the contents of the notification or any other related information regarding the interview until notified in writing by the local welfare or law enforcement agency that the investigation or assessment has been concluded. Until that time, the local welfare or law enforcement agency shall be solely responsible for any disclosures regarding the nature of the assessment or investigation.
Except where the alleged perpetrator offender is believed to be a school official or employee, the time and place, and manner of the interview on school premises shall be within the discretion of school officials, but the local welfare or law enforcement agency shall have the exclusive authority to determine who may attend the interview. The conditions as to time, place, and manner of the interview set by the school officials shall be reasonable and the interview shall be conducted not more than 24 hours after the receipt of the notification unless another time is considered necessary by agreement between the school officials and the local welfare or law enforcement agency. Where the school fails to comply with the provisions of this paragraph, the juvenile court may order the school to comply. Every effort must be made to reduce the disruption of the educational program of the child, other students, or school staff when an interview is conducted on school premises.
JOURNAL OF THE HOUSE - 39th Day - Top of Page 1872
(e) Where the perpetrator alleged offender or a person responsible for the care of the alleged victim or other minor prevents access to the victim or other minor by the local welfare agency, the juvenile court may order the parents, legal custodian, or guardian to produce the alleged victim or other minor for questioning by the local welfare agency or the local law enforcement agency outside the presence of the perpetrator alleged offender or any person responsible for the child's care at reasonable places and times as specified by court order.
(g) The commissioner, the ombudsman for mental health and mental retardation, the local welfare agencies responsible for investigating reports, and the local law enforcement agencies have the right to enter facilities as defined in subdivision 2 and to inspect and copy the facility's records, including medical records, as part of the investigation. Notwithstanding the provisions of chapter 13, they also have the right to inform the facility under investigation that they are conducting an investigation, to disclose to the facility the names of the individuals under investigation for abusing or neglecting a child, and to provide the facility with a copy of the report and the investigative findings.
(h) The local welfare agency shall collect available and relevant information to ascertain whether maltreatment occurred and whether protective services are needed. Information collected includes, when relevant, information with regard to the person reporting the alleged maltreatment, including the nature of the reporter's relationship to the child and to the alleged offender, and the basis of the reporter's knowledge for the report; the child allegedly being maltreated; the alleged offender; the child's caretaker; and other collateral sources having relevant information related to the alleged maltreatment. The local welfare agency may make a determination of no maltreatment early in an assessment, and close the case and retain immunity, if the collected information shows no basis for a full assessment or investigation.
(2) the alleged offender's age, a record check for prior reports of maltreatment, and criminal charges and convictions. The local welfare agency must provide the alleged offender with an opportunity to make a statement. The alleged offender may submit supporting documentation relevant to the assessment or investigation;
(3) collateral source information regarding the alleged maltreatment and care of the child. Collateral information includes, when relevant: (i) a medical examination of the child; (ii) prior medical records relating to the alleged maltreatment or the care of the child and an interview with the treating professionals; and (iii) interviews with the child's caretakers, including the child's parent, guardian, foster parent, child care provider, teachers, counselors, family members, relatives, and other persons who may have knowledge regarding the alleged maltreatment and the care of the child.
Nothing in this paragraph precludes the local welfare agency from collecting other relevant information necessary to conduct the assessment or investigation. Notwithstanding the data's classification in the possession of any other agency, data acquired by the local welfare agency during the course of the assessment or investigation are private data on individuals and must be maintained in accordance with subdivision 11.
(i) In the initial stages of an assessment or investigation, the local welfare agency shall conduct a face-to-face observation of the child reported to be maltreated and a face-to-face interview of the alleged offender. The interview with the alleged offender may be postponed if it would jeopardize an active law enforcement investigation.
(j) The local welfare agency shall use a question and answer interviewing format with questioning as nondirective as possible to elicit spontaneous responses. The following interviewing methods and procedures must be used whenever possible when collecting information:

Subd. 3. [EXCEPTIONS.] Notwithstanding subdivisions 1 and 2, the state may at any time bring:
(1) a criminal enforcement action against any person who knowingly commits a violation under Minnesota Statutes, section 609.671;
(2) a civil or administrative enforcement action, which may include a penalty, under Minnesota Statutes, section 115.071 or 116.072, against the owner or operator of a facility if:
(i) less than one year has elapsed since the final resolution of a notice of violation, an administrative penalty order, or a civil or criminal lawsuit that resulted in an enforcement action being taken against the owner or operator of a facility for a violation of a requirement that was also shown as having been violated in the report required under section 9, subdivision 2; or
(ii) a violation caused serious harm to public health or the environment; or
(3) an action against the owner or operator of a facility to enjoin an imminent threat to public health or the environment.
Subd. 4. [GOOD FAITH CONSIDERATION.] If the state finds that one of the conditions in subdivision 3 exists, the state must take into account the good faith efforts of the regulated entity to comply with environmental requirements in deciding whether to pursue an enforcement action, whether an enforcement action should be civil or criminal, and what, if any, penalty should be imposed. In determining whether the regulated entity has acted in good faith, the state must consider whether:
(4) prior to implementing the audit or self-evaluation program, the regulated entity had a history of good faith efforts to comply with the environmental requirements;
JOURNAL OF THE HOUSE - 39th Day - Top of Page 1880
(5) the regulated entity demonstrated good faith efforts to achieve compliance since implementing an environmental auditing or self-evaluation program; and
Subd. 5. [VIOLATIONS DISCOVERED BY THE STATE.] Nothing in this act precludes the state from taking any enforcement action the state is authorized to take with respect to violations discovered by the state prior to the time a regulated entity has submitted to the commissioner a report that meets the requirements of section 9, subdivision 2.
Sec. 13. [GREEN STAR EMBLEM.]
A regulated entity may display at a facility a "green star" emblem designed by the commissioner if:
(1) the regulated entity qualifies for participation in the environmental improvement program under section 9;
(2) the regulated entity certifies that all violations that were identified in the audit or self-evaluation of the facility were corrected within 90 days or within the time specified in an approved performance schedule or certifies that no violations were identified in the audit or self-evaluation; and
(3) at least one year has elapsed since the final resolution of a notice of violation, an administrative penalty order, or a civil or criminal enforcement action involving the regulated entity. The emblem may be displayed for a period of two years from the time that the commissioner determines that the requirements of this section have been met.
Sec. 14. [ACCESS TO DOCUMENTS.]
Subdivision 1. [PUBLIC ACCESS.] The state may not request, inspect, or seize a final audit report, draft audit papers, a self-evaluation form, the notes or papers prepared by the auditor or the person conducting the self-evaluation in connection with the audit or self-evaluation, or the internal documents of a regulated entity establishing, coordinating, or responding to the audit or self-evaluation, other than the report required in section 9, subdivision 2, except in accordance with the agency's policy on environmental auditing, as adopted by the agency on January 24, 1995.
Subd. 2. [THIRD-PARTY ACCESS.] After receipt by the commissioner of a report that complies with section 9, subdivision 2, the final audit report, draft audit reports, the self-evaluation form, any notes or papers prepared by the auditor or by the person conducting the self-evaluation in connection with the audit or self-evaluation, and the internal documents of a regulated entity establishing, coordinating, or responding to the audit or self-evaluation covered by the report are privileged as to all persons other than the state provided that the regulated entity is in compliance with its commitments under sections 9 and 11.
Subd. 3. [NONWAIVER OF PROTECTIONS.] Participation by a regulated entity in the environmental improvement program does not waive, minimize, reduce, or otherwise adversely affect the level of protection or confidentiality that exists, under current or developing common or statutory law, with respect to any other documents relating to an environmental audit or self-evaluation.
Sec. 15. [REPORTING REQUIRED BY LAW.]
Nothing in this act alters the obligation of any regulated entity to report releases, violations, or other matters that are required to be reported by state or federal law, rule, permit, or enforcement action.

JOURNAL OF THE HOUSE - 39th Day - Top of Page 1899
the grant to purchase, improve, and equip existing buildings for use as cottages if appropriate. The commissioner of education shall not award the grant until the school district can demonstrate to the commissioner's satisfaction that appropriate department of human services approval, including licensure, will be granted.
Sec. 2. [RESIDENTIAL PROGRAM OPERATED BY INDEPENDENT SCHOOL DISTRICT NO. 518.]
Subdivision 1. [DURATION OF RESIDENTIAL PROGRAM.] The residential program serving not more than 20 persons, operated by independent school district No. 518, Worthington, may stay in operation without licensure by the commissioner of human services no later than July 1, 1996, provided the program complies with the requirements in this section. The commissioner of human services need not pay any of the costs of operating the residential program before it is licensed. The maximum capacity of the program is 20 persons.
Subd. 2. [DEFINITION.] "Controlling individual," for purposes of this section, is defined in Minnesota Statutes, section 245A.02, subdivision 5a.
Subd. 3. [REQUIREMENTS.] The controlling individual of the residential program shall:
(1) Minnesota Rules, parts 9543.3000 to 9543.3090;
(2) Minnesota Rules, parts 9525.2700 to 9525.2810;
(3) Minnesota Rules, parts 9525.0215 to 9525.0355;
(4) Minnesota Rules, parts 9555.8000 to 9555.8500;
(5) Minnesota Rules, parts 4665.0100 to 4665.9900;
(6) Minnesota Statutes, section 626.556;
(7) Minnesota Statutes, section 626.557;
(8) Minnesota Statutes, section 245.94, subdivision 2a; and
(9) any other laws applicable to the residential program not specified in clauses (1) to (8);
(b) allow access to the residential program by the department of human services and department of health, in accordance with Minnesota Statutes, sections 245A.04, subdivision 5, and 144.653, subdivisions 2 and 3, respectively;
(c) allow access to the physical plant and grounds by officials charged with the responsibility of enforcing health, safety, and building codes, and comply with the health, safety, and building codes; and
(d) not accept any new referrals for long-term placement that exceed 90 days without the written approval of the commissioners of health, human services, and education.
Subd. 4. [POWERS AND DUTIES OF COMMISSIONERS.] The commissioner of education shall offer technical assistance to the controlling individual of the residential program to facilitate the process by which the program can obtain future financial assistance to continue with the plan to move the individuals currently in the residential program to different settings, and any other technical assistance, as requested by the controlling individual.
The commissioners of human services and health may grant waivers and variances as necessary under Minnesota Statutes, section 245A.04, subdivision 9, and Minnesota Rules, part 4665.0600, respectively.
Subd. 5. [CORRECTION ORDERS.] (a) If either the commissioner of health or human services finds that the program has failed to comply with an applicable law or rule, and this failure does not imminently endanger the health, safety, or rights of the persons served by the program, either commissioner may issue a correction order to the controlling individual. The correction order must state:
JOURNAL OF THE HOUSE - 39th Day - Top of Page 1900
(b) Nothing in this section prohibits the commissioner from proposing a sanction as specified in subdivision 7 prior to issuing a correction order or fine.
Subd. 6. [RECONSIDERATION.] If the controlling individual believes that the contents of the commissioner's correction order are in error, the controlling individual may ask the appropriate commissioner to reconsider the parts of the correction order that are alleged to be in error. The request for reconsideration must be in writing, delivered by certified mail, and:
A request for reconsideration does not stay any provisions or requirements of the correction order. The commissioner's disposition of a request for reconsideration is final and not subject to appeal.
Subd. 7. [SANCTION.] If, upon reinspection, the commissioner of human services or health finds that the program has not corrected the violations specified in the correction order, that commissioner may impose an appropriate sanction. The most serious sanction imposed is the closure of the physical plant of the residential program. The commissioner may secure an injunction against the continuing operation of the program of a controlling individual who does not comply with applicable law or rule. When applying sanctions authorized under this section, the commissioner shall consider the nature, chronicity, or severity of the violation of law or rule and the effect of the violation on the health, safety, or rights of persons served by the program.
Subd. 8. [IMMEDIATE CLOSURE IN CASES OF IMMINENT DANGER TO HEALTH, SAFETY, OR RIGHTS.] If the controlling individual's failure to comply with applicable law or rule of either the department of health or the department of human services has placed the health, safety, or rights of persons served by the program in imminent danger, the commissioner of that agency shall act immediately to close the physical plant of the residential program. No state funds shall be made available or be expended by any agency or department of state, county, or municipal government for use by the controlling individual for the program. A notice stating the reasons for the immediate suspension and informing the controlling individual of the right to a contested case hearing under Minnesota Statutes, chapter 14, must be delivered by personal service to the address shown on the application or the last known address of the controlling individual. The controlling individual may appeal an order immediately closing the program. The appeal of an order immediately closing the physical plant of the residential program must be made in writing by certified mail and must be received by the commissioner within five calendar days after the program receives notice that the license has been immediately suspended. Notwithstanding a pending appeal to close the residential program, a controlling individual shall discontinue operation of the program upon receipt of the commissioner's order to immediately close the physical plant of the residential program.
Sec. 3. [STUDY OF EXPANSION TO MEET RESPITE CARE NEEDS.]
The commissioner of human services, in cooperation with the commissioners of education and health and the ombudsman for mental health and mental retardation, shall study the need for and methods for expanding the total number of beds at the Lakeview school site to 35. The study shall consider the need for periodic and scheduled respite care for persons with developmental disabilities. The study may consider meeting some or all of the need for additional beds by developing or expanding capacity elsewhere in the area. The commissioner of human services shall report to the legislature with recommendations by January 1, 1996.
