SECTION III I COMPONENT SUMMARY
NAME OF COMPONENT: I Community Service and Restitution, Level II
1. Statement of the Problem: In concise terminology, describe how the program will address continuum need(s) in
the county.
What are the Intensive Intervention needs the program intends to address?
How will the program effectively serve juveniles at different levels of involvement with juvenile justice?
Describe the gap in continuum of services for the population you will serve.
The Community Service and Restitution (CSR) Level II Program Component addresses a priority for JCPC funding as
defined by NC General Statutes GS 1436-549: "Each County Council shall ensure that appropriate intermediate
dispositional options are available and shall prioritize funding for dispositional intermediate and community -level
sanctions for court adjudicated juveniles under minimum standards adopted by the Department (of Public Safety)".
Intermediate dispositional options are available in New Hanover County and the CSR Level II Program has a proven
track record of working with these high risk youth, as well as the organizational capacity to admit youth immediately to
meet the youth's court ordered community service and/or restitution by providing youth opportunities to engage in civic,
community and social responsibilities while incorporating a service learning model to reduce recidivism and delinquent
behaviors. New Hanover County and the CSR Level II Program provides intermediate dispositional options appropriate
to the elevated risk and needs of Level II youth in the community. The CSR Level II Program has admitted 100% of
referred Level II juveniles since its inception by utilizing County resources, maintaining current partnerships and
growing organizational capacity. What is needed in order to continue current programming by serving Level II higher
risk youth is the continued funding of a full time staff member to sufficiently provide services for the youth court ordered
community service and the increased community service hours for Level II youth as a dispositional alternative for
additional community service hours up to 200 as defined by GS 713-2506-23 such as when a probation violation occurs.
The Level II CSR Program, due to its low youth to staff ratio allows for the safe provision of Community Service and
Restitution programming to gang involved youth and high risk youth who have a history of violent behavior or are
reported to be targeted for violence. Intense service planning allows for the consideration of scheduling
accommodations for youth served with multiple co-defendants or avoidance of other program participants who may be
in rival gangs. The extra staffing for this program allows for 1:1 supervision of youth and the creation of individualized
work settings that enable the CSR program assistant to control for factors that may pose a risk to a particular youth
(avoidance of public spaces, interaction with other suspected gang members, location of where the offence occurred,
avoiding exposure to high risk areas of the community). Lastly, the closure of numerous community organizations,
schools, and service providers since the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic has only exasperated the need for
programming and support tailored to the specific risk and needs of our youth with the most elevated criminogenic
factors.
2. Target Population: Describe the target population, including age, and the steps taken to insure that the target
population is served.
Target population are Level II, delinquent and high risk male and female youth, ages 10-18 that are referred by DPS
Juvenile Court Counselors for services.
Selected high risk Level I adjudicated juveniles, with a medium risk or a medium needs score that require a Level II
disposition, and their parents/guardians, may be referred and accepted as low priority referrals.
Level III juveniles transitioning from a Youth Development Center will also be eligible.

NAME OF COMPONENT:
Community Service and Restitution, Level II
3. Program Goal(s): Provide a brief statement to describe the overall purpose and effect of the program.
The overall purpose of the CSR Program Component for Level II higher risk youth is to facilitate juveniles completing
their required court ordered community service and/or restitution successfully/satisfactorily in a timely manner while
teaching, modeling and encouraging civic, community, and social responsibilities to the youth served while
incorporating a service learning model to reduce recidivism and prevent delinquent behaviors. The Level II CSR
Program offers individualized and intensive service planning to bolster increased skill development in a safe
community setting while youth complete their court ordered community service obligations. Each youth is actively
engaged in their own aftercare planning process, along with referral agencies, parents, and worksites to ensure the
tailored plan best meets the risks, needs and available protective factors for that youth.
Level II youth and families are provided access to free Case Management services provided by NHC CJS, aimed at
meeting the entire family's needs through a holistic approach to promoting self sufficiency. Some consistent areas of
focus for Case Management services are housing, healthcare access, employment assistance, coordination with
school personnel, and general linkage to available community resources.
Level II youth are also afforded the opportunity to participate in an 8 week Job Skills Development (JSD) component
designed to prepare youth with soft skills necessary to enter the workforce. The JSD component is offered through a
formal partnership with Cape Fear Community College (CFCC) and is held on the downtown campus.
The Level II component has remained open, and has provided continual service to Level II youth throughout the onset,
and duration, of the Covid-19 pandemic.
4. Measurable Objective(s): State in measurable terms (%) the intended effect of the program on specific
undisciplined and/or delinquent behaviors. Example: anticipated reductions in court referrals, runaway behavior,
disruptive behavior at school, anticipated improved school attendance and academic achievement. These objectives
must include impact on participants.
70% Clients successfully/satisfactorily completing the program will have no new complaints in the 12 months following
completion.
70% Clients successfully/satisfactorily completing the program will have no new adjudications in the 12 months
following completion.
70% Clients will have no new complaints with an offense date after the admission date.
70% Clients will successfully or satisfactorily complete services as intended by the program design/service plan.
70% Clients will complete restitution or community service within the timeframe permitted by JCPC policy.
70% Clients will demonstrate accountability by actively participating in restitution/community service activities.
70% Clients will have no new adjudications for a complaint with an offense date after the admission date.
5. Elevated Risks and Needs: Describe how you will address one or more of the Elevated Risk and Needs of
adjudicated juveniles referenced in the Intensive Intervention services Request for Proposals.
Be sure to identify the specific risk and/or needs item(s) you will address.
New Hanover County (NHC) had 26 youth with Level II dispositional sanctions in FY 19-20. (Data extrapolated from
the NCDPS FY 2021-2022 JCPC- Endorsed Level II Dispositional Alternative Programs Request for Proposals). Also,
in District 7 there were 499 "Raise the Age Complaints" in the first year following implementation of the new law. (Data

SECTION III I COMPONENT SUMMARY
NAME OF COMPONENT: I Community Service and Restitution, Level II
from the Juvenile Justice Advisory Committee, Juvenile Age Interim Report) Since March 1st of 2020, the program has
served 34 youth with a level II disposition, and continued to provide services throughout the onset of the Covid-19
pandemic until now. Thus far in this fiscal year the Level II program has facilitated and supervised the completion of
798 community service hours by youth with a level II disposition. The NHC Level II program has served 299 youth on
Level II probation since its inception in 2011 and has admitted 100% of youth referred by court counselors this FY.
As an immediate alternative disposition for Level II juvenile offenders who violate probation, the court counselor is able
to assign additional community service hours for the youth via court order versus being placed in secure custody. This
alternative saves the county and state funds otherwise spent on housing these juveniles.
The New Hanover County Juvenile Crime Prevention Council has listed the following as elevated Risk and Needs of
adjudicated juveniles per the most recent local JCPC Request for Proposal: Association with other delinquent peers
involved with gangs; moderate to serious behavioral problems at school; prior assaultive behavior; involvement in
alcohol and substance abuse; prior referrals to juvenile court; referral to juvenile court prior to age 12 and inadequate
supervision by parents/guardians. The CSR Level II component addresses the identified risk and needs across the
peer, individual, family and school domains by providing priority referrals to NHC funded case management services
and facilitating youth learning civic, community and social responsibility via individual mentoring and skill development
in an effort to model prosocial behavior, promote responsibility/accountability and increase the youth's capacity to
interact with the community in a positive way. Upon termination from the program, youth/guardian and referral sources
are provided an aftercare plan outlining recommendations for participation in outside agency programming, school
participation, community/vocational involvement, etc. The Level II program assistant initiates contact with outside
agencies/worksites to promote participation in aftercare recommendations when requested by guardians.

NAME OF COMPONENT: I Community Service and Restitution, Level II
1. Location: List physical address(es) and describe where program services are delivered.
The CSR Level II Program Component services are provided on site with DPS Court Counselors in the juvenile
courthouse facility located at 138 N. Fourth Street, Wilmington, NC 28401. Administrative offices are located at 320
Chestnut Street Suite 518, Wilmington NC, 28401. Additionally, there are over 20 established Community Justice
Services approved community service worksites located throughout the community where youth are placed to earn
their hours. The large variety of worksites and community partners allows the CSR Level II Program to individualize the
placement of Level II youth based on their specific skill set and minimizes transportation barriers.
NHC CJS has a formal partnership with Cape Fear Community College (CFCC) which has provided Level II youth with
access to a wide array of CFCC resources, including weekly Job Skill Development modules facilitated at the
downtown campus. CFCC provides a monthly campus tour for program youth, quarterly FAFSA/admission open
houses, and has established an email portal for all YES inquiries.
Through structural changes within CJS and expansion funds associated with Raise The Age (RTA) the CSR Program
has also deployed a mobile job lab to provide onsite services to older youth with elevated risk and needs paired with
barriers to service. Lab services have been limited somewhat due to Covid-19 and are scheduled to resume in full this
summer. The mobile lab will be administered in community centers, public housing facilities, partner worksites and
NHC buildings. This lab will empower youth with soft skills necessary to enter the local job market and provide
immersion into the rapid shift of employment resources onto electronic platforms.
Lastly, the Level II program continues to leverage NHC resources to adapt to the new realities imposed by the Covid-
19 pandemic. These resources have allowed staff to provide remote, virtual and innovative service opportunities to
Level II youth that will continue to evolve to ensure all Level II youth are afforded an opportunity to be successful and
abstain from further involvement in the justice system. Staff have provided three weekly virtual offerings for the past
year, including basic job skill development, life skills, and individualized sessions that assist youth in planning for their
future and promote exploration of post -secondary educational opportunities and community development.
2. Operation: Describe the daily/weekly schedule of program operation.
Monday - Friday 8:00 - 7:00 and Saturday 8:00 - 5:00 hours of operation provides flexibility needed to serve youth in
accordance with child labor laws and offers appropriate times for youth to work in order to increase successful
completions. Worksite locations are varied in order to be accessible for youth living in different areas of New Hanover
County and operate typically from 4-7 during the week when school is in session and from 8-12/1-5 on weekends. Staff
have also used innovative approaches to providing service opportunities for youth during the Covid-19 pandemic.

process.
b) Interaction with Juvenile Court Counselors, other juvenile justice staff, and youth development centers, if applicable,
including frequency, ongoing meetings, and other means of communication.
Referral Process: The referring DPS Court Counselor completes a written referral form and submits it to the CSR
Coordinator requesting services for the youth. The Level II assistant attends all juvenile court hearing to best serve
youth/families and to ensure they are current on all new information and any potential charges. Youth are typically
seen for intake into the program on the same day as their disposition has been rendered in court and community
service hours are ordered. If the family is unable to complete intake on the day community service hours are court
ordered, staff schedules an intake appointment prior to the youth and guardian leaving court.
Screening Process: All youth are screened during the intake visit and accepted for services unless, during the intake

Admission Process: Youth and parent participate in a one hour intake conducted by CSR staff where an individual
service plan is completed and on the job expectations are explained as well as appropriate/acceptable behaviors and
child labor laws, safety rules and regulations. Some of the factors specific to the youth that are taken into consideration
during the intake process include; school schedule, parent/guardian work schedule, location of youth's home in relation
to appropriate worksites, special interests/skills the youth may have, developmental needs expressed by parents/
guardians, and the youth's particular charge and risk level. At the end of the intake, the youth is assigned to a
mandatory orientation/training, which includes an introduction to the resources needed to access vocational
opportunities within the community and job skill/safety training. Upon completion of the orientation, youth are assigned
to an appropriate agency approved community worksite based on the information gathered regarding any safety
issues, youth's likes/dislikes, transportation issues, etc. Every attempt is made to place youth at a worksite that takes
into account their individual situation and needs.

at a community service worksite.
*If youth/family are unable to attend intake orientation or termination meeting, particularly if the scenario involves a
Covid-19 restriction, the program has capacity to complete these steps using HIPPA compliant platforms. (Microsoft

6. Termination Process: Describe the termination process, to include:
a) The staff responsible for making decisions.
b) The process for making the decision to terminate.
c)The criteria for a successful termination, satisfactory termination, unsuccessful completion, and non-compliant
termination.
For the CSR Level II Program Component, the CSR Coordinator is responsible for determining the type of termination.
The youth is terminated successfully and/or satisfactorily upon completing their court obligated service in a timely
fashion within the parameters of their probation. The youth is terminated unsuccessfully if the youth does not complete
the required community service hours as court ordered. The youth is terminated noncompliant if the youth refuses to
comply and does not attend the intake or complete any court ordered community service hours.
Upon completion of their service, youth are administered a post ethics questionnaire, youth and/or parent complete a
Customer Service Survey, youth receive a Certificate of Completion and Termination Summary. Prior to termination
the CSR Level II Program Assistant develops an individualized aftercare plan based on interactions and consultations
with the juvenile, guardian and court counselor. Aftercare plans make specific recommendations for youth in three
separate categories: community, education, recreation and build upon the youth service experience and robust
community partners.
A comprehensive list of termination procedures (including mandated timelines for completion) is contained within the
CSR Level II Program Manual.
How are the Juvenile Court Counselor and/or other juvenile justice staff involved in the termination process?
For the CSR Level II Program Component, the DPS Court Counselor is informed on an ongoing basis regarding the
youth's progress or lack thereof through oral and written communication via email and voicemail messages, and
individual progress notes and 30 day progress reports. CSR staff also provides court counselors with mid month
progress reports, notification of a no show within 24 hours, monthly activity calendars, and notification of any changes
in the youth's status at school or at home in order to fully collaborate regarding the progress of the youth. Prior to
termination, CSR staff communicates with the youth's court counselor to obtain information regarding the youth's
progress with juvenile court and school, positive parental involvement and participation in other services. The final
status of the youth is provided to the court counselor when the youth's service terminates via a Termination Summary.
The Court Counselor is also consulted for input in developing an aftercare plan for the youth.
7. Referring Agency Interaction: Describe the interaction with Juvenile Court Counselors and/or other juvenile

efficient and timely sharing of pertinent information.
All level II youth and families are made aware of free case management services offered by CJS. Case management
receives referrals from the Level II program and from DPS Court Counselors and frequently collaborate to ensure basic
needs of youth and family are being met.
8. Intervention/Treatment: Describe specifically:
What will the component do to address intensive intervention continuum needs and/or redirect inappropriate youth
behavior?
How will the component address the identified needs of the youth and family?
What interventions will typically be utilized in this component?
How will parents/guardians be involved?
What is the therapeutic element within the service?
The CSR Level II Program utilizes the following as interventions to facilitate the youth learning civic and social
responsibilities along with age appropriate job skill development: Youth and parent participate in a one hour intake
conducted by CSR staff where an individual service plan is completed and on the job expectations are explained as
well as appropriate/acceptable behaviors and child labor laws, safety rules and regulations. Youth attend trainings that
include onsite demonstrations of proper work techniques and job skills provided by the agency staff and/or worksite
supervisor. Strategies such as utilization of one on one and small work groups allows Level II staff to emphasize
mentoring youth on meaningful, prosocial community involvement and useful skill development. Level II staff have
frequent contact with parents/guardians via reminder calls, providing updates regarding the CSR activity calendar,
following up with unexcused absences/behavioral issues, and mailing out of compliance letters when needed. Level II
youth with specific needs/concerns such as, significant behavioral health issues or unique geographical situations, a
specific worksite may be developed to help meet the youth's individual needs. Free Case Management services,
provided by CJS, are offered to address issues spanning the entire family to ensure basic needs are being met and
unaddressed issues or resource deficiencies within the household are met with available community resources.
Inappropriate behaviors/issues that are displayed by youth are handled via individual mentoring, redirection into a new
activity or project, and collaboration with parents/guardians and court counselors regarding positive strategies that can
be utilized to replace negative behaviors. Upon completion of their requirements, youth complete a customer
satisfaction survey. The CSR Level II Program has a manualized protocol for service delivery as summarized:
- Intake/orientation procedures are described in detail from the point of the program receiving a referral from a DPS
Court Counselor and includes detailed timelines related to correspondence with court staff. Information is gathered
from both the youth and guardian to ensure service planning is individualized. The number of service hours/sessions is
court ordered.
- All worksite placement procedures are detailed and include the method of selecting an individualized placement for
the youth that takes into account their specific skill level, interests, compatibility and any transportation needs. All
worksite projects are planned in advance and include an activity/lesson plan that contains a detailed work plan and list
of objectives related to the activity.
- Termination procedures are detailed and include specific instructions related to communication with the youth's court
counselor and guardian regarding their termination status and after care planning recommendations.

9. Best Practice Model: Describe what evidence based/support model(s) or practice the program will use.
While the OJJ Model Programs Guide does not contain a CSR model program, the CSR Level II Program Component
is based on the evidence-supported/best practice model the "balanced approach" to juvenile probation that was
introduced by Dennis Maloney, Dennis Romig, and Troy Armstrong. Beginning with recognition of three goals of
juvenile corrections, this approach requires that probation services incorporate a balance among: 1. Protecting public
safety by effectively monitoring the behavior of juvenile offenders; 2. Holding offenders accountable for their offenses
and to their victims; and 3. Facilitating the youth's competency development via rehabilitative and skill building
services. Because of its emphasis on atonement, restitution is often an important part of restorative justice models.
Community service, like restitution, involves the offender giving something back to the community at large rather than
directly to the victim. Both restitution and community service have potential to promote offender accountability to the
community or to victims. The best of these activities have desirable competency development benefits to the offenders
by poviding meaningful, prosocial community involvement and useful skill development. A review of research suggests
that restitution can reduce recidivism to some extent (Lipsey; Schneider). Our program incorporates best practices
according to cited research to facilitate the youth completing their court ordered obligations successfully while
teaching, modeling and encouraging civic, community and social responsibilities while incorporating a service learning
model to the youth we serve. CSR Level II Program's standardized protocol for effectiveness for all accepted referrals
is tracking data via NC ALLIES and recidivism data collected every 6 months. All data related to the evaluation of
program effectiveness is maintained either online via NC ALLIES or with recidivism data, a hard copy of the
information is kept. Customer satisfaction surveys are also utilized. The CSR coordinator conducts both scheduled and
random worksite reviews to ensure adherence to the CSR model of service delivery. Any deviations detected in service
delivery are reported to the Program Manager and a written plan of correction is developed. This includes a detailed
action plan addressing identified problems and onsite monitoring of worksite activities by the CSR Coordinator until
protocol deviations have been corrected. All staff receive annual written performance evaluations based on adherence
to JCPC program and protocol comprising minimally of quarterly feedback documenting any areas in need of
improvement.

Ms. Pamela Stokes

Dear Ms. Stokes:
New Hanover County Youth Empowerment Services has been awarded funding from the North
Carolina Department of Public safety to enhance (not duplicate) it's existing Community Service
and Restitution Program since 2011. The funding has been utilized to provide services to youth
on Level II probation who receive up to 200 hours of community service as an intermediate
dispositional alternative sanction to secure custody. The need for highly supervised community
service and restitution services has been exacerbated by the increase in the risk level of
admitted youth and severity of their criminal activity as a result of older juveniles being served
following Raise the Age and the current Covid-19 environment.
Since its inception, the program has served 298 youth on Level II probation. During the first 7
months of this fiscal year (July 1, 2020 through February 5, 2021), a total of 30 level II youth
have been served. Currently, the Community Service and Restitution Level II program
component has successfully admitted 100 percent of youth referred by the court counselors for
services this fiscal year. The successful admission rate highlights the effective and streamlined
procedures ensuring youth have access to much needed services.
The Level II program assistant position is critical to ensuring the needs of our community's
youth with the greatest risk and need levels are met. Level II youth often present with an array
of risk factors, including gang involvement, substance use issues, decreased school
participation, mental health needs, safety concerns, etc. For each admitted youth, the program
assistant develops a detailed individualized service plan, accounting for specific service
impediments ranging from limited transportation options, work/school schedules, safety
concerns, etc. while also building upon youth interests, strengths, age, ability and need.
Program goals are focused on equipping successful participants with improved interpersonal
communication, time management skills, basic skills necessary to enter the local job market and
an immersion in community based protective factors. The Level II component remained in
operation throughout the Covid-19 Pandemic and worked with youth to complete 798 total
service hours to date in this fiscal year. The level 11 component also makes available, to all
admitted youth and families, case management services through the YES Case Management
Program which addresses any needs for all individuals living in the household; to include
healthcare, employment, housing, etc. The Level 11 program component is currently operating a
virtual, 8 -week job skills course in conjunction with 3 other online platform offerings and in

person community service throughout NHC at approved worksites. Currently, the program has
19 worksites, including a partnership with Cape Fear Community College (CFCC) that enhances
the programs job skills development module and provides an expanded array of CFCC
resources for youth. The partnership is especially beneficial to older youth, including those
under expanded jurisdiction as a result of Raise the Age, as it offers opportunity for exposure to
adult high school, free certification courses, and assistance with navigating continuing education
in nontraditional settings. The program has also begun implementation of a mobile job skills
lab, through the purchase of 12 Chromebook and mobile printers, to serve youth in community
centers, public libraries, and other County WI-Fi equipped facilities.
The New Hanover County Juvenile Crime Prevention Council (JCPC) highly recommends that
the New Hanover County Youth Empowerment Services' Community Service and Restitution
Program continue to receive funding to enhance its existing programming which provides
services to youth on Level II probation.

CONSUMER DISCLOSURE
From time to time, NC Dept of Public Safety (we, us or Company) may be required by law to
provide to you certain written notices or disclosures. Described below are the terms and
conditions for providing to you such notices and disclosures electronically through the
DocuSign, Inc. (DocuSign) electronic signing system. Please read the information below
carefully and thoroughly, and if you can access this information electronically to your
satisfaction and agree to these terms and conditions, please confirm your agreement by clicking
the a€ -I agreea€TM button at the bottom of this document.
Getting paper copies
At any time, you may request from us a paper copy of any record provided or made available
electronically to you by us. You will have the ability to download and print documents we send
to you through the DocuSign system during and immediately after signing session and, if you
elect to create a DocuSign signer account, you may access them for a limited period of time
(usually 30 days) after such documents are first sent to you. After such time, if you wish for us to
send you paper copies of any such documents from our office to you, you will be charged a
$0.00 per -page fee. You may request delivery of such paper copies from us by following the
procedure described below.
Withdrawing your consent
If you decide to receive notices and disclosures from us electronically, you may at any time
change your mind and tell us that thereafter you want to receive required notices and disclosures
only in paper format. How you must inform us of your decision to receive future notices and
disclosure in paper format and withdraw your consent to receive notices and disclosures
electronically is described below.
Consequences of changing your mind
If you elect to receive required notices and disclosures only in paper format, it will slow the
speed at which we can complete certain steps in transactions with you and delivering services to
you because we will need first to send the required notices or disclosures to you in paper format,
and then wait until we receive back from you your acknowledgment of your receipt of such
paper notices or disclosures. To indicate to us that you are changing your mind, you must
withdraw your consent using the DocuSign a€ -Withdraw Consenta€TM form on the signing page
of a DocuSign envelope instead of signing it. This will indicate to us that you have withdrawn
your consent to receive required notices and disclosures electronically from us and you will no
longer be able to use the DocuSign system to receive required notices and consents electronically
from us or to sign electronically documents from us.
All notices and disclosures will be sent to you electronically
Unless you tell us otherwise in accordance with the procedures described herein, we will provide
electronically to you through the DocuSign system all required notices, disclosures,
authorizations, acknowledgements, and other documents that are required to be provided or
made available to you during the course of our relationship with you. To reduce the chance of
you inadvertently not receiving any notice or disclosure, we prefer to provide all of the required
notices and disclosures to you by the same method and to the same address that you have given
us. Thus, you can receive all the disclosures and notices electronically or in paper format through
the paper mail delivery system. If you do not agree with this process, please let us know as
described below. Please also see the paragraph immediately above that describes the
consequences of your electing not to receive delivery of the notices and disclosures
electronically from us.
How to contact NC Dept of Public Safety:
You may contact us to let us know of your changes as to how we may contact you electronically,
to request paper copies of certain information from us, and to withdraw your prior consent to
receive notices and disclosures electronically as follows:

the body of such request you must state: your previous e-mail address, your new e-mail address.
We do not require any other information from you to change your email address..
In addition, you must notify DocuSign, Inc. to arrange for your new email address to be reflected
in your DocuSign account by following the process for changing e-mail in the DocuSign system.
To request paper copies from NC Dept of Public Safety
To request delivery from us of paper copies of the notices and disclosures previously provided
by us to you electronically, you must send us an e-mail to david.pozun@ncdps.gov and in the
body of such request you must state your e-mail address, full name, US Postal address, and
telephone number. We will bill you for any fees at that time, if any.
To withdraw your consent with NC Dept of Public Safety
To inform us that you no longer want to receive future notices and disclosures in electronic
format you may:
i. decline to sign a document from within your DocuSign session, and on the subsequent
page, select the check -box indicating you wish to withdraw your consent, or you may;
ii. send us an e-mail to david.pozun@ncdps.gov and in the body of such request you must
state your e-mail, full name, US Postal Address, and telephone number. We do not need
any other information from you to withdraw consent.. The consequences of your
withdrawing consent for online documents will be that transactions may take a longer time
to process..
