Sorry, we use different spelling dictionaries.

That is not how I interpret the language in the draft that has been
produced, so if it's what you're expecting I think it needs to be
clear.  I think your restated requirement is that the staff performing
the site vetting not only has checked for the relevant prohibitions
and designations, but also that the prohibitions and designations are
in fact enforced.  We do not have that language right now, in my
reading.

Best regards,
