Requirements at a glance
This regulation imposes 3 specific requirements for Incident Reporting across 1 provision:
- Annual report — Beginning 2027-07-01, file annual reports with the Office of the Attorney General (§ 6-63-2(b))
- Activation counts — Reports must include the number of safety protocol activations and related metrics (§ 6-63-2(b))
- Public aggregation — The Office of the Attorney General publishes aggregated data on its website (§ 6-63-2(b))
Annual Safety Protocol Reporting #
The statute fixes the reporting floor — activation counts — and leaves "related metrics" undefined, so the reportable set is whatever the Attorney General's office asks for; there is no rulemaking grant in the chapter to constrain that. Because the AG must publish aggregated data, the counts become a public dataset comparable across operators, which is the same disclosure dynamic as California's Office of Suicide Prevention reports.
