(b) The fact that the siblings share a bedroom is not, in and of itself, negligent treatment or maltreatment.

(c) Poverty, homelessness, or exposure to domestic violence perpetuated against someone other than the child does not, in and of itself, constitute negligent treatment or maltreatment.

(d) A child does not have to suffer actual damage or physical or emotional harm to be in circumstances that create a clear and present danger to the child's health, welfare, or safety.

(e) Negligent treatment or maltreatment may include, but is not limited to one or more of the following:

(i) Failure to provide adequate food, shelter, clothing, supervision, or health care necessary for a child's health, welfare, or safety, such that the failure shows a serious disregard of the consequence to the child and creates a clear and present danger to the child's health, welfare, or safety;

(ii) Actions, failures to act, or omissions that result in injury or risk of injury to the physical, emotional, and/or cognitive development of a child, such that it shows a serious disregard of the consequences to the child and creates a clear and present danger to the child's health, welfare, or safety;

(iv) The effects of chronic failure on the part of a parent or guardian to perform basic parental functions, obligations, or duties that causes injury or substantial risk of injury to the physical, emotional, or cognitive development of the child, such that it shows a serious disregard of the consequences to the child and creates a clear and present danger to the child's health, welfare, or safety.

(1) A Parent or guardian abandons a child when the parent or guardian is responsible for the care, education, or support of a child and:

(a) Deserts the child in any manner whatever with the intent to abandon the child;

(b) Leaves a child without the means or ability to obtain one or more of the basic necessities of life such as food, water, shelter, clothing, hygiene, and medically necessary health care; or

(c) Forgoes for an extended period of time parental rights, functions, duties and obligations despite an ability to exercise such rights, duties, and obligations.

(2) Abandonment of a child by a parent may be established by conduct on the part of a parent or guardian that demonstrates a substantial lack of regard for the rights, duties, and obligations of the parent or guardian or for the health, welfare, and safety of the child. Criminal activity or incarceration of a parent or guardian does not constitute abandonment in and of themselves, but a pattern of criminal activity or repeated or long-term incarceration may constitute abandonment of a child.

The notice of the CPS management review decision will also contain information regarding how to request a hearing.

(1) The ALJ must give special consideration to any request by a party for the alleged abused or neglected child to testify in order to protect the physical and emotional well being of the child. For the protection of the child, the ALJ must determine:

(a) If compelling reasons exist to have the child testify. If compelling reasons do exist, the ALJ must consider alternative methods to in-person testimony by the child. Such methods may include, but are not limited to, having the child testify by telephone or videotape; or

(b) If the rights of a party (either the appellant or DSHS) would be prejudiced by not having the child testify in person. If a party's rights would be prejudiced, the ALJ must consider other methods to hear the child's testimony without having the child directly confront the alleged perpetrator.

(2) If the child does testify at the hearing, the ALJ must include a written finding in the administrative hearing decision regarding the compelling reasons for the child's testimony and what alternative methods to in-person testimony the ALJ considered.

In any administrative hearing regarding a founded CPS finding, an ALJ may not rule upon the department's decisions regarding the following:

(1) The ALJ must decide if a preponderance of the evidence in the hearing record supports a determination that the alleged perpetrator committed an act of abuse or neglect of a child.

(2) If the ALJ determines that a preponderance of the evidence in the hearing record supports the founded CPS finding, the ALJ must uphold the finding.

(3) If the ALJ determines that the founded CPS finding is not supported by a preponderance of the evidence in the hearing record, the ALJ must remand the matter to the department for a change of the finding consistent with the ruling of the ALJ.

After the administrative hearing, the ALJ will send a written decision to the appellant and the department.

If the department challenges the ALJ's decision, the department will not change the finding in the department's records and the finding will remain in effect pending the final decision from the department's challenge. If the department does not challenge the ALJ's decision, the department will correct the finding in the department's records consistent with the ALJ's decision.
