Pursuant to M.G.L. c. 6, § 178L(1)(a), the Board shall notify the sex offender of his or her right to submit documentary evidence relative to his or her duty to register, risk of reoffense, and degree of dangerousness posed to the public. Any documents submitted by the offender shall become part of his or her classification file. The offender shall submit any documentary evidence to the Board within 30 calendar days of receiving his or her notification.

(2) Extending the Time to Respond. Pursuant to M.G.L. c. 6, § 178L(1)(a), the Board may extend the timeframe for a sex offender to submit documentary evidence.
