notify the probation officer within 72 hours of becoming aware of a change or expected change.

permission of the probation officer.

10. You must not own, possess, or have access to a firearm, ammunition, destructive device, or dangerous weapon (i.e.,

such as nunchakus or tasers).
11. You must not act or make any agreement with a law enforcement agency to act as a confidential human source or informant

change in your economic circumstances that might affect your ability to pay any unpaid amount of restitution, fine, or special
