DECISION ORDER
Contrary to the defendant's contention, in determining his risk level under the Sex Offender Registration Act ( see Correction Law article 6-C), the Supreme Court properly assessed points under risk factor 11, pertaining to "[d]rug or [a]lcohol [a]buse," based upon his admission that he was using alcohol at the time of the offense (Sex Offender Registration Act: Risk Assessment Guidelines and Commentary, at 15 [2006 ed.]; see People v Sterling , 71 AD3d 654 ; People v Britt , 66 AD3d 853 ; People v Carpenter , 60 AD3d 833 ). Accordingly, the defendant was properly designated a level two sex offender.
MASTRO, J.P., FLORIO, ENG and SGROI, JJ., concur.
