LPA arrived at the Facility and was met by the Director, Stephanie Paige (D1). LPA disclosed the purpose of the inspection and was granted entrance into the Facility. LPA toured the facility and observed 48 children supervised by 8 staff members. LPA was notified of the water testing report on 04/19/24 via email and required documentation was attached. The testing revealed that 3 water outlets in classrooms, and 2 water outlets in the kitchen tested for elevated levels of lead. LPA observed that the 3 drinking water fountains in the affected classrooms have been removed and taped over, rendering them inaccessible for use. There are also displayed signs at the sinks that state "This faucet is for hand washing only, not for water or food preparation. Thank you". The 2 sinks in the kitchen have signage taped on the faucet stating "Please do not use".Children bring their own water bottles which are filled with a pitcher from a water source at the facility that is not effected by the lead exceedance. D1 states that some of the water outlets have been fixed but is waiting for the other outlets to be fixed before scheduling a retest. LPA explained that the water outlets must be retested and cleared before being used. D1 understands that the water report from the retest must be submitted to the Regional Office to remain in compliance. Assembly Bill (AB) 2370, Chapter 676, Statutes of 2018, requires all licensed Child Care Centers (CCCs) constructed before January 1, 2010, to test their water (used for drinking and food preparation) for lead contamination before January 1, 2023, and then every 5-years after the date of the first test. For child care center licenses issued after July 1, 2022, the licensee shall test their water for lead within 180 days of licensure pursuant to Written Directives section 101700 (PIN 21-21.1-CCP).
