Due to severe winter storms with high wind and flooding the Department has approved a virtual inspection. D1 agreed to conduct the visit using FaceTime with LPA for the Tele-Inspection. The inspection was made in response to water lead testing results received from the California State Water Resource Control Board. The test results showed that the following water faucets tested above the allowable level 5.0 parts per billion (ppb) of lead in the water: Sample Site, "B" a sink faucet in room #12 with a reading of 8.7 ppb, Sample Site “C” a drinking fountain in room #12 had a reading of 55 ppb and Sample Site “D” a drinking fountain in room #11 had a reading of 39 ppb. All other sources of water tested (Sample Site “A”) below the allowable level of 5.0 ppb. LPA Strother received an email from Kristin Hills (A1), Director of Early Learning and Care, Educational Services for Mendocino County Office of Education on 01/03/22 stating that the facility has discontinued use of faucets “B”, “C” and “D” and have begun to notify families of the testing results. LPA obtained the following documents from A1 via email on 01/03/22; External Water Sampling Self-Certification Form (LIC 9275), Child Care Center Sampling Checklist Form (LIC 9276) and Facility Sketch/Floor Plan (LIC 999), a copy of the lab report, and a copy of the letter given to parents or authorized representatives of children in care, dated 01/03/22 and photos identifying all water outlets labeled and corresponding to the Facility Sketch (LIC 999). On 01/04/22 LPA Strother emailed a copy of the lead report from the California State Water Resource Control Board to A1. During today’s tele-visit, LPA verified that the test results were posted and that Sample sites “B”, “C” and “D” were made inaccessible to children in care by way of plastic bag covers with sign stating "Do Not Use". D1 stated that children in care are receiving drinking water from individual water bottles from home that staff can refill from store bought bottled water provided by the school district. D1 stated if a child forgets their water bottles a disposable cup with the bottled water is provided.
