25 | On 12/19/2023 at 12:22 PM, Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Catherine Fernandes and Janai McClain conducted an unannounced case management inspection regarding a lead exceedance at the facility. LPAs met with the Director Miesha Lampkins and explained the purpose of today's inspection. Present in care were seven preschoolers and two additional staff members.
The facility tested its drinking water for lead contamination on 08/8/2023 and B1 (the backyard hose) has exceeded the acceptable amount of lead allowed at a childcare facility with a result of 14.0ppb. The licensee failed to maintain a lead value at or below the Action Level for water lead testing resulting with values of 5.5ppb or greater for water sources B1.
Water testing results identified with Action Level Exceedance as defined in WD section 101700.3 are not deemed safe to drink (See 809D for deficiency being cited today). The C1 sink in primary two classroom has been turned off from the water supply and the senor for the sink is covered and stated it is not being used. E1 is outside and connected to a hose and the portable hand washing sink, the sink is unplugged from the water outlet. The director has provided the required documents to the LPAs while at the center.
