25 | On 12/21/22 Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Monica Mathur and Christina Watts met with Director, Jayne Martin to conduct a Case Management inspection for the Lead Testing results at Center.
LPA conducted an inspection and toured the premises with Director. Facility had reported lead exceedence on their Infant license # 070213379 located in the same premises. However, during inspection of both infant and preschool premises, it was determined the drinking water fountain that had lead exceedence was located in the outdoor playground on the preschool premises. Infant program does not have any exceedence. Director states children used the fountain for drinking water until March 2020, but closed it off when COVID started. Since children used the faucet for drinking water while there was lead exceedence, it posed a potential risk to health and safety of children in care.
Deficiency is cited from the California Code of Regulations, Title 22 (see 809D). LPAs observed the outlet has been permanently removed. Deficiency was cleared during the inspection and Letter of Clearance provided. Facility has submitted documentation for the post-testing requirements.
Exit interview conducted and report was reviewed with the Director, Jayne Martin. A Notice of Site Visit was given and must remain posted for 30 days
