On 12/06/2022 at 1:15 PM, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Kiriko Lynch made a case management inspection and met with facility representative. 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 fixtures tested above the allowable level (5.5 ppb) of lead in the water:

Little Redwoods Preschool –
Fixture “E” – children's drinking fountain, 18 ppb

The staff have made the fixture inaccessible by: Facility representative stated the drinking fountain is currently wrapped up in plastic and tape rendering it inaccessible and a "Do Not Use" sign is posted, and it has not been utilized by facility children since the beginning of March 2020. She stated they will be replacing the fixture and retesting, and will contact Licensing after doing so. Children in care are receiving drinking water from filtered water from the kitchen sink, and also the other drinking fountain which did not test above the lead allowable levels.

The following deficiency is being cited (see LIC 809D). A notice of site visit was given and must remain posted for 30 days. Failure to comply with posting requirements shall result in an immediate civil penalty of $100.

Exit interview conducted and report was reviewed with the facility representative Alicia Chivington.
