On 4/27/23 at 12:21 PM, Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Pearl DiGenova and Jaime Snow made a case management inspection and met with Pamela Lee. 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 faucets tested above the allowable level (5.5 ppb or greater) of lead in the water:

Faucet “D” – Room 1: kids drinking fountain, 140 ppb
Faucet “H” – Room 1: fountain by the refrigerator, 7.4 ppb

The licensee has made the faucets inaccessible by shutting off the water. The licensee plans to replace and retest the faucets. Children in care are receiving drinking water from store bought water bottles.

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 director Pamela Lee.
