Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Nolan Tcheng conducted an unannounced case management inspection for an Action Level Exceedance (ALE) detected in a water fixture in the facility. Upon Arrival at 11am, LPA met with Director Cherry Gan, who guided LPA on a tour of the facility. There were children present during the time of the inspection.

Census was taken. LPA observed 31 children with 6 staff members.

LPA reviewed new Assembly Bill (AB) 2370, Chapter 676, Statutes of 2018, which requires the testing of water for lead in Child Care Centers (CCCs) with facility director during the inspection. Per AB 2370, all CCCs that are located in buildings constructed before January 1, 2010, must have their water tested and post the results by January 1, 2023, and every 5 years after the date of the first testing.

Facility provided facility sketch and required forms LIC 9276, LIC999 and LIC9275 to LPA during today’s inspection.

On 12/06/2022, the Department received notification from the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB), Division of Drinking Water (DDW). The SWRCB report indicated the facility was inspected and samples were collected on 12/06/2022. Faucets and drinking fountain reported with 5.5 ppb or greater lead exceedance levels were as follows:

  • C - Drinking Fountain Playground - Test results were 5.92ppb

Director states that children bring their own water bottles to the facility. They have a filtered water dispenser in the kitchen in order to provide for any bottles that are empty or if a child forgets to bring the water bottle. During the inspection, LPA observed that the water fountain has been completely removed from the wall and is completely inaccessible to children in care.
