On 04/25/2024, at 10:15 AM, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Kruz Long conducted an unannounced case management inspection for the purpose of delivering the revised report for a Required - 3 years inspection conducted on 03/05/2024 and for an Action Level Exceedance (ALE) detected in a water fixture in the facility. LPA met with facility Terrie Mejia, Site Director during the visit. A COVID 19 risk assessment was conducted prior to entering the facility. Portable #1 contained 3 staff/10 children, Portable #2 contained 2 staff/7 children, and Portable #3 contained 3 staff/14 children. Facility was within ratio & capacity.

Analyst 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 Lead Teacher 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 the test test report, facility sketch and required forms LIC 9276, LIC 999 and LIC 9275 to LPA on 03/04/2024.

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 08/19/2023. Faucets and drinking fountain reported with 5.5 ppb or greater lead exceedance levels were as follows:

· Drinking Fountain- E (6 UG/L) – LPA observed drinking fountain was removed and capped - picture was taken.

Per staff, the facility does not use Drinking Fountain E which was removed and capped. Drinking water comes from the faucet which did not test for lead exceedance.
