25 | On 05/20/2022, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Katy Maestas met with Center Manager, Lashonda Bolling, for a Case Management inspection. The purpose of the inspection was to follow-up on a lead testing report dated 04/25/2022 which tested the water used for both consumption and hand washing in the facility. LPA toured the facility and 5 staff members were supervising 10 children. All adults were cleared and associated to the license in Guardian.
LPA was notified of the lead testing report on 04/25/2022 via email. The report revealed that one water outlet had elevated levels of lead. Center Manager Bolling reported that the faucet had been marked as "closed" and was inaccessible for use.
During today's inspection, LPA verified that the affected water outlet is not in use. The faucet was replaced on 04/26/2022. Bolling stated that she is currently flushing the faucet four times per day for four weeks. At which point, the water faucet will be re-tested for lead and reported to LPA.
As a result of the water testing positive for lead, a deficiency was cited on subsequent page 809D. An exit interview was conducted and the report was reviewed with Center Manager, Lashonda Bolling. Licensee Appeal Rights were provided. A notice of site visit was posted by LPA and must remain posted for 30 days. Failure to comply with posting requirements shall result in an immediate civil penalty of $100.
