On 9/18/2024 at 10:30am, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Laura Chavez made a case management inspection and met with Licensee Kathryn Sheppard. 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 faucet tested above the allowable level (5.5 ppb or greater) of lead in the water:

Faucet “A” – kitchen sink, 55ppb

The licensee has made the faucet inaccessible by means of a sign taped to the kitchen sink stating " "Faucet Out of Order for Drinking & Cooking". The licensee replaced the water lines and faucet and the water has been retested. The kitchen sink is used for hand washing, washing of paint brushes only. Children in care are receiving bottled drinking w and water and drinking water from the drinking fountain located in the outdoor play area. All Parents and Guardians of children in care have been notified of the steps taken to correct the deficiencies.

The following deficiencies are being cited 101700.3(b)(2) and 101703, (see LIC 809D).

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.

An exit interview was conducted, and the report was reviewed with Licensee Kathryn Sheppard.
