LPA advised Coordinator, all water outlets tested with an ALE at the facility should be placed as out of service.

Per Coordinator, sample C drinking bubbler fountain in classroom 31 (PS1) has never been used. The facility uses filtered water with disposable cups. The outdoor playground bubbler has also never been used. Staff fill and provide water to preschool children through the filtered system with disposable cups for outdoor activities. Director has covered affected sinks and taped for inaccessibility to children present. Director has posted a sign at each water sink affected.

LPA toured the Elementary kitchen and observed the kitchen steam pot faucet off limits. Preschool children access food through the elementary cafeteria. The kitchen steam pot faucet has never been used. Food is prepared on the stove.

All affected faucets will be removed.

Once the repairs are made, Director will retest water for lead and notify LPA Tamayo of results after 3 weeks (21 day). Director is aware the lead levels shall not exceed 5.00 UG/L

Per Coordinator, the entire drinking bubbler fixtures will be removed.

An exit interview was conducted and a copy of this report was provided, along with a Notice of Site Visit and appeal rights to Coordinator Christy Depasquale.
