On 04/10/2023, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Suzette Ornelas arrived at UCLA DEPT. OF PSYCHOLOGY FERNALD INFANT DEV.PROG. to conduct an unannounced case management visit. LPA Ornelas was met by Assistant DIrector - Courtney Kumar. LPA informed Assistant Director about the purpose of the visit and was guided on a tour of the facility. LPA observed 16 children and 11 adults during today’s visit.

The facility has been identified to have 1 water outlet with an Action Level Exceedance (ALE) in the amount of lead in the water being 5.5 ppb, or greater. The purpose of today’s visit is to ensure that faucets are not in use and there is potable source of water for children and staff at the facility.

On 04/05/2023, LPA Ornelas contacted the facility; however, call went to voicemail and LPA was unable to obtain the following documents from director via email: External Water Sample Self-Certification Form (LIC 9275), Signed and dated Child Care Center Sampling Checklist Form (LIC 9276), and Facility Sketch (fully labeled with locations of all water outlets). LPA contacted LPA Denise Miranda who provided LPA Ornelas with copies of the required documents.

Per the retest report conducted on 2/14/2023, the following water outlet yielded the following results:

1.) Faucet G - Outdoor Play Area (Blue Room Yard - Adult Sink): 6.0 ppb

During today’s visit LPA Ornelas conducted a tour of the facility and observed 1 water outlet/outdoor adult sink that was made inaccessible by the use of red tape. Not used for food prep or consumption. LPA obtained photo of the water outlet that was identified on the facility sketch. Assistant Director stated that the children do not consume water from the water outlet. Per assistant director, purified Brita filtered drinking water is provided and accessible to children in care. LPA observed Brita filtered water in the classrooms.

Based on observation, interviews and supportive documents it has been determined that UCLA DEPT. OF PSYCHOLOGY FERNALD INFANT DEV.PROG violated Child Care Licensing Regulation Division 12, Chapter 1, Subchapter 5 101700.3 (b)(1) California Lead Action Level at Child Care Centers. A result with values of 5.5 ppb or greater shall be deemed an Action Level Exceedance.

Lead water testing sample re taken on 02/14/2023 revealed that levels of lead were beyond allowable amount deemed by the State of California.

LPA discussed Proof of Correction (POC). Assistant Director stated fixture has been replaced and retested; however, due to retest showing a lead exceedance once again, a Risk Assessment is taking to place to determine whether the fixture will be replaced or removed. Once a plan is set in place, LPA will be notified via email.

As mentioned earlier, Director submitted all required licensing forms, supportive documents and provided LPA with a Plan of Correction Date of 07/01/2023.
