On January 5, 2023, at 11:30 am., Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Denise Gibbs conducted an unannounced case management inspection and met with Ana Vidal, Principal. LPA disclosed the purpose of the inspection and was granted entry into the facility by office staff.

There were 60 children and 22 staff present during the inspection.

The purpose of today's inspection was to discuss the water lead test results. Results show that three water sources have action level exceedance (ALE) of lead. The drinking fountain in Room 4, three drinking fountains in the hallway near the main office and the sink faucet in the nurse's off (children do not have access) have a lead exceedance of 999 points per billion (ppb), 6.34 ppb, and 12.8 ppb.

At 11:30 a.m. LPA observed and tested all water sources with ALE. Water sources were observed to be turned off and inaccessible to children. Per Principal, water is made readily available to children via water bottles provided by the facility. LPA observed water bottles in the classroom and extra water bottles in storage. Lead results have been posted where they are accessible to parents. LAUSD Lead exceedance team has begun to correct the ALE by shutting off the water and is in the process of installing filters to the affected water sources. LAUSD facility maintenance has not given a date for corrections. A deficiency was cited to ensure that the water faucets with the exceedance will not be used as a drinking source or food preparation source for the children.

All meals are prepackaged and delivered daily by Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD). Food is not cook or prepared at the facility.

The deficiency listed on the following page was observed by the LPA and is being cited in accordance with -----------------PAGE 1
