CCC COMPLETED SAMPLING BUT THE TEST RESULTS ARE NOT YET AVAILABLE:
Assembly Bill (AB) 2370, Chapter 676, Statutes of 2018, requires all licensed Child Care Centers (CCCs) constructed before January 1, 2010, to test their water (used for drinking and food preparation) for lead contamination before January 1, 2023, and then every 5-years after the date of the first test.
For child care center licenses issued after July 1, 2022, the licensee shall test their water for lead within 180 days of licensure pursuant to Written Directives section 101700 (PIN 21-21.1-CCP).
LPA requested all licensing forms associated with the lead water testing. Director provided LPA the hard copy of the report from the laboratory. LPA also informed the director to request the laboratory to upload the results into the lead water testing database to verify the results. LPA observed that courtesy results show no lead exceedances in the water.
According to Julie, the facility is using paper for sign in/out. Facility has license and all other required documents posted and visible for the public. Facility has an emergency drill log and last drill was conducted on November 29, 2023. Per staff, drills are done at least every 3 months rotating them between fire and earthquake drills and lock down drills, led by the school district.
LPA reviewed the facility records. LPA reviewed 3 TK children's files during the visit. LPA reviewed 3 staff files with qualifying requirements such as ECE Units, CPR and Mandated Reporter Training.
The Director was reminded that all adults 18 and over, including employees and volunteers, must obtain a criminal record clearance or exemption or transfer their existing clearance or exemption prior to initial presence in a Child Care Center.
A civil penalty of $100.00 minimum/day up to $500.00 maximum per day/per person will be assessed if this regulation is violated.
Facility was informed that as of September 1, 2016, a person may not be employed or volunteer at a childcare facility unless he or she has been immunized against influenza, pertussis, and measles or qualifies for an exemption pursuant to Health and Safety code 1596.7995 and 1597.662.
