CHILD CARE CENTER NOT COMPLETED THE LEAD WATER TESTING ON TIME.
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).
According to Kelly, the facility got their water tested for lead on February 3, 2024. The facility is currently waiting for the certified water samplers to receive their results and for their results to be uploaded on the database. Per Kelly, the sampler told her it can take 2-3 weeks time to receive the results. LPA received hard copy of the LIC forms 9275, 9276 and 999 during the visit.
According to Kelly, the facility is using ProCare Application 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 February 13, 2024 and are done every month.
LPA reviewed the facility records. LPA reviewed 2 children's files during the visit such as some sleep logs and needs and services plan. LPA reviewed 4 staff files with qualifying requirements such as infant 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.
