A COVID-19 prequestionaire was conducted prior to entry. LPAs met with Irene Guereca, Director and Leisha Dearing Asst. Director, who was explained the reason for today’s visit. LPAs observed 12 children and four staff.

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.

Assembly Bill (AB) 2370, Chapter 676, Statutes of 2018 requires all licensed Child Care Centers (CCC’s) constructed before January 1,2010 to test their drinking water for lead contamination between January 1, 2020 and January 1, 2023, and then every five years after the date of the first test.

Community Care Licensing was notified that lead water testing conducted at the facility on 08/03/2022 failed allowable limit for lead. The Purpose of today’s visit is to follow up lead testing results of Action Level Exceedences (ALE).

Instructions for required lead testing are outlined in PIN 21-21-CCP. This PIN which contains Written Directives, have the same force and effects as the regulations contained in Title 22 of the California Code of Regulations.

Facility staff was advised on 08/22/2022 that the Lead Sample Report was to be posted. LPAs observed the facility had posted the Lead Sample Report.
