25 | On Monday March 21, 2022 at 12:30 pm LPAs L. Habtom and A. Blesi arrived at Little Methodist School for an unannounced case management visit. There were no children present during today's visit. LPAs met with director Sue Jas to address the lead level results in excedance of 5 parts per billion for all 9 water faucets and fountains tested. Water samples were taken on December 20, 2021 and results were provided to assigned analyst LPA L. Habtom on March 14, 2022. Director Sue stated prior to receiving the results the faucets and fountains were not being used. Director Sue explained that children bring their own labeled water bottles. Extra water bottles are kept at the center in the supply room. The centers operating hours is 9 am- 12 pm with one snack being provided. If any food has to be washed, the director rinses it at home or uses water bottles at the center. Sue is working to determine the results of the lead levels in order to get the water at the standard acceptable levels. Sue will keep LPA L. Habtom informed of the outcome, time frame and work needed in order to be in compliance with the lead levels. During today's visit, Sue made all water fountains inoperable by either shutting off the water supply or placing a bag over the fountain. Director was notified to only use water faucets at the center to wash hands and art supply until otherwise notified. |
