25 | On 3/29/23 at 9:25am, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Saraliz Velando, conducted an unannounced Case Management Inspection for reported Lead Exceedance. LPA met with Director, Sandra Marlor and the, Head of School, Stephanie McReynolds and toured the facility. Also present in the facility were 125 daycare children and 18 teachers/staff. Facility was within ratio & capacity. Staff members have the required Criminal record clearance and are associated to the facility. LPA interviewed staff, examined the faucet, and inspected the fixture deemed an Action Level Exceedance.
Fixture reported with 5.5 ppb or greater lead exceedance levels was as follows:
“G” Faucet located in Room A - 6.00 ppb (retested as fixture “A” on 2/22/23)
The Director reported that faucet "G" was replaced on 1/5/23 and retested on 2/22/23. The retest results were 7.00 ppb. The Director stated the new fixture will be replaced for the second time on 4/1/23. The Director stated the fixture has never been used for drinking or food prep, only for hand washing or rinsing off items. There is no food prep at the facility because children bring their meals from home.
The school provides filtered water to refill the children’s personal water bottles. An email has been sent out to parents regarding the testing and remediation on 3/29/2023. LPA observed that the water testing results are posted in the facility.
