25 | Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), Cortney Nelson, met with Site Supervisor, Maria Rosa Hernandez, and explained purpose of today's visit- to follow-up on water lead testing conducted for the facility. Upon arrival, LPA toured the facility and requested Maria identify the faucet with Action Level Exceedance (ALE)- a value of 5.5 parts per billion or greater.
Water lead testing was conducted on 12/14/2022 and indicated that faucet "A" (a drinking fountain located in the preschool classroom) had an ALE of 6.0. The faucet has been fully replaced and is currently being flushed until it can be retested for lead. Additionally, the faucet is covered with a bag and has been made inaccessible to children.
