25 | On 06/27/2024, about 2:45PM, Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) T. Tran and A. Carter conducted an unannounced case management inspection at USC Head Start. Upon arrival, LPAs met with site supervisor, Patty Venegas and we toured the facility. Per site supervisor, no children at the center due to summer break.
The purpose of today's inspection was to go over the water lead test results received on 6/03/24. Results show that two water sources had action level exceedance of lead, located in the kitchen area with the lead result of 13 ppb. LPA observed that both sinks were covered with trash bags and tape pending for the faucets to be replaced and retested mid July. Facility will update LPA with the new result. A deficiency was cited to ensure that the water faucets noted would not be used as a drinking source or food preparation source for the children.
The deficiency listed on the following page were observed by the LPAs and is being cited in accordance with California Code of Regulations Title 22. Please see attached LIC 809-D. The deficiency that is being cited needs to be cleared to protect the children’s health & safety.
A notice of site visit was given and must remain posted for 30 days.
Exit interview conducted and report was reviewed with the facility representative, Patty Venegas.
