Licensing Program Analysts(LPAs) Lilia Hernandez and Roberto Luque Avila conducted an unannounced case management inspection on 09/06/2024 for the purpose of addressing an Action Lead Exceedance (ALE) at the facility.

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 of the Lead Water Testing results conducted at the facility on 12/02/2022. The sample testing was for Outlets "A" with results above 5.5 ppb which is considered an exceedance. Outlet "A" was reported to have an exceedance of 113 ppb. LPA was not able to verify which outlets were tested because a facility sketch was not provided to the Department prior or during the inspection. Per Principal, documents were not available at the facility for LPA to obtain copies. Principal stated that they may or may not have received the documents for the lead water testing.

Documents pending are as followed:
  • Completed External Water Sampler Self-Certification Form (LIC 9275)
  • Completed Child Care Center Sampling Checklist Form (LIC 9276)
  • Facility Sketch identifying the location of water outlet/s used for drinking
  • A copy of the initial water testing results for outlets tested
  • Proof of corrections for Outlet "A"
  • A copy of water retesting results summary for Outlets "A"
