On 1/9/2024, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Hanson Leong made an unannounced case management visit to the child care center listed above. The purpose of today's visit is to conduct an inspection of the Action Level Exceedance (ALE) of lead in the water at the Child Care Center. The LPA was granted entry by the Director, Amanda Mosher. Ms. Mosher was informed of the reason for today's visit by the LPA. Present in the center includes four staff members, 19 preschool-aged children and 2 toddlers. All individuals listed on the center's roster were authorized to work or be present in the child care center. The center was operating within its capacity and in accordance with the required staff-to-children ratio.

LPA discussed with the director regarding the new Assembly Bill (AB) 2370, Chapter 676, Statutes of 2018, which requires the Lead Testing of water in the Child Care Center. All Child Care Centers that are located in buildings constructed before January 1, 2010, must have their water tested and post the results by January 1, 2023, and every 5 years after the date of the first testing.

The Vendor's ALE report for the center was received on 11/19/2023. The test results indicate that the center's parts per billion (ppb) exceeded the acceptable limit of 5.5 ppb. In response to this finding, the center took proactive measures by hiring a licensed plumber to replace the fixture. According to the director, fixture B with a 12 ppb has been replaced. According to the director, she is coordinating with the Lead Water vendor to return to the center and retest the water again. The LPA observed the director contacting the Lead Water vendor and mentioned that they were waiting for the results to be uploaded into their system. The center has relied on alternative water sources, such as bottled water, to prepare and consume food during this period.

Please refer to LIC 809D for today’s citation.

A copy of today’s report and the center’s appeal rights were given to Amanda Mosher. A Notice of Site Visit was given to Amanda Mosher and must remain posted on, or immediately adjacent to, the interior side of the main door for 30 days. Exit interview conducted and report was reviewed with Amanda Mosher.
