Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Stephanie Piring and Office Technician (OT) Yvonne Flores met with Facility Representative, Simona Costa to conduct an unannounced case management inspection regarding lead testing. The purpose of today's inspection was to document a plan of correction following reports of lead exceedance in three of the facility outlets.

On 9/24/2024, the facility tested water samples for lead. Lead testing identified three water outlets that has a Lead Exceedance over the amount of 5.5 parts per billion (ppb). The water outlet designated as outlet D has an exceedance of 12 ppb, outlet G has an exceedance of 6.8 ppb, and outlet E has an exceedance of 6.5 ppb.


Facility Representative stated water outlets with lead exceedance were covered and placed out of order, the fixtures for outlets D and E were replaced, and they will have the outlet retested after they conclude flushing the outlets for three weeks. Outlet G was taken out and is no longer being used. Facility provides water in a pitcher to children while outside and inside the classroom.


A deficiency is cited on the subsequent page of the report and is considered a potential threat to the health and safety of children in care. An exit interview was conducted with the Simona Costa. LPA provided Facility Representative with Appeal Rights and a Notice of Site Visit that must be posted for 30 days.
