25 | On 5/3/2023 at 11:10 a.m., Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Cindy Meier conducted an unannounced, case management inspection for the Action Level Exceedance (ALE) of lead detected in facility water fixtures. LPA met with Center Coordinator, Beth Reynolds. The purpose of the inspection was explained, and facility was toured. Present in facility was one (1) child, parent, and one (1) staff.

Per AB 2370, all CCCs 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.
LPA obtained copies of the External Water Sampler Self-Certification Form (LIC9275), Child Care Center Sampling Checklist (LIC9276), Facility Sketch (LIC999), on 2/9/2023.
