Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), Mel Matos conducted an unannounced case management inspection to discuss the lead water testing and Action Level Exceedance (ALE) for seven water fixtures within the Facility. LPA met with Tiffany Brunnings, Executive Director, and explained purpose of today's inspection to her.

The initial lead testing was completed by Sol Environmental on October 23, 2022. An Action Exceedance Level (ALE) is a value of 5.5 parts per billion or greater. Seven water fixtures reported an ALE of 5.5 parts per billion or greater. Fixture "B" = 58, Fixture "G" = 6.8, Fixture "H" = 6.5, Fixture J = 5.8, Fixture M = 9.1, and Fixture "U" 11, and Fixture "X" = 21. Tiffany states that the water fixtures were immediately removed from service and replaced after the initial lead testing report.

Tiffany states that all seven water fixtures listed above were retested on February 11, 2023 and the ALE for the seven water fixtures was below 5.5 parts per billion. A copy of the lead testing report from Sol Environmental was provided to LPA via email prior to today's inspection.

The Self-Certification form (LIC 9275), Sampling Checklist form (LIC 9276) and updated Facility Sketch (LIC 999) was provided to LPA prior to today's inspection.

Exit interview conducted and report was reviewed with the Executive Director, Tiffany Brunnings. The following Type B deficiency is cited on the attached page (LIC 809-D). Copy of appeal rights was provided to Tiffany prior to the conclusion of today's inspection.

Notice of site visit was issued and must remain posted for 30 days.
