What Happened
This follow-up lead-testing visit confirmed one faucet/outlet exceeded the action level and had already been made inaccessible. The facility had blocked off the fountain, posted or delivered the correction materials, and was using filtered classroom water and refillable bottles instead.
Observations
- Water outlet/faucet j exceeded the lead action level.
- The outlet was taped off and the water fountain was blocked off to keep children from accessing it.
