Lead safety check·March 2, 2023

On 3/2/2023 @ 12:05 p.m., Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), Joelle Redding, made an unannounced visit to evaluate the facility for a reported lead exceedance. During this visit, it was clear that the information from the Water Board, the report from the lead testing agency and the facility map are not matching. The facility has made the sinks inaccessible that were identified to them as testing positive in Room 2B and 2C (which has been closed completely for several months). These sinks were used for handwashing. Alternate sinks have been provided. The facility has reported the discrepancy to the lead testing agency who will be coming out to redo the testing with a current facility map. The results will be reported to Licensing. Should the facility determine that any sink not formerly identified has tested positive, that sink will be made immediately inaccessible. See LIC 809D for Type B deficiency. Exit interview conducted and report was reviewed with Director. NOTICE OF SITE VISIT WAS GIVEN AND MUST REMAIN POSTED FOR 30 DAYS.
