2. Administration acknowledged that the areas contained rust.Plan of Correction: Of the approximately 4.500 sq feet of indoor space which was inspected, two small areas of rust were located. Each was 3 1/4 inch in diameter, on a piece of toilet plumbing. Each piece was located behind a toilet, accessible to children but not very easily. Both of these cosmetic pieces were removed the day of inspection. The rust that was observed on the top rail of the chain link fence will be covered with anti rust paint this week.
