Fall zones are defined as the areas underneath and surrounding equipment that requires a resilient surface. 2. The center had approximately 2 to 4 inches of wooden mulch, decomposed mulch and dirt throughout the fall zones on the preschool ground. 3. The equipment required a minimum of 6 inches of resilient material underneath, around the slides and swings and in the fall zones.
Plan of Correction:
We will rake the mulch and add more.
