Based on observations and measurements, the center did not ensure that playground equipment had resilient surfacing that complies with the minimum safety standards when tested in accordance with the procedures described in the American Society for Testing and Materials. Evidence: 1. The slides and climbing equipment located on the center?s playground did not have enough resilient surfacing throughout the fall zones. 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 in the fall zones.
Plan of Correction:
I will get mulch ordered ASAP.
