Violations

Standard 8VAC20-780-330-B
Based on observations made, it was determined that there was insufficient resilient surfacing under playground equipment and in fall zones. Evidence: The wood mulch was nearly depleted and in some areas the mulch was scattered and the dirt/sand mix underneath was exposed.
Plan of Correction: The Director reported that the wood mulch will be replenished before the summer program begins. Efforts to rake existing mulch into the fall zones will continue until new mulch is delivered.
