Violations

1
Standard 8VAC20-780-330-B
Where playground equipment is provided, resilient surfacing shall comply with minimum safety standards.
The mulch around the large playground equipment on the preschool playground measured five inches in depth in several areas and did not meet the required six inches of depth.
Plan of Correction: It rained a good amount the previous week, which cause the mulch to be compacted. As the mulch dries out, we will rake it to fluff it up from the current 5 inches to the required 6 inches.
