Where playground equipment is provided, resilient surfacing shall comply with minimum safety standards and shall be under equipment with moving parts or climbing apparatus to create a fall zone free of hazardous obstacles. Fall zones are defined as the area underneath and surrounding equipment that requires a resilient surface. A fall zone shall encompass sufficient area to include the child's trajectory in the event of a fall while the equipment is in use. The depth of mulch at the end of two slides chutes measured approximately three inches deep. The height of the slides were over three feet tall. The required depth of mulch is at least six inches. The slides were located on Playground #1.
Plan of Correction: The playground mulch had already been scheduled for a July 2025 delivery. We will re-distribute the mulch to ensure the adequate depth is in the fall zones.
