“Based on observation, measurements and interviews with staff, the center failed to ensure that where playground equipment is provided, resilient surfacing shall comply with minimum safety standards described in the American Society for Testing Materials and shall be under equipment with moving parts or climbing apparatus to create a fall zone free of hazardous obstacles. Evidence: 1. The height of the slide on the plastic jeep play structure was measured at approximately 1 foot 9 inches, which requires a 5 foot 9 inch fall zone for the slide trajectory. There was approximately 3 foot 10 inches of resilient surfacing, creating the fall zone for the slide trajectory. 2. There was approximately a 4 foot 3 inch fall zone on the side closest to the fence of the dome climbing structure. A 6 foot fall zone is required.”

“Based on observation, measurements and discussion with staff, the center failed to ensure that where playground equipment is provided, resilient surfacing shall comply with minimum safety standards described in the American Society for Testing and Materials and shall be under equipment with moving parts or climbing apparatus to create a fall zone free of hazardous obstacles. Evidence: 1. The height of the slide on the plastic jeep play structure measured 1 foot 11 inches high, which requires a 5 foot 11 inch fall zone for the slide trajectory. There was only 3 feet of resilient surfacing, creating the fall zone, for the slide trajectory. The fall zone for the slide did not comply with the minimum safety standards described in the American Society for Testing and Materials. 2. There was only a 4 foot 4 inch fall zone on the side closest to the fence of the dome climbing structure. The fall zone for the dome climbing structure did not comply with the minimum safety standards described in the American Society for Testing and Materials.”
