   32. Outdoor Equipment CCF Handbook, Section 3.12 (32-07)

   The ground cover or other protective surface under the [rock climbing wall equipment] was not maintained. CCF Handbook, Section 3.12, D Sanitation and Equipment [SR] Comments: At the time of the inspection, the fall zone material under the rock climbing wall in the outdoor play area was observed to not have been properly maintained. There was less than six inches of fall zone material present under the rock climbing equipment. Technical assistance was provided advising the provider that permanent or stationary playground equipment must have a fall/use zone that extends a minimum of 6 feet in all directions from the perimeter of the equipment. All types of ground cover must be maintained to provide resilience and reduce the incidence of injuries to children in the event of falls. 1) If the ground cover in place is loose ground cover (such as but not limited to; mulch, shredded rubber chips, or sand) a minimum of 6 inches in depth is required in the use zone. Asphalt, concrete, hard packed dirt, hay, grass, or leaves are unsuitable for use in the use zone area. 2) If the ground cover in place is a unitary playground surface, then the unitary surfacing materials must be installed, maintained, or replaced according to manufacturers instructions. Unitary surfaces must be tested to and comply with ASTM F1292; documentation of test data must be retained at the facility and available for licensing to review. 3) If the play area was approved by the Department prior to January 1, 2020, and does not meet the 6-foot fall/use zone requirement, then the facility must submit a written notification, including photographs and layout of the play area, to the Department prior to or on April 1, 2020, notifying its intention to continue to operate using the prior approved play area. However, if the permanent or stationary playground equipment is moved or replaced then the standard would apply, and 6 feet of use zone must be provided. Any new equipment added would be required to have the 6 feet of use zone in all directions from the perimeter of the equipment TRAINING Due: 2/23/2026 Source: FL DCF CARES inspection 2026-01-21.
