Higher concern: Equipment or readiness
Report finding
The use zone for a stationary equipment was observed and the use zone for swings on the stationary equipment did not meet the required use zone as it did not extend twice the height of the vertical distance from the swing beam to the surface below as it required to be 16 feet and only measured 13 feet. **This was corrected at inspection when the swings were rolled and are no longer accessible to the children as they are out of reach.
