Forest Service Building Playground with ‘Safety Circles,’ ‘Fall Zones’

[Geee]

Free Beacon:

The U.S. Forest Service is building a new playground for a national campground in Tennessee with “safety circles” and “fall zones.”

 

The new playground will not have any merry-go-rounds or monkey bars, but will be made of 99.9 percent recycled materials and have an Americans with Disabilities Act “transfer station.”

 

The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), which oversees the Forest Service, updated a solicitation for the equipment Wednesday. The playground equipment is for Piney Campground in Dover, Tenn.

 

“All equipment, including spacing for appropriate standard safety circles and fall zones, shall not exceed the 77’ x 77’ rectangular site boundary available,” according to the scope of work for the project.
