Does an outdoor play area for child care center that is located on a former farm with agricultural use require a site investigation be conducted?
If as a result of the Preliminary Assessment, it has been determined that the Child Care center’s outdoor play area is located on a former farm with agricultural use, this would be considered a potential area of concern. A detailed description of the construction of the play area, including fencing locations, should be included to determine if any direct contact exposures exist. The potential of a direct contact threat would require soil sampling as part of a Site Investigation.
