Details the construction process, indicating that "the first part of any construction job is to install a construction entrance/exit" and providing a description of its construction. Provides information regarding the presence of lead, explaining that a small amount was found in the fibers but air testing results showed that there was no lead in the air. Describes the quality and appearance of the new carpet, indicating that "the new carpet had permanent lines for all sports that originated from the factory." |
