It's ONLY a matter of time BIG announcements will be made in our area

NJ - Top lawmakers on Tuesday issued a sweeping call for accountability, including potential civil and criminal investigations as well as a class-action lawsuit, in response to allegations of fraud by the leading maker of artificial sports fields.

"The report that this company aggressively marketed a defective product, misled the schools and municipalities that purchased the turf and tried to conceal its actions and what it knew is extremely disturbing," Senate President Stephen Sweeney (D-Gloucester) said in a statement.

Sweeney added, "This is serious and it should be treated that way."

Except that Field Turf's Duraspine and Prestige XM turf are not installed in Fairfax, and were discontinued in 2012.

The article also notes that problems reported during the 8-year warranty period were quickly addressed. Fairfax is very good at holding manufacturers accountable when there is an issue.

Warranty claims also require the county to do routine maintenance on these fields which they have certainly failed to do.

Add in the fact that the newest fields have multiple sport lines stitched in plus complex school logos and we are looking at even more headaches moving forward.
