Violations:
A summary of the violations found during the inspection are listed below.
| Code | Description / Observation / Corrective Action |
| 101 | Improper Water Chemistry/Water Clarity Observation: Detected free available chlorine in water is 2.8 parts per million. It does not meet requirements of pool regulation. Corrective Action: Corrected during inspection. Added chlorine disinfectant manually to circulation system to ensure sufficient free available chlorine. Ensure that pool water chemistry parameters are regularly monitored at least 2 times a day - or once a week for alkalinity - to ensure chemistry compliance. |
| 101 | Critical Improper Water Chemistry/Water Clarity Observation: Detected pH of pool water is below 7.0 which does not meet BC pool regulation section 10 requirements. Corrected during inspection. And sure pH is between 7.2 and 7.8 at all times. Corrective Action: Staff added chemical to system so that final pH reached at least 7.2 |
| 104 | Improper Turnover of Flow Rate Observation: Measured flow rate 46.0 gallons per minute is above design flow rate 39.25 gallons per minute at time of inspection Corrective Action: Please adjust flow rate so that it is similar to design flow rate by March 27th, 2017. Please monitor flow rate regularly and adjust as needed. |
| 307 | Improper Storage of Chemicals Observation: Overall chemicals are stored in a safe manner. Thank you. However sodium bisulfate storage beside hypochlorite which is incompatible storage. Corrective Action: Corrected during inspection. Operator transferred bisulfate to another room. Please continue to ensure chemicals are stored in a safe manner. Follow instructions on the packaging. |
| 401 | Note Violation Observation: Detected temperature of hot water from sink tap is 52.0 °C Corrective Action: Please maintain hot water and facility below 49 degrees Celsius. Correct by March 27th, 2017. Ensure water temperature from Taps and shower heads are merely maintained and monitored as part of Maintenance procedures. |
