Observed one filter not operating. (c) The pump, automatic disinfectant equipment, or other equipment necessary for continuous filtration and disinfection of the swimming pool, spa, or recreational water park attraction is not working or is unable to maintain adequate turnover rate.EHS informed the PIC that if the pool was permitted with use of both filters then they both should be functioning properly.

Observed one pump not operating. (c) The pump, automatic disinfectant equipment, or other equipment necessary for continuous filtration and disinfection of the swimming pool, spa, or recreational water park attraction is not working or is unable to maintain adequate turnover rate.EHS informed the PIC that if the pool was permitted with both pumps then they both should be operating effectively.

Observed the flow meter not able to provide an accurate reading(stuck).(b) A flow meter measuring the rate of flow through the filter system with an appropriate range readable in gallons per minute (GPM) and accurate within ten percent actual flow shall be provided. The flow indicator shall be capable of measuring from one-half to at least one and one-half times the design flow rate. The gauge shall be located after the filtering equipment and in such location on the return line, so as to measure the total amount of water returning to the pool according to the manufacturer’s installation specifications. EHS informed the PIC of the to fix the flow meter.

Observed skimmer weirs missing and baskets needing to be cleaned. (d) Each skimmer shall have a weir that adjusts automatically to variations in water level over a minimum range of four inches. EHS informed the PIC of the need to attach the skimmer weirs.

Observed low alkalinity levels. EHS informed the PIC of the need to balance the water chemistry. Per maintenance, the water hasn't been balance since last week.

Observed entrance gate that doesn't self-latch ( facility uses entrance gate on the left side of the clubhouse). h) Access gates shall also comply with the requirements of this Rule and shall be equipped to accommodate a locking device. Barrier gates shall open away from the pool in facilities constructed after adoption of this chapter. Pedestrian access gates shall be self-closing and have a self-latching device. Gates other than pedestrian access gates shall have a self-latching device. Where the release mechanism of the self latching device is located less than fifty-four inches from the bottom of the gate, 1. The release mechanism shall be located on the pool side of the gate at least three inches below the top of the gate and 2. Any openings in the gate or barrier located within eighteen inches of the release mechanism shall be less than one-half inch. 3. Mechanisms controlled by an access card reader, key entry device or keypad shall be located on the outside of the access gate. EHS informed PIC and CPO of the need to ensure the gate self-closes and self-latches.

When standing at a spa's edge, the deepest portion of the spa floor shall be visible when the water is still. 1. For pools over ten feet deep an eight inch by eight inch square marker tile in a contrasting color to the pool floor shall be visible at all deepest part of the pool. 2. This reference point shall be visible at tall times from the edge of the deck.times from the edge of the deck. EHS informed the PIC and CPO of the need to ensure the water isn't cloudy. Pool became cloudy before arrival as facility was cleaning the pool walls.

Observed low chlorine levels. (c) Free Chlorine level in pools using cyanuric acid or a stabilized chlorine product; Minimum 2.0 Ideal 2.0-5.0 Maximum 10.0. EHS informed PIC of the need to balance the water chemistry.

Observed high combined chlorine levels. (1) Disinfectant Levels (a) Free chlorine, ppm in pools not using cyanuric acid or a stabilized chlorine compound use (b),1.-5. EHS informed PIC and CPO of the need balance the water chemistry.

Observed flow meter exceeding parameters/not providing numerical value. b) A flow meter measuring the rate of flow through the filter system with an appropriate range readable in gallons per minute (GPM) and accurate within ten percent actual flow shall be provided. The flow indicator shall be capable of measuring from one-half to at least one and one-half times the design flow rate. The gauge shall be located after the filtering equipment and in such location on the return line, so as to measure the total amount of water returning to the pool according to the manufacturer’s installation specifications. EHS informed PIC and CPO of the need to purchase a new flow meter and to ensure the meter is reading accurately. It should be reading above 80gpm depending on the year the pool was built.

Observed skimmer baskets needing to be cleaned. EHS informed the PIC and CPO of the need to clean the skimmer baskets.
