What these findings mean
Health authorities word their findings differently, so we group them by what they mean for the people using the facility. Higher-risk findings are the ones that could directly cause illness or injury, such as water that is not properly treated.
Equipment and utensilsLower risk
Pumps, filters, chemical feeders and safety equipment such as lifebuoys, reaching poles and first-aid kits must be present and working. Missing safety equipment can matter a great deal in an emergency.
Recorded 2 times on August 14, 2026. For example:
Continuous monitoring equipment is operated and maintained in accordance with manufacturer instructions.
Permits, records and postingLower risk
Operating permits, water-test logs, posted bather rules and emergency procedures. Daily test logs are how operators show the water was checked and treated between inspections.
Recorded once on August 14, 2026. For example:
Operator of the system is trained in drinking water system operation, maintenance, safety and emergency procedures.
Other findingsLower risk
Findings that do not fit the categories above, such as follow-ups that confirm an earlier violation was corrected, or requirements specific to this type of facility.
Recorded once on August 14, 2026. For example:
Drinking water system that requires treatment is operational and properly maintained.
