- MARCH 20, Confirmation of Pool Volume at 1398 US Gallons. REPEAT VIOLATION- FIRST NOTED JUNE 2024. Filter must be replaced or additional filter added to ensure minimum flow rates and required turnover are met. Must be completed by April 30, 2025. or further enforcement action will be taken. The whirlpool originally was designed with a cartridge filter. However, this was replaced with a High Rate Sand Filter (1 Triton TR-100C Sand Filter) which does not have sufficient square footage to allow for the turnover and maximum rate of filtration to both be compliant.REQUIREMENT: Operator must replace this sand filter and install a new sand filter which has a minimum sufficient square footage (
