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.

• Building, plumbing and upkeepLower risk

  Decks, ladders, fencing, drains, washrooms and signage must be in good repair. Damaged drain covers or broken fencing can be real safety hazards, while most other upkeep issues are lower risk.

  Recorded once on August 7, 2019. For example: The premises is operated and maintained free from every condition that may be a health hazard

• 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 once on August 14, 2018. For example: Sufficient waterfront emergency equipment provided

• 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 7, 2019. For example: Sufficient number of supervisors provided for the number of campers in the water
