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.

  • 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 4 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on September 18, 2024. For example: All reporting requirements for adverse test results/adverse observations complied with

  • 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 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on September 18, 2024. For example: System is maintained in good repair, in a safe and sanitary condition and is checked/operated/calibrated at required frequencies and in accordance with requirements under Regulation 319/08 and manufacturers instructions

  • 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 9, 2023. For example: Primary disinfection equipment that does not use chlorination has a functioning audible alarm or a feature that ensures no water is directed to users if the equipment malfunctions/loses power or ceases to provide the appropriate level of disinfection
