- Facility is working with Automated Aquatics to change out covers. Modifications to the pipe in the sump may be required to ensure new covers are compatible with the configuration. 2, SOFAs in deep end of the pool are 36 inches apart, interconnected - confirmed with engineered drawings. Pump Armstrong 4030/ 6 x 4 x 10 / 15 HP . Max flow using pump curve 825 gpm. Covers: Two, Waterway 12 x 12" Model 14-640-470V covers in place have expired Sept 2023. Max flow rating for the covers 356 gpm does not meet or exceed the max flow rating of the pump. Sumps: floor with side port. Pipe depth 4", pipe size either 4 or 6" diameter, sump width 6". Pipe size needs to be confirmed as this will play a role in determining proper cover replacement. Current Waterway covers are not compatible with the sumps which require a pipe depth of 1.5 x the pipe diameter which is either 4 or 6". Actions:1) New covers must be compatible with sump and their max flow rating must meet or exceed that of the max flow rating of the pump. Confirm pipe size in sump. 2) Any modifications to the sump, aside from increasing pipe depth by installing diverter (45/90-degree elbow) will require engineered drawings and approval from AHS prior to any work being completed. 3) determine max pump flow through the main drains for the system rather than using pump curve which is worst case scenario. An actual flow may be considerably less and could increase options for cover replacement. Facility is continuing to operate with main drains turned off during public swims and this is overseen by the facility manager. Providing the water chemistry, bacteriological quality and water clarity can be maintained, this plan is adequate in the short-term until the work to address anti-entrapment issues is corrected.

- Facility is working with pool supply company to change out covers.- One variable speed Armstrong 4030, 6 x 4 x 10, capacity 31.5 L/s. Frequency 12-16 = 52 Hz. Max flow rate determined by flow meter to be 525 gpm. - Submerged suction outlets x 2 in deep end of the pool. Greater than 26 inches apart. Outlets are interconnected according to anti-entrapment plan, but there is no confirmation of how this was done. There are original drawings available so these need to be checked. Two, Waterway 12 x 12" Model 14-640-470V covers EXPIRE SEPT 2023. VGB 2008 compliant. HOWEVER, Certificate of compliance, which is provided in anti-entrapment plan, has a max flow rating for a floor application as 356 gpm - this flow rating DOES NOT meet or exceed the max flow rating of the pump which is 525 gpm and creates a suction hazard. Actions:1) Confirm max flow rating for pump. Run at full capacity and take a photo of the flow meter to include in anti-entrapment plan. Flow today was measured to be 400 gpm. 2) Main drain covers need to be changed out as the current ones are expiring in Sept 2023. The maximum flow rating of new covers MUST meet or exceed 525 gpm as this is a worst-case scenario. If the pump is not being run at its maximum of 525 gpm you can have written procedures and a safety plan in place ie. lock out pump, have signage posted in mechanical room etc, do daily checks of pump to ensure it is not running at full capacity. New covers must fit existing sump frames OR get a retro fit cover that comes with a specific sump ring for the installation. These retrofit rings can screw into the existing sump frame. You must get approval by the health inspector prior to ordering/purchasing the new covers. 3) IMMEDIATELY turn off flow to main drains during the time the pool is open, have 100% of flow go through skimmers. Need process in place where manager turns off the main drains at the start of the day and fills in records to confirm this has been done.

- Sample take on December 27, was taken by a new staff member. Spoke with Kari, manager today and there has been no changes with the pool and water chemistry has been stable. FAC is being kept at 1.5 ppm, pH 7.2-7.3, alkalinity around 70 ppm. Pool is currently turning off main drains during public swims as the main drain covers need to be replaced. Facility is working with pool company out of Edmonton to help with anti-entrapment. Extra staff are on site to monitor pools when in use. Response protocols in place. Advised that FAC could be increased if they are experiencing high usage due to the holidays. Will resample as normal next week. Historically samples have been satisfactory, so the sample may have been inadvertently contaminated. Sample is taken from the same spot in the pool. There is a gutter style skimmer system in place - water movement throughout the basin is consistent, limiting dead spots. Manager will review sampling procedures with staff. Advised to shock chlorinate.
