Recreational Health Program

The purpose of this program is to assure that all public recreational waters, swimming pools and spas are free of safety hazards, disease and life threatening occurrences. This is accomplished by enforcement of laws and regulations relating to the design, construction and maintenance of pool facilities. Routine inspections are performed at public swimming pools, spas and natural bathing areas in the county. The EHD reviews and approves plans for proposed public swimming pools, spas and water parks and conducts construction inspections.
