Observed low alkalinity levels. EHS informed PIC of the need for the CPO to balance the water chemistry.

Observed cyanuric acid level at 91. (4) Stabilizer (if used) Cyanuric acid,ppm Ideal: 30-50 Maximum: 90 Comments: If stabilizer is: Too High: - May reduce chlorine efficacy Too Low: - Chlorine Residual rapidly destroyed by sunlight Note: Stabilizer is not needed in indoor or brominated pools and spas.EHS informed PIC to notify the pool servicing company.

Observed free chlorine levels were too high and EHS was unable to obtain a reading. c) Free Chlorine level in pools using cyanuric acid or a stabilized chlorine product; Minimum 2.0 Ideal 2.0-5.0 Maximum 10.0. Supervisor tested chemistry and obtained the same result; will reach out to pool servicing company.

EHS observed PH levels at 8.0. (2) Chemical Values: pH 7.2 7.4-7.6 7.8 Alkalinity (buffering), 60 ppm; 80-100 halogens compounds with high pH 180 ppm as CaC03 100-120 halogen compounds with low pH Calcium hardness, ppm, CaCo3 150 200-400 to balance water 1000. EHS informed PIC; PIC is to speak with pool servicing company.

EHS was unable to obtain a combined chlorine reading as the free chorine levels were too high. (1) Disinfectant Levels (a) Free chlorine, ppm in pools not using cyanuric acid or a stabilized chlorine compound use. EHS informed the supervisor of the need to adjust chlorine levels.

Observed no record keeping of water testing. (11) If the water test results are not in compliance with DPH Rule 511-3-5-.17, the operator shall close the pool, record findings, and make the necessary adjustments to the water chemistry to comply with the chapter. The chemicals used and amounts shall be recorded on the operator log. EHS informed the supervisor of the need to keep water testing records available.
