General Comments

#30 Fill spout ~8.5" from ladder. ** Maximum distance is 6". Note: Only staff member present at the hotel during EHS pool inspection was front desk clerk. Clerk unable to locate keys to equipment room even after consulting with CPO over the phone. Therefore, EHS' inspection did not include equipment room or review of pool records which historically have been kept inside equipment room. EHS will check both upon return visit. ** Equipment room (& chemical room) keys should be kept readily available in case of an emergency where access is needed. An example would be the need to shut the pool circulation pump off to stop suction at pool main drains. ** IMMEDIATE SUSPENSION ISSUED for #2 & #15. Pool cannot be opened without written approval from the Mecklenburg County Health Department. Contact L. Boyes @ 704-507-6806.
