General Comments

Inspection conducted with operator, Killian. Emergency phone not fully operating as intended - operator unable to fully hear communications unless yelled through box. EHS will return within 30 days to verify phone has been repaired and is able to properly communicate with 911 dispatch. Once corrected, call Hope McIntosh at 980-229-7549 to request a re-visit. Night swimming not approved. Note: Decking around pool continues to settle with cracking present. Repairs have been conducted, however, some decking offsets approaching 1/2 inch limit observed during inspection. Ensure no decking offsets are present that exceed 1/2 inch which could present trip hazards.
