Public swimming pool and spa inspections
Southeast Public Health Inspectors carry out routine inspections of public swimming pools, spas, wading pools, and splash pads to ensure they meet the standards required by the Ontario Regulation 565/90 (Public Pools) and are operated in a safe and sanitary manner. Recreational water facility inspection reports are posted on our website.
