Public swimming pools and spas are regulated by the ICEHSD. Facilities are issued annual permits and are inspected twice a year. Bacteriological monitoring of flow through pools and spas is conducted regularly. State regulations for the construction and operation of public swimming pools, as well as recent anti-entrapment legislation, may be accessed via the link below.
The proper maintenance and operation of pools and spas is essential in order to ensure the safety of swimmers. The link below, courtesy of the San Diego County Department of Environmental Health, provides a helpful guide for pool operators.
