The Environmental Health Division staff
checks the water quality in each indoors public pool in La Crosse County at
least once per month. The concentration of the disinfectant, the pH of the
water, and the water temperature are measured. A water sample is collected from
each pool to be analyzed for several types of bacteria. Each pool operator is
responsible for maintaining the pool and its surroundings in a safe manner.
