The Lassen County Recreational Waters Program is responsible for the enforcement of laws and regulations regarding public swimming pools, spas, wading pools and special purpose pools. We conduct routine and follow up inspections, investigate public complaints and review and approve public pool plans for compliance with state laws and regulations. The purpose of the program is to insure the safe and sanitary operation of public swimming facilities, as well as to prevent the possible transmission of disease and illness. By monitoring the quality of recreational waters, we can keep the public informed if these waters pose a threat to public health.
