First step of fecal accident procedure - correct answer.Direct all bathers to leave the
pool. All affected waters must be closed to swimming until proper procedures for
contamination have been completed
Second step of fecal accident procedure - correct answer.Manually remove as much of
the material as possible using a net or scoop and dispose of it in a sanitary manner.
Clean and disinfect the scoop or net. After cleaning leave the net or scoop immersed in
the pool during this infection. Vacuuming the stool is not allowed.
Establish a fecal accident log documenting....? - correct answer.(1) the date and time of
the event
(2) if the accident is a result of a form stools or diarrhea
(3) The free available chlorine concentration at the time or observation of the event and
before opening the public pool
(4) The pH
(5) The procedures followed to respond to the fecal accident including the process used
to increase free chlorine residual if necessary
(6) The contact time
Procedures for form stool that is solid and not liquid - correct answer.Raise the free
available chlorine level to 2 ppm and ensure that the pH is between 7.2 and 7.5
Maintain the chlorine concentration for at least 25 minutes. Ensure this concentration is
found throughout all waters by sampling at least three widely spaced locations away
from return outlets
Procedures for diarrhea liquid or non-form stools - correct answer.Raise the free
available chlorine level two 20 ppm and ensure that the pH is between 7.2 and 7.5
Maintain the chlorine concentration and pH for eight hours while ensuring that the
filtration system is operating. Backwash the filter thoroughly discharging the effluent
directly to waste. Where appropriate replace the filter media
Bathers may be allowed into pool after chlorine concentration has been returned to
normal operating ranges
Acid demand - correct answer.The amount of acid required to reduce pH and alkalinity
to the correct range
, Algae - correct answer.Microscopic plant like organisms that grow in water do to warm
temperatures and in adequate sanitizer. Algae can be green blue green black or yellow
green (mustard).
Alkalinity - correct answer.A measure of the ability of pool water to resist changes in
pH. Buffering capacity of water.
Balanced water - correct answer.The correct ratio of hardness, alkalinity, temperature,
dissolved solids, and pH that prevent pool water from being either corrosive or scale
forming
Bromine - correct answer.A chemical element that exists as a liquid in its elemental
form or as part of a chemical compound that is an oxidant and a biocidal agent used to
disinfect pool, spa and hot tub water.
Bromamine - correct answer.Bromine-ammonia compounds formed when the bromine
in the water combines with ammonia, nitrogen or swimmer or bather waste. Unlike
Chloramines they do not smell or irritate the body. They are active sanitizers.
Calcium hardness - correct answer.The amount of dissolved calcium in the pool. High
levels promote scale and cloudy water. Low levels promote corrosion of the pool or spa
equipment.
Cavitation - correct answer.Formation of partial vacuums when the pump exceeds the
water supply
Chlorine - correct answer.A chemical element that exists as a gas in its elemental form
or as a part of a chemical compound that is an oxidant and a biocidal agent used in
pool, spa, and hot tub disinfection
Chlorine demand - correct answer.The amount of chlorine necessary to destroy the
germs, algae, and other impurities in the water. Demand refers to the amount required
before chlorine can be made available to continue sanitizing the pool, spa, or hot tub
water.
Chloramines - correct answer.A compound formed when chlorine combines with
ammonia, nitrogen, or swimmer or bather wastes. They cause eye and skin irritation,
and they have a strong objectionable odor.
Chlorine residual - correct answer.The amount of measurable chlorine remaining after
treating water with chlorine to disinfect and oxidize contaminants. It may also be
explained as the amount of chlorine left after satisfying the chlorine demand.
Free available chlorine (FAC) - correct answer.The portion of total chlorine remaining in
chlorinated water that is not combined with ammonia or nitrogen compounds and will
react chemically with undesirable or disease causing organisms
