6.4.2.3.2

Post Inspection Results

Code

The results of the most recent AHJ inspection of the AQUATIC FACILITY shall be posted at the AQUATIC FACILITY in a location conspicuous to the public.

Annex

There are only a relatively small number of municipal organizations that require public or web-based disclosure of inspection reports. However, as inspection activity is tax-payer supported, there is a growing trend toward requiring public disclosure. One recent example is the Beaches Environmental Assessment and Coastal Health (BEACH) Act of 2000, a Federal Act that requires public disclosure of coastal beach closings. Additionally, DeKalb County, Georgia requires the public posting of inspection results for AQUATIC FACILITIES as well as posting them on the internet, which is similar to the ever expanding requirement for posting inspection results at food service establishments. The posting of inspections at AQUATIC FACILITIES will increase public awareness of aquatic SAFETY and health and encourage aquatic operators to comply with all code requirements. Most jurisdictions require the permit to be conspicuously posted. This is to inform the public that the facility has met the minimum SAFETY STANDARDS required by law.
