April 14, 1960 <br />Atherton Island Home Owners' Association <br />Box 11, Atherton island <br />Stockton, Califcrnia <br />Attention Mrs. Bud Klein <br />Gentlemen; re Atherton Island Swimming rooi <br />we are contacting all ewCeming pool operators, and listing items <br />needing correction or repair prior to the onset of heavy pool usage. <br />The following items will require attention and correction at the <br />above named pool; <br />Computed pool capacity and filter bed area reveal <br />that the filters and circulation system fail <br />to provide an e hour turnover of pool water, as <br />provided by the L-as and eegulations elatin g to <br />Swimming Pools. <br />Two surface skimmers lave been installed. current <br />standards require one skimmer for each 5d0 square <br />feet of pool surface area. Iwo additional skimmers <br />should be installed at locations which take advantage <br />of natural skimming action ox prevailing winds. <br />The main drain of the pooi should be connected to <br />the recirculation nystem. The skimmers are to be <br />capable of circulating at least 50 percent of the <br />recirculation capacity. <br />Provide a chlorinator that meets the requireidents <br />of Section 7806. <br />No provision has been made to prevent bad: siphonage <br />from the pool through the male-up line and valves <br />into the domestic water supply. Provision :Just be <br />tilt‘de to conform with Section 7797. <br />Provide depth markers on Ueth upper edge of pool wall <br />and on edge of pool depth at points of maximum depth, <br />minimum depth, and breal, point depth, and at no more <br />than 2!-J foot intervals. :eirker numerals are to be <br />a minimum heicht of four inches. <br />1106Q bibs in pool area are to be equipped with <br />vacuum breakers. <br />There appears to be a leak in the pool piping, <br />causing an excessive amount of make-up water to be <br />added daily. This situation adds to the difficulty <br />of maintaining the required chlorine residual of <br />0.4 parts per million and the required water clarity <br />and an alkalinity of Iron Ji 7.2 to 8.4.
