In addition to routine maintenance, a recreational water facility owner or operator MUST report any death, near drowning or serious injury to their local health department within 48 hours (RCW 70.90 and WAC 246-260). A serious injury means someone has called for emergency aid (such as 911) and the person needs immediate medical treatment at a clinic or emergency room or has been admitted to a hospital. Please email Clark County Public Health to report an incident.
