Investigation into 'Chlorine Incident' underway

Courtesy of the City of Williams Lake:

An investigation into the cause of the Feb. 26 chlorine incident at the Cariboo Memorial Recreation Complex is underway.

A number of City personnel, as well as an independent health and safety consultant are currently at the Complex conducting the investigation. The pool and the fitness centre will remain closed until the investigation is complete. The ice rinks remain open to the public. The Gibraltar Room will re-open Tuesday.

The City will notify residents when the investigation is complete and when the closed areas of the Complex will re-open to the public. The City will not speculate at this time as to the causes of the incident, preferring instead to await the outcome of the investigation.

Information will be released as it becomes available. Updates will be posted to www.williamslake.ca, www.activewilliamslake.ca, and at http://www.facebook.com/CityWilliamsLake
