When would the facility close unexpectedly?
The HFAC may close or specific pools may be closed down unexpectedly due to various instances, such as:
- Lighting within 25 miles
- AQI Air Index over 200 (smokey air)
- Code Brown - foreign matter in the pool
- Low patron count (typically due to low temperatures)
- Other unforeseen circumstances
If a pool is closed, staff gives it their best effort to get the pool back open in a reasonable amount of time based on the standards set by the State of Oregon.
