The closure comes after inspectors found violations of city code.
One of D.C.’s largest and most popular aquatic centers remained shuttered for emergency repairs Friday after inspectors discovered a number of problems with the facility earlier in the week and immediately closed it, city officials said.Inspectors from D.C. Health found more than a dozen violations of city regulations at the Wilson Aquatic Center in Tenleytown during a Tuesday inspection.
D.C. Health and D.C.’s Department of General Services said in a joint statement Friday that the facility would reopen as soon as repairs were complete but did not give a date when that might occur.“The health, safety and well-being of District residents is our foremost priority,” the statement read. “The Wilson Aquatic Center received notice from the Department of Health on issues requiring corrective actions.
“Please note that initial test results show that lead was not detected on any playground surface that a person would be in direct contact with while on the equipment,” wrote Ely Ross, the chief operating officer for D.C. schools.
