Garfield County public health officials and the Glenwood Hot Springs Pool say proper measures are being taken to make sure the pool is safe, after a local citizen reported health problems linked to a certain bacteria for which the pool tested positive on two occasions last summer.
John Bosco, chief operating officer for the Hot Springs Lodge and Pool, confirmed that routine water tests in August of 2014 revealed the bacteria pseudomonas aeruginosa in the hot therapy pool on two dates that month. But the reports indicated the levels were “negligible,” he said.
