Borden pool opening delayed until late July because of leak

Borden Natural Swimming Pool won't open until late July after a leak was discovered in one of the pool basins. A city spokesperson said the leak was discovered when staff were preparing for the pool's original June 21 opening date and is believed to have been caused by the freeze-thaw cycle. 'The leaking was found where the pipe connects with one of the natural filter beds which is filled with rocks and plants. Investigation and repair of the leak source required removal of the rocks from the filter to expose the liner. The filter has now been repaired and reassembled,' Christina Chu, with the community services department, told CTV News Edmonton in an email. 'After this repair, the pool is filled, then the water needs to be tested for safety and pass Alberta Health standards and inspections. We are currently anticipating an approximate open date of mid- to late-July.' Repairs are estimated to cost between $80,000 and $100,000, due to the specialized filter material and labour-intensive nature of the work. The city website currently lists July 21 as the pool's opening date. As a natural pool, no chemicals are used to clean the water at Borden Natural Swimming Pool. Instead, rock filters and natural processes are used in the regeneration basin to clean the water. It is the first of its kind in Canada.
