RiverStone Health inspectors verify that public pools in Yellowstone County correctly test disinfectant levels and have proper safety equipment and signs to prevent injury or drowning. Residential pools rely on the ISPSC barrier as the core safety control.
For public pools, RiverStone Health Environmental Health Services conducts inspections geared toward verifying that operators accurately test the water for chlorine or bromine and other parameters that prevent recreational water illnesses, and that required safety equipment and warning signs are present. Public pools follow Montana's standards for public swimming pools (Circular FCS 3-2022, incorporating the ISPSC and ANSI/APSP/ICC 7-2020). For homes, safety is enforced through the child-resistant barrier under ISPSC Section 305 wherever a building code applies. Complaints about any public pool can be reported to RiverStone Health at 406.256.2770.
Public-pool operators who fail inspection face correction orders or closure by RiverStone Health. Residential barrier violations are code-enforcement matters where a code applies.
