Final operation testing at the Bluffton Community Pool,  205 Snider Rd., has revealed three cracked 8” supply lines near the sand filters. The Village of Bluffton hopes to open the pool on Sunday, May 31, following a repair that includes honing the fittings with the correct tolerances.

The cracks were hidden, suggesting that gaskets only needed to be replaced. If the repair doesn't work, the sand filters will need to be replaced.
