As a guard for a city pool: we have to send weekly samples in for testing as well. Our chlorine levels are usually 1.5-3mg/L (Alberta Health regulation policies say it needs to be over 1 mg/L Read here:
http://www.health.alberta.ca/documen...ards-Pools.pdf ) At our pool, we like it to be around 3 mg/L. If you look up Recreational facility closures on their website, you can see pools that have had issues:

If we have any "contaminations" we close the pool, hyper-chlorinate and we have to send a sample to the lab. We take WRI's (water related illnesses) pretty seriously.
