Federal study of water park inconclusive

By Associated Press

MASON: Federal health officials say they can't determine what made some visitors sick after they visited an indoor water park in southwest Ohio last year.

The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health examined the Great Wolf Lodge in response to 622 reports from people who visited the park between December 2006 and April 2007. Visitors reported respiratory problems, eye irritation and skin rashes.

Authorities who released the report this week say a problem with the ventilation system might have contributed.

The water park, owned by Madison, Wis.-based Great Wolf Resorts Inc., met Ohio's water chemistry and ventilation guidelines, but state authorities are reviewing Ohio's indoor pool regulations for possible changes.
