The Southern Nevada Health District’s 2018 Aquatic Facility Regulations defines aquatic venues as any ”artificially constructed structure or modified natural structure where the general public is exposed to water intended for recreational or therapeutic purpose,” and requires that each aquatic venue have a valid health permit (AFR 3-101).

Any aquatic facility owner planning to construct an aquatic venue, or planning to remodel an existing aquatic venue, must make application with SNHD and receive written approval prior to starting any work.
