Thousands of Los Angeles County pools are violating health code violations according to an NBC4 investigation.

According to the report one of the pools guilty of health code violations is the Mar Vista Recreation Center pool, which opened two weeks ago without undergoing an inspection.

NBC4 says the same pool was cited last year for not containing enough bacteria-killing chlorine, and for an abundance of algae, dirt and debris.
