MAHC Webinar: Ensuring Aquatic Health and Safety: Updating the Model Aquatic Health Code (August 2020)
The Model Aquatic Health Code (MAHC) is a voluntary guidance document based on science and best practices that can help local and state authorities and the aquatics sector make swimming and other water activities healthier and safer. The Council for the Model Aquatic Health Code (CMAHC) convenes every three years to take part in a process to update the MAHC. In anticipation for the Vote the Code Conference in October 2020, panelists on an August 18 webinar discussed the process of developing, discussing, and voting on proposed changes to the MAHC.
