Experts say this is the worst chlorine shortage in a century. The shortage comes after a major hurricane swept through Louisiana last year. It sparked a fire inside one of the largest chlorine plants in the country. "We should have enough for the whole summer but it was just a shocker that all the sudden we can't get any chlorine,” Mark Reynolds said inside the Pettis Pools in Hilton.
