Zoom Flume water park in East Durham has been accused by New York state of violating child labor laws.
Zoom Flume water park in East Durham has been accused by New York state of violating child labor laws.
The park has been ordered to pay just over $38,000 to the Department of Labor after an investigation found the park employed 35 15-year-old lifeguards at the top of elevated, power-driven water slides between July 2021 and July 2022. That’s just over $1,000 per worker.
