Why Is Pool Water Cloudy?

At the Bensonhurst, Brooklyn Bally's I swim at the water is always cloudy. They did pool maintenance last month and emptied the pool. Right off the bat the refill was cloudy and has remained so. I mentioned it to the lifeguard and he assured me in broken English that it was very clean, despite the inability to see the bottom at the six foot end. It was cloudy before the refill if I remember correctly too. I see the guards testing the water now and then with a test tube and some kit of something, for whatever that's worth. What could be going on here?

    If the water is too soft it can be particulate from the plaster and grouting... or they could have just added a sack or two of powder to bring up the water hardness... Ive seen a pool look like milk right after it being added. and once it turned out to me my goggles.....
