Out of curiosity, does this imply there is some permanent solution implemented here that will benefit the river after the Olympics as well?
I can imagine that having a clean river is good for many things, and they will keep using this facility?

It’s fairly standard practice for triathlons to dump a whole bunch of bleach into a lake or river to make it safe to swim in for a couple of days, but without continual treatment it quickly goes back to normal.
I'm not sure where this might be standard practice, but this would be very illegal in most of Europe. So that's not what is going to be done (as explained in the article).
