More than two dozen children are recovering after getting sick at a North Carolina water park.

Twenty-five children were sickened after a pump malfunctioned at Whitelake Water Park in Elizabethtown, just northwest of Wilmington.

Investigators said the problem caused a small amount of concentrated chlorine to be released into the pool. The children reportedly showed signs of nausea and vomiting and were taken to the hospital.

Their conditions haven't been released.

The owners of the water park said tests show the chlorine levels are now back to normal.
