POOL SAFETY ATTORNEY: NEW REGULATIONS GOING INTO EFFECT
Public pools across America are opening for the summer season. There are new safety regulations for pools required by federal law. The Virginia Graeme Baker Pool and Spa Safety Act mandates specific pool safety requirements, such as, drain covers and a second anti-entrapment system that meets the new regulations. The anti-entrapment system must be installed in pools with a single main drain. The regulations affect all commercial pools, including, hotels, community centers and recreational facilities.
