December 18, 2008, 3:27pm (report abuse)This is, without a doubt, Ione of the WORST bills ever passed in congress. It does not address the real hazard, that being backyard pool and spas. The law should not even apply to large commercial pool of which there is NO RECORDED CASE of drowning by entrapment. Wading pools YES, Hot tubs YES, commercial swimming pools NO.
WAKE UP CONGRESS! In the real world, compliance is a waste of time and money. But this is what you are good at, wasting time and money.
