Pool & Spa Safety Act Enacted Into Law
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Florida Swimming Pool Association (FSPA) is pleased to announce, along with the Association of Pool and Spa Professionals (APSP), the passage of the "Virginia Graeme Baker Pool and Spa Safety Act." This act, passed earlier in 2007 by the Senate Commerce Committee, was incorporated as Title IV of the omnibus energy bill approved by the Congress and signed by the President on December 19, 2007. The House of Representatives in July passed a slightly different version of the bill, but it is the Senate version that has now been enacted, with the full support of APSP and FSPA. Passage of this legislation is the culmination of a lengthy, intensive effort by both Houses of Congress to promote child safety in and around pools, spas and hot tubs.
