Can an Open Water Event Director also be the Safety Director?
Thanks
Hi Ann
The two positions need to be different individuals according to the rules. The names and contact information for the two roles are entered into the Safety Plan and Sanction Request Form for the Open Water Event.
USMS Rulebook - Part 3 Article 303.3.1
If dual sanctioning the event, USA Swimming Rulebook - Part Seven Article 701.7 and 701.8
Thank you for your question.

Robin, that is exactly how I read it. And yet in the safety plan which I believe has been approved the Safety Director position is listed as TBD..........How is that even okay?
