Salt Water Pools and Records

Someone told me salt water pools are now disqualified from USMS records and Top Ten eligibility. Is this true? I can't find any reference to this in the rule book.

  • Well my curiosity is...who is the governing body for say the open water swim in the Olympics? Is that FINA, or does IOC act as the authority for just that one swimming event? No, FINA is the governing body for all aquatics events (swimming, open water, diving, water polo, and synchro).
