Pool & Spa Safety Act

Is anyone else fearing for their swim program due to the upcoming enforcement of the Virginia Graeme Baker Pool & Spa Safety Act? I swim in Massachusetts, and there's a possibility our pool will have to close due to compliance issues. Anyone else dealing with this? We've been calling our legislators and doing whatever we can, but I think it needs to be a national effort. Thoughts?

    We just got notice today that Harvard's pool is closed for emergency maintenance tomorrow, but with no announced re-open plan. I suspect the drain situation is the culprit. City of Boston has said they are closing 19 out of their 20 pools in community centers starting tomorrow. -Rick That's going to take a while to drain and refill!
