U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder has signed a final rule extending the date for compliance with sections 242 and 1009 of the 2010 Americans with Disabilities Act Standards for Accessible Design. The rule requires accessible access to existing swimming pools, wading pools, and spas for a period of 60 days after the publication of the rule in the Federal Register. Another Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) was also issued for public comment on extending period to 180 days to allow pool owners and operators to meet compliance obligations. Comments on the NPRM must be submitted on or before April 4, 2012.
