Bill summary

House committee substitute makes the following changes to 2nd edition.
The previous edition codified, in GS 130A-281 and 130A-282, the prohibitions on the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) against denying an operation permit to owner/operators of public swimming pools for failure to comply with fencing requirements unless certain conditions were met, and for failing to provide dressing/sanitary facilities in certain circumstances. New edition retains the same prohibitions, but removes the directives from codification, and instead directs the Commission for Public Health to adopt rules consistent with the directives to DENR before January 1, 2012. Clarifies that an owner/operator of a public swimming pool that received an operation permit before April 1, 2010 (was, who had a fence constructed before April 1, 2010) is required to comply with fencing rules (1) when at least 50% of the fence is damaged or destroyed or (2) the owner/operator elects to replace the fence.
