749.3131 states that the rules in Division 7 of Subchapter O related to swimming pools apply only to foster homes or foster/adopt homes, not to homes that are only approved for adoption. 749.3663(c) requires that the child-placing agency discuss safety issues and plans to ensure the child’s safety with adoptive applicants who have a swimming pool, wading pool, hot tub, or other body of water on the premises of their home.
