Owners and operators of public swimming pools have a deadline of Dec. 20, 2008, to have their swimming pools equipped with anti-entrapment drain covers and fittings conforming to ASME/ANSI standards. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) has released a list of companies that manufacture the swimming pool and spa drain covers in various sizes that have represented to the CPSC staff to meet the ASME/ANSI A112.19.8-2007 standard. The CPSC will enforce compliance with the Virginia Graeme Baker Pool and Spa Safety Act as a consumer product safety rule. The CPSC does not provide approval or endorsements for any of these companies.
