The requirements in this rule apply to all wading pools built before July 13, 2006.
(1) RETRO-FIT RECIRCULATION SYSTEMS. All water-retaining wading pools need recirculation, filtration, and disinfection. Those wading pools without water recirculation shall be renovated, or phased out of use and removed, before December 31, 2009.
(a) COMPLIANCE. Operators of all wading pools affected by this rule must provide to the Division or its agent, before July 1, 2007, a proposed plan and timetable for renovation or removal of the pool.
(A) The proposed plan and timetable will be reviewed by the Division or agent health department and an acceptable plan and timetable will be negotiated or approved.
(B) Before renovation begins, construction plans, a plan review application and fees must be submitted to the Division or its agent to obtain plan approval.
(C) If a wading pool operator fails to submit a plan by July 1, 2007, or fails to complete renovations or removal by December 31, 2009, the license for the pool will not be renewed:
(i) After December 31, 2009, wading pools without water recirculation systems and without a license to operate, are declared public nuisances under the authority of ORS 448.060 (Operating pool or other facility without permit, plan approval or license); and
(ii) The Division or its agent, in compliance with ORS 448.060 (Operating pool or other facility without permit, plan approval or license) may proceed with abatement of said nuisance.
(b) INTERIM OPERATION. Operators of wading pools that have no recirculation, filtration or disinfection systems must change the water at least every four hours. This may be accomplished by gradual drainage, or by dumping and filling. This may continue until the wading pool is retro-fit or December 31, 2009 whichever comes first. Additional requirements include:
(A) At opening, and every two hours after that, until closing, the water must be tested and a chlorinating product added to reach a residual of 5 ppm.
(B) The water must be drained at closing each day. Before opening again, the basin must be thoroughly rinsed and any debris removed. The basin must be scrubbed at least weekly, with a solution containing at least 50 ppm of chlorine, mixed according to the directions on the chemical container. Potable water must be used to fill the pool and the chlorine level adjusted.
(2)(a) Protection against ENTRAPMENT, HAIR ENTANGLEMENT and EVISCERATION for all suction fittings will be provided on all wading pools, except those addressed in subsection (1)(b) of this rule by December 31, 2008.
(b) COMPLIANCE. If a wading pool operator fails to provide entrapment protection by December 31, 2008 the operator will close the wading pool until either protection is provided and approved by the Division or its agent, or the pool is removed. If corrections are not completed by December 31, 2009, the license for the pool will not be renewed.
(A) Before renovation begins; construction plans, a plan review application and fees must be submitted to the Division or its agent to obtain plan approval.
(B) After December 31, 2009, wading pools without entrapment protection and without a license to operate are declared public nuisances under the authority of ORS 448.060 (Operating pool or other facility without permit, plan approval or license);
(C) The Division or its agent, in compliance with ORS 448.060 (Operating pool or other facility without permit, plan approval or license) may proceed with abatement of said nuisance, including summary abatement, if necessary.
(D) Renovations must meet the requirements of OAR 333-060-0505 (New Wading Pool Construction)(5) after June 16, 2009.
