The Risk Management/Safety Module outlines steps to be taken to manage and reduce these risks and associated health problems. The Risk Management/Safety Module contains new guidelines covering:
- Controlled access aquatic venues (e.g., lazy rivers) not requiring depth markers throughout
- Expanded employee training to cover fecal- and vomit-related pathogen response and clean-up
- Potential sources of glare and ways to prevent glare in aquatic venue design
- Consideration of water temperature and patron use
- Expanded chemical storage and handling
- Use of remote monitoring systems
- Employee illness policies
- Inspection items for daily opening and closing of aquatic features or venues
