On 03/07/25, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), Kelli Waters conducted an unannounced visit on a separate matter. During the visit LPA Waters met with Licensee Natalja Barrera and conducted a Case Management visit on this date as well to update Licensee with Title 22 Regulations, specifically Assembly Bill (AB) 2866 – Pool Safety Requirements.

During this visit, LPA reviewed PIN Assembly Bill 2866, Chapter 745 and informed Licensee of the following:
- The new law states the pool must have an enclosure including, but not limited to, a fence, wall, or other barrier that isolates the pool from the home in addition to a pool cover, or alarm meeting specific American Society Testing and Materials standards. This is also known as ASTM standards.
- The enclosure including, but not limited to, a fence, wall, or other barrier must meet the following characteristics:
1. An access gate that opens away from the pool and is self-closing with a self-latching, lockable device that is no lower than 60 inches above the ground.
2. The enclosure must be at least 60 inches tall and the vertical clearance from the bottom of the enclosure to the ground must be no more than 2 inches.
3. No gaps in the enclosure that could allow for a sphere of 4 inches or larger to pass through.
4. The outside surface must be free of any physical characteristics that could be used as a handhold or foothold for a child to climb over.
5. If mesh fencing is used and it does not meet the requirements above, the licensee must provide documentation that establishes the mesh fencing is compliant with the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) International Standard F2286.

- In addition to the fence or enclosure requirements above, a family child care home with a pool must have either a pool cover and/or an alarm meeting ASTM Standards, as specified.

- Pool Alarms - An alarm must sound upon detecting entrance into the water. The alarm shall be turned on and be in working condition and audible during a facility’s operating hours while the swimming pool is not in use.

- Licensee shall maintain and make available for inspection, upon request by the department, documentation that establishes the alarm is compliant with ASTM International Standard F2208.

FCCH Additional safety equipment
Safety equipment that must be visible from the pool and available for immediate use includes:
1. A life ring with a diameter of at least 17 inches with a United States Coast Guard approval label.
2. A rescue pole with a body hook that is at least 12 feet long but must be long enough to effectively rescue a child at the facility’s pool. It must be a fixed length – and not an adjustable pole. Additional guidance will be forthcoming in written directives to specify this requirement so that the pole must be long enough for a rescue at the facility’s pool. A wider pool may require a longer rescue pole.

FCCH Daily Pool Inspections

The licensee must perform a daily inspection of all above safety features before children arrive for the day. A log of the daily inspections must be maintained by the licensee and provided to the Department upon request. This log will be checked along with the pool safety requirements during inspections or site visits. The Department is developing a form for daily inspections that will be provided through written directives. Until a department form is available, you can create your own log to verify daily pool inspections are completed.

LPA did a visual inspection of the in-ground pool and found the mesh fencing to be in compliance. The surrounding fencing is at least 60 inches in height and had a self-closing, self-latching, lockable device. At the time of the visit, Licensee had an approved 20 inch life ring and had purchased a pool alarm. A fixed length rescue pool was still in transit. LPA also provided licensee with a sample pool daily safety log.

An exit interview was conducted and a copy of this report, notice of site visit and appeal rights were provided and reviewed with licensee. Licensee was reminded that the notice of site visit must remain posted for 30 consecutive days.
