General design, construction, and equipment.

(1) Owners shall locate RWCFs to:
(a) Minimize pollution by dust, smoke, soot, and other undesirable substances;
(b) Eliminate pollution from surrounding surface drainage; and
(c) Ensure pools within the RWCF are more than fifteen feet from any structure, object, or land formation (i.e., pumphouse, tree, etc.), which would provide a user with the opportunity to jump from such a structure into the pool. This does not include any barriers provided to prevent unauthorized access to pool or segments of attractions which enter pool.
