(2) If an indoor swimming pool is on the premises, the swimming pool must have an access door that restricts entry;
(3) If a hot tub is on the premises, the hot tub must be securely covered; and
(4) A child may not be permitted to play in an area where there is a body of water, unless the caretaker can see and hear the child and is close enough to intervene at all times.
