Our equivalent Down Under (Aussie) are the various State Govt WorkCover Authorities or their equivalents. They have authority over any recreational diving where there is a workplace involved. A workplace is basically anywhere where there is commercial gain ie dive stores, charter boats, dive sites where an instructor is teaching etc. A similiar scene applies in the UK where recreational diving instructors have to be registered as commercial divers. I am sure that Occupational Health & Safety legislation will catch up with the US recreational diving industry in due course Rob Cason IANTD Australasia IANTDAUS@Oz*.co*.au*
