The bill, H.B. No. 2613, introduces Chapter 75D to the Civil Practice and Remedies Code, establishing limited liability for water park entities regarding injuries sustained by participants during water park activities. It defines key terms such as "water park," "water park activity," "water park entity," "water park participant," and "water park participant injury." The bill stipulates that a water park entity is not liable for injuries if a specific warning sign is posted at the entrance of the water park, except in cases of negligence, known dangerous conditions, improper employee training, or intentional harm caused by the entity.

Additionally, the bill mandates that the warning sign must clearly inform visitors that Texas law limits the liability of water park owners or operators for injuries or death resulting from participation in water park activities. The changes in law will apply only to causes of action that accrue after the bill's effective date, which will be immediate if it receives a two-thirds vote from both houses of the legislature; otherwise, it will take effect on September 1, 2025.
