The bill, H.B. No. 2613, introduces Chapter 75D to the Civil Practice and Remedies Code, which establishes 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, indicating that Texas law limits the liability of water park owners or operators for injuries or death resulting from attendance or participation in activities.

However, the bill also outlines exceptions to this limited liability. A water park entity remains liable for injuries that are proximately caused by the entity's negligence, a known dangerous condition, improper training of employees, or intentional actions by the entity. The bill emphasizes that the limitation on liability is in addition to other existing liability limitations. The changes made by this Act will apply only to causes of action that accrue on or after its effective date, which could be immediate or set for September 1, 2025, depending on legislative approval.
