Pages 67 & 68 in this years CCA Manual. "Established PU's position on a ground ball in the infield, assisting on illegal slides and covering R1 if he advances toward third base."
The change is that in the past, PU only covered 3B on a ball that left the infield on a base hit. Also, the PU would watch the slide into 2B from the 1B side of the mound. Now the PU goes to the 3B side of the mound and also retains dead ball responsibility on the overthrow of 1B. The only thing to remember with this change is that U1 must now own the swipe tag call.
Hope this helps.
