The purpose of this chapter is: (1) to protect the public water supply against actual
or potential contamination that may occur within a water user's premises because of
some undiscovered or unauthorized cross-connection on the premises; (2) to eliminate
existing connections between drinking water systems and other sources of water that
are not approved as safe and potable for human consumption; (3) to eliminate cross-connections
between drinking water systems and sources of contamination; (4) to prevent the making
of cross-connections in the future.
These regulations are adopted pursuant to the State of California Administrative Code
Title 17 - Public Health entitled "Regulations Relating to Cross-Connections."
It is unlawful for any person, firm, or corporation at any time to make or maintain
or cause to be made or maintained, temporarily or permanently, for any period of time
whatsoever, any cross-connection between plumbing pipes or water fixtures being served
with water by the District Water Department and any other source of water supply or
to maintain any sanitary fixture or other appurtenances or fixtures which, by reason
of their construction, may cause or allow backflow of water or other substances into
the water supply system of the District and/or the service of water pipes or fixtures
of any consumer of the District.
