20.06.040 Backflow Prevention Device Requirement.
Approved backflow prevention devices shall be installed at the expense of the user, either at the service connection or within the premises, as determined by a cross connection inspector employed by the Town of Garfield, whenever:
(1) The nature and extent of any activity of the premises, or the materials used in connection with any activity of the premises, or material stored on the premises, could contaminate or pollute the drinking water supply.
(2) Premises having any one or more cross connections as that term defined in section 1(d) are identified or are present.
(3) Internal cross connections that are not correctable, or intricate plumbing arrangements which make it impractical to ascertain whether or not cross connections are present.
(4) There is a repeated history of cross connections being established or re-established on the premises.
(5) There is unduly restricted entry so that inspections for cross connections cannot be made to assure that cross connections do not exist.
(6) Materials of a toxic or hazardous nature are being used such that, if backflow should occur, a health hazard could result.
(7) There is a mobile apparatus which uses Town water, or water from any premises served by the municipal water supply system.
(8) An appropriate cross connection report form has not been filed with the Town of Garfield.
(9) A fire sprinkler system using non-potable piping material is connected to the Town’s water system. (Ord. 282-N, §5, 2001)
