§ 98-54. Use of another water supply; cross connection prohibited.  


Latest version.
  • No service connection may be allowed from the city water mains to any premises supplied by water from any other source unless the director grants permission. The director may terminate such permission at any time. The director shall have the power to prescribe reasonable regulations for the use of water from another source on premises having a connection with the city water system. It shall be unlawful for any person to cause a connection to be made or to allow one to exist for any purpose whatsoever between the city water supply and any other source of water supply upon his premises. Every person having any other source of water supply upon his premises is required to make a customer's declaration of nonexistence of cross connection upon a form supplied by the water and sewer department before he shall be permitted to obtain or continue to use water from the city water system. City water service shall be discontinued upon any premises upon which there is found to be a connection between the city water supply and another water supply, and such service shall not be restored until such cross connection has been discontinued.
