Cross-Connection and Backflow Prevention

---

Plumbing cross-connections, which are defined as actual or potential connections between a potable and non-potable water supply, constitute a serious public health hazard.  All municipalities with public water supply systems should have cross-connection control programs.  Those responsible for institutional or private water supplies should also be familiar with the dangers of cross-connections and should exercise careful surveillance of their systems.
