hazard shall be determined by the county upon review of the application and

shall inform the applicant as to what devices are required. In some cases, the

county may have to inspect the existing or proposed plumbing system when

completed to determine the exact device required.

whether or not cross-connections exist, shall have adequate protection

devices to properly protect against a potential cross-connection and the

degree of hazard determined by the county.

protect against a potential cross-connection and the degree of hazard

determined by the county.

Generally, all properties connected to the county water system shall have approved cross-connection or backflow prevention devices installed on each water service line where, in the judgment of the county, a health, pollution, or system hazard may exist to the waterworks. The county shall designate the type of protection and device required for each service depending on the degree of hazard that exists or may exist. The degree of hazard shall be determined by the county upon review of the application and shall inform the applicant as to what devices are required. In some cases, the county may have to inspect the existing or proposed plumbing system when completed to determine the exact device required.

(3) Premises having internal cross-connections that, in the judgment of the county, or the state health department, may not be easily correctable or intricate plumbing arrangements which make it impracticable to determine whether or not cross-connections exist, shall have adequate protection devices to properly protect against a potential cross-connection and the degree of hazard determined by the county.

(4) Premises where, because of security requirements or other prohibitions or restrictions, it is impossible or impractical to make a complete cross- connection survey, shall have adequate protection devices to properly protect against a potential cross-connection and the degree of hazard determined by the county.
