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.

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.
