This powerpoint presentation begins by providing examples of cross connections, and presents the obstacle of premise isolation, building departments not sufficiently aware of the need; common opinion that if there is no permit, Building Officials have no responsibility or authority to enforce backflow prevention; and, not the Building Department's responsibility to protect water supply. The Manual for the Selection and Installation of Backflow Prevention Devices B64.10-01 is presented, along with Property Standards, and inspection of unsafe buildings.
