Certified Backflow Testers
Under Public Law 93-523, the Safe Drinking Water Act of 1974, and the regulations of the NAC445A, the water purveyor has the primary responsibility for preventing water from unapproved sources or any other substances, from entering the public potable water system.
In compliance with NAC445A it is the intent of this policy to adopt cross-connection control standards which establish the requirements for design, construction, installation, and maintenance of backflow prevention assemblies. It is the purpose of this policy to protect the potable water supply of the Virgin Valley Water District from the possibility of contaminants, pollutants, or water from an unapproved source from entering the Virgin Valley Water District's water system. More specifically, this policy in intended to prevent delivered water that has passed beyond the District's water system and into the consumer water system from re-entering the District's system.
The intent of the policy is to protect the Virgin Valley Water District's water system and its consumer from backflow, and back siphonange and/or cross-connections caused by customers whose water use may harm the quality and safety of the District's potable water supply.
VVWD requires backflow testing by a certified backflow prevention assembly tester at the Developer's expense to protect the potable water supply and to comply with Public Law 93-523 under the Safe Drinking Water Act of 1974. Complete information is available in VVWD'S Cross Connection and Backflow Control Program Implementation Plan (.pdf 1.3).
For your reference, below are some backflow testers certified to work with the Virgin Valley Water District.
