Cross Connection Control Program
The District's Cross Connection Control Program is mandated by the California Department of Public Health (CDPH), under Title 17 of the California Administrative Code of Regulation. It is an extensive effort to protect the public water system from potential sources of contamination that may exist within customers' plumbing systems and equipment on site.
Backflow Compliance Testing
A list of approved Commercial Backflow Testers can be found on San Bernardino County's website, on their Environmental Health Services Department page. Since the County maintains and updates this list, please visit their website directly for the most current list.
