If no water main exists in close proximity, or the main is inadequate, subsection B of this section shall apply. The precise location of service laterals shall be designated by the engineer. Such service laterals shall be installed by the owner or his contractor at the expense of the person requesting the same. The owner or his contractor shall make an application and obtain a permit for the proposed connection.

B. Main Extension or Reconstruction.

1. Application.

a. Where no water main exists in close proximity to the property to be served, or where the main is of insufficient size, as determined by the engineer, the person desiring such service shall bear the cost of construction of a water main sufficient in size to serve such property. An application for such service shall not be accepted unless a cash deposit is made with the department, in an amount equal to the estimated construction costs of the main extension, as determined by the engineer.

b. An applicant may, upon approval of the engineer, construct or cause the construction of such water main extension at his own expense, in which case the applicant will not be required to post a deposit for the cost of construction.

c. If the construction of the water main is accomplished by the city and the actual cost of the same is greater than the amount deposited, the applicant shall, forthwith, pay the difference to the department. If the actual cost is less than the amount deposited, the difference shall, forthwith, be refunded by the city to the applicant.

d. All facilities constructed hereunder shall be deemed, for all purposes, the property of the city, and shall be maintained by the city. A permit shall be required for this work.

2. Size of Facilities. If the city should elect to cause the construction of facilities of greater capacity than required by the service requested, the city shall assume any additional cost involved, which shall be determined by the city.

3. Reimbursement Arrangements. If the system being constructed necessarily extends past property not connected to the city's system, which at some future date may connect thereto, the applicant may request reimbursement of a proportional share of the cost thereof, by means of an agreement with the city, providing for such reimbursement from funds actually received for connection fees. Where such construction occurs, and reimbursement is requested, properties which subsequently request permission to connect to such main shall pay the city a charge therefor, in addition to all other charges and costs, in an amount equal to the proportional share of the cost of such construction, in amounts allocated and set by the engineer.

Damage resulting from violation of this rule shall be charged to the consumer.

(Prior code § 2962)

In all cases in which water is being served to premises occupied by two or more different and independent consumers of water, which premises are held under the same ownership, the owner of such premises shall provide independent service to the service connection for each such independent consumer; provided, however, that if the owner of such premises so served with water shall agree in writing to be responsible for and pay all money due for water used upon such premises, such independent service shall not be required. Should the owner fail or refuse to provide such independent service or fail or refuse to assume responsibility for money due for water used upon such premises, the department shall, after thirty days' notice to the consumer so served, and to the owner of such premises, or the person in charge thereof, cut off water from such premises until the independent services herein required are installed or the agreement assuming responsibility for the money due for water served to the premises is made as herein provided.

(Prior code § 2967)

No service connection shall be made for the purpose of supplying through a common service two or more independent consumers occupying premises held under the same ownership, unless the structures served are on the same lot, or the property is what is known as a court, or apartment house, or block covering more than one lot, and then only providing the owner or owners of such premises shall agree in writing to pay all charges for water served thereto.

(Prior code § 2968)

No water shall be served to two or more parcels of property separately owned through a common service, except where such service existed prior to the date of adoption of this chapter. In the event any present consumer of such a service ceases to use such service, the right to use such common service shall terminate and, in any event, no such common service shall be continued for a period of one year beyond the effective date of this chapter. The city council, upon application being duly made, may grant an extension of time to continue such a common service upon such terms and conditions as it may deem reasonable.

(Prior code § 2969)

Whenever a service is installed for private fire protection, a charge shall be made for labor, material and engineering, plus fifteen percent for overhead, and shall include the cost of furnishing and installing a detector check meter, or other fire service meter, when such meter is deemed necessary by the city engineer. Such service shall be used only in case of fire and if it is found that a fire service has been used for any purpose other than in case of fire, the department shall charge the sum of twenty-five dollars for such incident of unauthorized use. If unauthorized use of a fire service persists, the department may discontinue the fire service.

(Prior code § 2973)

A. 1.

"Approved water supply" means a potable water supply of safe, sanitary quality which is approved for human consumption by the authorities having jurisdiction thereof.

2. "Cross-connection" means any arrangement or installation of piping or structures whereby it is possible for used, unclean, polluted or contaminated water, mixture, or substances to enter any portion of any approved water supply.

B. After thirty days written notice to the consumer, water service by the department may be discontinued to any premises upon which there is found to be another source of water supply or a cross-connection. The service shall not be restored until such cross-connection has been eliminated or backflow devices satisfactory to the department have been installed. The expense and maintenance of backflow devices and cost of eliminating cross-connections shall be paid by the consumer or owner of the premises.

(Prior code § 2975)

A. The type of protection that shall be provided to prevent backflow into the approved water supply shall be commensurate with the degree of hazard that exists on the consumer's premises. The type of protective device that may be required (listing in an increasing level of protection) includes: double check valve assembly (DC), reduced pressure principle backflow prevention device (RP), and an air-gap separation (AG). The water user may choose a higher level of protection than required by the city. The minimum types of backflow protection required to protect the approved water supply, at the user's water connection to premises with varying degrees of hazard are given in Table 13.04.280. Situations which are not covered in Table 13.04.280 shall be evaluated on a case-by-case basis and the appropriate backflow protection shall be determined by the city or health agency. (See Table 13.04.280 exhibit at end of this chapter.)

B. Two or more services supplying water from different street mains to the same building, structure, or premises through which an intersect main flow may occur, shall have at least a standard check valve on each water service to be located adjacent to and on the property side of the respective meters. Such check valve shall not be considered adequate if backflow protection is deemed necessary to protect the city's mains from pollution or contamination. In such cases the installation of approved backflow devices at such service connections shall be required.

(Prior code §§ 2976.1 and 2976.2)

A. Approved Backflow Prevention Devices.

1. Only backflow prevention devices which have been approved by the city shall be acceptable for installation by a water user connected to the city's potable water system.

2. The city will provide, upon request, to any affected customer a list of approved backflow prevention devices.

B. Backflow Prevention Device Installation.

1. Backflow prevention devices shall be installed in a manner prescribed in Section 7603, Title 17 of the California Code of Regulations. Location of the devices should be as close as practical to the user's connection. The city shall have final authority in determining the required location of a backflow prevention device.

a. Air-Gap Separation (AG). The air-gap separation shall be located on the user's side of and as close to the service connection as is practical. All piping from the service connection to the receiving tank shall be above grade and be entirely visible. No water use shall be provided from any point between the service connection and the air-gap separation. The water inlet piping shall terminate a distance of at least two pipe diameters of the supply inlet, but in no case less than one inch above the overflow rim of the receiving tank.

b. Reduced Pressure Principle Backflow Prevention Device (RP). The approved reduced pressure principle backflow prevention device shall be installed on the user's side of and as close to the service connection as is practical. The device shall be installed a minimum of twelve inches above grade and not more than thirty-six inches above grade measured from the bottom of the device and with a minimum of twelve inches side clearance. The device shall be installed so that it is readily accessible for maintenance and testing. Water supplied from any point between the service connection and the RP device shall be protected in a manner approved by the city.

c. Double Check Valve Assembly (DC). The approved double check valve assembly shall be located as close as practical to the user's connection and shall be installed above grade, if possible, and in a manner where it is readily accessible for testing and maintenance. If a double check valve assembly is put below grade it must be installed in a vault such as that there is a minimum of six inches between the bottom of the vault and the bottom of the device, so that the top of the device is no more than a maximum of eight inches below grade, so there is a minimum of six inches of clearance between the side of the device with the test cocks and the side of the vault, and so there is a minimum of three inches clearance between the other side of the device and the valve assembles of the "y" type. These devices must be installed on their side with the test cocks in a vertical position so that either check valve may be removed for service without removing the device. Vaults which do not have an integrated bottom must be placed on a three-inch layer of gravel.

C. Backflow Prevention Device Testing and Maintenance.

1. The owners of any premises on which, or on account of which, backflow prevention devices are installed, shall have the devices tested by a person who has demonstrated their competency in testing of these devices to the city. Backflow prevention devices must be tested at least annually and immediately after installation, relocation or repair. The city may require a more frequent testing schedule if it is determined to be necessary. No device shall be placed back in service unless it is functioning as required. A report in a form acceptable to the city shall be filed with the city each time a device is tested, relocated or repaired. These devices shall be serviced, overhauled or replaced whenever they are found to be defective and all costs of testing, repair, and maintenance shall be borne by the water user.

2. The city will supply affected water users with a list of persons acceptable to the city to test backflow prevention devices. The city will notify affected customers by mail when annual testing of a device is needed and also supply users with the necessary form which must be filled out each time a device is tested or repaired.

D. Backflow Prevention Device Removal. Approval must be obtained from the city before a backflow prevention device is removed, relocated or replaced:

1. Removal. The use of a device may be discontinued and the device removed from service upon presentation of sufficient evidence to the city to verify that a hazard no longer exists or is not likely to be created in the future;

2. Relocation. A device may be relocated following confirmation by the city that the relocation will continue to provide the protection and satisfy installation requirements. A retest will be required following the relocation of the device;

3. Repair. A device may be removed for repair, provided the water user is either disconnected until repair is completed and the device is returned to service, or the service connection is equipped with other backflow protection approved by the city. A retest will be required following the repair of the device; and

4. Replacement. A device may be removed and replaced provided the water use is discontinued until the replacement device is installed. All replacement devices must be approved by the city and must be commensurate with the degree of hazard involved.

(Prior code § 2977)

At each premises where it is necessary, in the opinion of the city, a user supervisor shall be designated by and at the expense of the water user. This user supervisor shall be responsible for the monitoring of the backflow prevention devices and for avoidance of cross-connections. In the event of contamination or pollution of the drinking water system due to a cross-connection on the premises, the city shall be promptly notified by the user supervisor so that the appropriate measurers may be taken to overcome the contamination. The water user shall inform the city of the user supervisor's identity on, as a minimum, an annual basis and whenever a change occurs.

(Prior code § 2978)

A. Water System Survey.

1. The city shall review all requests for new services to determine if backflow protection is needed. Plans and specifications must be submitted to the city upon request for review of possible cross-connection hazards as a condition of service for new service connections. If it is determined that a backflow prevention device is necessary to protect the public water system, the required device must be installed before service will be granted.

2. The city may require an on-premises inspection to evaluate cross-connection hazards. The city will transmit a written notice requesting an inspection appointment to each affected water user. Any customer which cannot or will not allow an on-premises inspection of their piping system shall be required to install the backflow prevention device the city considers necessary.

3. The city may, at its discretion, require a reinspection for cross-connection hazards of any premises to which it serves water. The city will transmit a written notice requesting an inspection appointment to each affected water user. Any customer which cannot or will not allow an on-premises inspection of their piping system shall be required to install the backflow prevention device that the city considers necessary.

B. Customer Notification—Device Installation.

1. The city will notify the water user of the survey finding, listing corrective action to be taken if required. A period of sixty days will be given to complete all corrective action required including installation of backflow prevention devices.

2. A second notice will be sent to each water user which does not take the required corrective action prescribed in the first notice within the sixty-day period allowed. The second notice will give the water user a two-week period to take the required corrective action. If no action is taken within the two-week period, the city may terminate water service to the affected water user until the required corrective actions are taken.

C. Customer Notification—Testing and Maintenance.

1. The city will notify each affected water user when it is time for the backflow prevention device installed on their service connection to be tested. This written notice shall give the water user thirty days to have the device tested and supply the water user with the necessary form to be completed and resubmitted to the city.

2. A second notice shall be sent to each water user which does not have his/her backflow prevention device tested as prescribed in the first notice within the thirty-day period allowed. The second notice will give the water user a two-week period to have his/her backflow prevention device tested. If no action is taken within the two-week period, the city may terminate water service to the affected water user until the subject device is tested.

(Prior code § 2979)

The city shall have the right at any time to shut off any water by reason of any emergency, for making repairs, modifications, changes or other work in the water service facilities. In cases of such shut-off, city personnel shall notify all residents, if possible, that the water is being shut off.

(Prior code § 2974)

A. General. When the city encounters water uses that represent a clear and immediate hazard to the potable water supply that cannot be immediately abated, the city shall institute the procedure for disconnecting the city water service.

B. Basis for termination. Conditions or water uses that create a basis for water service termination shall include, but not be limited to, the following items;

1. Refusal to install a required backflow prevention device;

2. Refusal to test a backflow prevention device;

C. Water Service Termination Procedures.

1. For conditions set out in subdivisions 1, 2, 3, or 4 of subsection B of this section, the city will terminate service to a customer's premises after two written notices have been sent specifying the corrective action needed and the time period in which it must be done. If no action is taken within the allowed time period water service may be terminated.

2. For conditions set out in subdivision 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 of subsection B of this section, the city will take the following steps:

a. Make a reasonable effort to advise the water user of intent to terminate water service;

b. Terminate water supply and lock service valve. The water service will remain inactive until correction of violations has been approved by the city.

(Prior code § 2980)

No person shall turn on the water serving any premises after it has been turned off at the curb stop by the department. In the event any person does so turn on the water or cause it to be turned on, there shall be an additional charge placed against the service. The amount of such charge shall be established by resolution of the city council. Service may not be resumed until all delinquent charges, penalty charges, if any, and the additional amount provided herein shall have been paid.

(Prior code § 2957)

In the event any water is shut off or service is discontinued pursuant to the provisions of this chapter, or in order to carry out the terms, intent and objective of this chapter, or when necessary to service the system, its facilities or any portion of the system or its facilities, or to protect the public health interest, safety and general welfare, or in the interest of the consumers of water provided by the department, there shall be no liability on the part of the city, its officers and employees for any claim, demand or judgment arising therefrom.
