Cross-Connection Control Program

Ensuring Clean, Safe Drinking Water and Regulatory Compliance is North Washington Street Water and Sanitation District's top priority.

For years, North Washington Street Water and Sanitation District has complied with an important Regulatory Water Safety Compliance Program known as Cross-Connection Control.

This state mandated program focuses on non-residential (commercial) water service connections and on-site visual inspections to identify potentially harmful interconnections to the North Washington Street Water and Sanitation District public water supply

This web page serves to assist North Washington Street Water and Sanitation District Customers with their participation in this important safety program. The town has selected HydroCorp to assist with Coordination, Site Visits, and Data/Compliance Management.

An Important Community-Wide Safety Project

Section 11.39 of the Colorado Department of Public Health & Environment Water Quality Control Commission’s Colorado Primary Drinking Water Regulation requires that the supplier must develop a written backflow prevention and cross-connection control program. Cross-connection control focuses on eliminating or protecting hazardous interconnections in the public water supply system which, in the event of a backflow incident, could inject pollutants and contaminants into the drinking water.
