Hollywood Cross-Connection Control and Backflow Prevention Testing
Regulation and Requirements

Because backflow devices are critical to maintaining clean, safe water supplies, California State Water Districts, County Health Boards and Local Municipalities regulations mandate that only licensed and certified backflow technicians and plumbers who have the expertise, training, have the legal authority to perform repairs or replacements in compliance with regulations and with the necessary quality control to protect the public water system.

In Hollywood, California, water services are provided by the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (LADWP). LADWP enforces a comprehensive Cross-Connection Control and Backflow Prevention Program to protect the public water supply from contamination or pollution caused by backflow incidents.

Failing to comply with the regulations Hollywood may result in fines or suspension of water service. It is important for Hollywood homeowners and businesses to stay up-to-date with local regulations and to ensure that their backflow devices are tested annually by a certified tester.

City of Hollywood Backflow Prevention Testing and Repair Overview

Hollywood CA, through LADWP, has established guidelines for backflow prevention and cross-connection control to protect the public water supply. Property owners are responsible for ensuring that BPAs are properly installed, tested annually, and maintained in good working order.

Before installation, property owners should contact LADWP's Backflow Prevention Group at (213) 367-3471 to verify that the backflow prevention device they plan to install is an approved assembly. Failure, refusal, or inability to install, test, and maintain the approved assembly may result in water service disconnection.

Hollywood Backflow Regulations Purpose

The City of Hollywood, through LADWP, has established guidelines for backflow prevention and cross-connection control to protect the public water supply.

LADWP's Backflow Prevention Group enforces comprehensive backflow prevention regulations to protect the city's public water supply from contamination. These regulations aim to prevent backflow, the unwanted reverse flow of water that can introduce pollutants or contaminants into the potable water system by implementing:

- Backflow Prevention: To prevent the reverse flow of water that could introduce contaminants or pollutants into the public water system.

- Cross-Connection Control: To eliminate or safeguard against connections between potable and non-potable water systems, ensuring the safety of drinking water.

Hollywood Backflow Prevention Device Requirements

For the City of Hollywood CA, LADWP requires the installation of approved backflow prevention assemblies (BPAs) in specific scenarios to protect the water supply.

All backflow prevention devices for Hollywood CA residential and commercial properties must be approved by recognized standards agencies like the Foundation for Cross-Connection Control and Hydraulic Research at USC or other equivalent organizations.

Backflow prevention devices must be installed in compliance with the Municipal Code and California Plumbing Code.

Below are some scenarios which require particular attention:

- Hollywood Service Connections: If LADWP or the City of Los Angeles Department of Building and Safety determines that a BPA is necessary, they will notify the consumer to install the approved assembly at the service connection to the premises.

- Hollywood Graywater Systems: When graywater systems are installed and a potential for cross-connection with the potable water supply exists, a reduced pressure principle backflow prevention device (RPBP) is required on the water service. The RPBP must be installed downstream of the water meter and prior to any branches off the water service.

- Additional Devices: Additional cross-connection control devices at properties in Hollywood may be required by the Los Angeles Department of Building and Safety or the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health in accordance with the Los Angeles Plumbing Code and other regulations to protect the potable water supplied within the building.

These devices must be installed immediately downstream of the water meter and must be approved by recognized testing agencies. The University of Southern California’s Foundation for Cross-Connection Control and Hydraulic Research (USC-FCCCHR) provides a comprehensive list of approved devices.


Backflow prevention assemblies for Hollywood CA properties are required in various scenarios, including:

- Hollywood CA Property Irrigation Systems: To prevent contaminants from entering the potable water supply through irrigation lines.

- Hollywood CA Commercial and Industrial Properties: Facilities with potential cross-connections, such as those involving chemicals or pressurized systems, are required to install appropriate backflow prevention assemblies.

- Hollywood CA Property Fire Protection Systems: To prevent stagnant water from fire suppression systems from flowing back into the drinking water supply.

- Hollywood CA Property Auxiliary Water Sources: Properties with alternative water sources like wells or cisterns must install backflow prevention devices to prevent cross-contamination.

- Hollywood CA Annual Backfllow Testing: All backflow prevention assemblies must be tested at least once a year by a certified tester.

City of Hollywood Profile and Municipal Office Contact Information

Hollywood, nestled within the central region of Los Angeles, is one of the most iconic and internationally recognized districts in the world—synonymous with cinema, celebrity, and the global entertainment industry. What began as an independent municipality in the early 20th century has evolved into a cultural brand that transcends geography, symbolizing fame, creativity, and the enduring allure of the American Dream.

At the heart of Hollywood’s identity is its historic role as the birthplace of the modern film industry. In the early 1900s, film pioneers were drawn to the area’s favorable climate and varied landscapes, leading to the establishment of major studios. Today, Paramount Pictures Studios, the only major studio still located within Hollywood proper, offers both a working production environment and guided tours that connect visitors to the industry’s golden age and contemporary filmmaking.

Perhaps the most globally recognized landmark is the Hollywood Sign, perched atop the southern slope of Mount Lee in the Hollywood Hills. Originally erected in 1923 as an advertisement for a real estate development (“Hollywoodland”), the sign has become a towering symbol of ambition and cinematic mythology. The best views are accessible from Griffith Park, which also features the Griffith Observatory, a beloved public institution offering exhibitions on space and science, as well as sweeping views of the Los Angeles Basin.

The Hollywood Walk of Fame, stretching along Hollywood Boulevard and Vine Street, immortalizes more than 2,700 figures in film, television, music, radio, and theater with brass stars embedded in the sidewalk. Adjacent to the Walk of Fame is TCL Chinese Theatre (originally Grauman’s Chinese Theatre), a landmark opened in 1927, famous for its forecourt where stars have left their handprints and footprints in cement. Across the street, the Dolby Theatre serves as the home of the annual Academy Awards, further reinforcing Hollywood’s role as the epicenter of global cinema.

Hollywood is also a district of vibrant neighborhoods and mixed-use development. Hollywood & Highland, a commercial and entertainment complex, combines shopping, dining, and performance venues and serves as a central tourist destination. Nearby, Hollywood Bowl, an iconic outdoor amphitheater nestled in the hills, has hosted legendary musical acts and is home to the Los Angeles Philharmonic’s summer performances. Just a few minutes away, The Ford Theatre, a more intimate hillside venue, offers a diverse array of performing arts and cultural programming.

For those interested in the behind-the-scenes magic of moviemaking, Hollywood Museum, housed in the historic Max Factor Building, offers a deep dive into costumes, props, and memorabilia from across the decades. Likewise, Museum of Death, though not for the faint of heart, represents the district’s flair for the macabre and sensational.

Hollywood is also experiencing a wave of revitalization and urban reinvestment. New residential towers, boutique hotels, and restored landmarks are reshaping the skyline and enhancing walkability. Sunset Boulevard, stretching westward through the Sunset Strip, is lined with music venues, nightlife hotspots, and historic sites such as the Hollywood Palladium and the Whisky a Go Go—places where the rock, punk, and alternative scenes took root.

Despite its glossy exterior, Hollywood is a complex and multifaceted urban district. It is home not only to aspiring actors and producers, but to a diverse residential community of artists, immigrants, students, and entrepreneurs. Its neighborhoods range from the elegant Hollywood Hills, with luxury homes and panoramic vistas, to the eclectic energy of East Hollywood, with its blend of Thai Town, Armenian markets, and youth-driven culture.

Hollywood remains an enduring symbol—at once a geographic location, an industry epicenter, and a cultural myth. With its legacy rooted in the golden age of cinema and its future aligned with digital storytelling, immersive media, and global entertainment trends, Hollywood continues to evolve while retaining its mythic allure.
