Palmdale Backflow Testing Installation & Repair Regulations
1. Scope & Authority
The Palmdale Water District (PWD) oversees backflow prevention to safeguard the potable water system from contamination, under the authority of California Code of Regulations, Title 17, and the State Water Board’s Cross‑Connection Control Policy Handbook (CCCPH). Palmdale’s Cross‑Connection Control Program began with Ordinance No. 88‑1 in 1988 and was updated with Standard Operating Protocols (SOPs) and an amended policy via Resolution No. 20‑22 in 2020.
2. Responsibilities of Property Owners
Installation & Maintenance: Property owners must install and maintain approved backflow prevention assemblies (BPAs) when identified as necessary by PWD. The type and placement depend on the hazard and piping complexity.
Annual Testing: Certified testers must conduct BPA testing at least yearly. Owners are responsible for the cost and ensuring timely testing and reporting.
Repairs & Replacements: Any BPA that fails testing must be repaired or replaced promptly. Water service may be discontinued until compliance is demonstrated.
Administrative Fee: Starting July 1, 2021, there's a \$35 processing fee for paper test submissions unless the owner uses the District’s online portal through Syncta.
3. Scenarios Requiring BPAs
PWD requires BPAs at service connections when cross‑connection hazards are present, including—but not limited to—irrigation systems, industrial connections, chemical storage, or areas with a high risk of contamination.
4. Testing & Reporting Requirements
Annual Testing: All required BPAs must be tested annually by a certified tester.
Electronic Reporting: Testers and owners should submit results via the Syncta online system to avoid manual fees.
District Management: PWD maintains a BPA inventory, oversees hazard evaluations, issues notifications, conducts inspections, and updates public outreach.
5. Approved Devices & Certified Testers
Approved Devices: Only assemblies meeting industry standards—such as those endorsed by USC’s Foundation for Cross‑Connection Control and Hydraulic Research—are accepted.
Certified Testers: Tests must be conducted by individuals with valid certification from the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health.
6. Enforcement & Penalties
Failure to comply with Palmdale’s Cross‑Connection Control requirements—including installation, testing, or reporting—can result in water service termination until compliance is verified.
