(A) When cross connections are found to exist, the customer will be notified in writing to disconnect the cross connection within the time limit established by the City Cross Connection Control Coordinator. The degree of protection required, and maximum time allowed for compliance will be based upon the potential degree of hazard to the public water supply system in accordance with this subchapter and/or results of the City's cross connection inspection(s).
(B) Facilities which pose a high-health hazard to the public water supply must have a containment assembly in the form of a reduced pressure principal assembly (RPPA) within 180 days unless otherwise specified by the City Cross Connection Control Coordinator.
(C) Industrial and commercial facilities not identified as a health hazard shall be considered low-health hazard facilities. Low-health hazard facilities must install, as a minimum containment assembly, a double check valve assembly (DCVA) within 180 days unless otherwise specified by the City Cross Connection Control Coordinator.
(D) If, in the judgment of the City Cross Connection Control Coordinator, an imminent health hazard exists, water service to the building or premises where a cross connection exists may be terminated unless an air gap is immediately provided, or the cross connection is immediately eliminated.
(E) In the event that a City Cross Connection Control Coordinator does not have sufficient access to every portion of a private water system (e.g. classified research and development facilities; federal government property) to allow a complete evaluation of the degree of hazard associated with such private water systems, an approved reduced pressure principle assembly (RPPA) shall be required as a minimum of protection.
