(a) If Tucson Water discovers that a customer has not installed a required backflow prevention method, or that a backflow prevention method has been improperly tested or maintained, bypassed or removed, or that an unprotected cross-connection exists in the customer's water system or any other violation of this article has occurred, the water service to that service connection shall be discontinued. If the condition is not remedied subsections 27-80(g) and (h) shall apply. The service shall not be restored until the condition is remedied or Tucson Water authorizes a turn on for assembly testing and continuance of service.
(b) Water service to a fire sprinkler system shall not be subject to discontinuance under this section. If a condition, which would otherwise result in discontinuance of fire service is not remedied, discontinuance of the potable water service shall result. See subsections 27-80 (g) and (h).
(c) Tucson Water may discontinue, without notice, water service to any customer when Tucson Water discovers any potential for contamination of the public water systems by the customer's private plumbing system.
