body
Background:
In 1974, the United States Environmental Protection Agency signed the Safe Drinking Water Act into law and released its first Cross-Connection Control Manual. In 1987, California established state regulations under Title 17 of the California Code of Regulations (CCR) outlining the requirements for cross connection control and backflow program compliance. Then in 1991, the City of Manteca adopted Ordinance 926, establishing the City of Manteca’s Cross-Connection Control Program, which is Chapter 13.06 of the Manteca Municipal Code (MMC). The ordinance established the means for the City to take action to protect the water system from actual or potential cross contamination from non-potable sources.
The State Water Resources Control Board recently replaced Title 17’s cross-connection control regulations with a new Cross-Connection Control Handbook. This change impacts the City of Manteca’s ordinance, as it refers to Title 17. MMC Chapter 13.06 has been edited, replacing the references to Title 17 as well as updating the code.
Fiscal Impact:
There is no fiscal impact associated with this ordinance update.
