Why does Denver Water have an Operating Rule on Cross Connections and backflow devices?
Two reasons, the Colorado State Health Department requires that all purveyors of treated water have a cross connection policy, and Denver Water allows no commingling of its water. Should commingling occur, the water is isolated from the water system. Denver Water’s cross connection rule and policy is detailed in Chapter 11 of the Denver Board of Water Commissioners Operating Rules.
