Residential Inspections<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The purpose of the\u00a0City of Fond du Lac’s\u00a0Cross Connection Control Program, as\u00a0defined in City Code \u00a7642.20 Cross Connection Control and Backflow Prevention, is to help eliminate possible\u00a0contamination of the public water distribution system. There are two required components of\u00a0the program; 1) Site Inspection, and 2) Compliance with State Plumbing Code SPS 382.41.<\/p>\n

Per Wisconsin Administrative Code Chapter NR 810.15, the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources requires a survey of every facility connected to the public water supply. Fond du Lac Waterworks has dedicated and trained city employees to conduct these surveys.<\/p>\n

As part of this program, an inspection of residential properties is to be completed.\u00a0 Inspectors will be reviewing your water system for connections that could possible contaminate the water distribution system.<\/p>\n

There are no fees for the inspection, however, any costs associated with the replacement or modification, installation and\/or testing of backflow prevention devices or assemblies are the responsibility of the property owner\/manager.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Property owners have the option of hiring a licensed plumber to conduct this inspection at the cost to the property owner, if they choose not to utilize a trained utility technician. Plumbers are required to use the utility’s Cross Connection-Clear Water Inspection Form\u00a0 \u00a0CC CW Inspection Form<\/a><\/p>\n
