A. The control, including elimination, of cross-connections for all new and existing water service customers shall be in accordance with this section and the city of Lynnwood’s cross-connection control operating policies attached to the ordinance codified in this section and incorporated by reference herein, with subsequent revisions as periodically approved by the public works director. In addition, applicable regulations of the Department of Health stated in the State of Washington Administrative Code (WAC 246-290-490) or subsequent revisions shall be complied with. Where, in a specific case, different materials, methods or other requirements apply, the more restrictive shall govern. Where there is a conflict between a general requirement and a specific requirement, the specific requirement shall govern.

B. Service from the city’s water supply system to any premises upon which a private water supply system is used or operated contrary to the provisions of this chapter may be discontinued or refused.

C. Furnishing of service shall be contingent upon the customer furnishing a type of connection approved by the appropriate health authority and the director of public works for protecting the city supply from backflow. A cross-connection control permit is required to install such devices. The cross-connection control permit shall be submitted to the department of public works for processing as required by LMC 2.44.040.
