[Amended 10-3-1994 by L.L. No. 2-1994]
No water service connection to any premises shall be installed or maintained by the water purveyor, unless the water supply is protected as required by the New York State Health Department regulations.
Service of water to any premises may be discontinued by the water purveyor if a backflow preventive device required by this chapter is not installed, tested and maintained, if any defect is found in an installed backflow preventive device, if it is found that a backflow preventive device has been removed or bypassed or if unprotected cross-connections exist on the premises, and service will not be restored until such conditions or defects are corrected.
Article II shall not be retroactive. Placement of check assemblies referred to in Article II, § 138-5G, shall be handled as necessary and with the installation of any new or replacement meter.
