Legal Documents of Baxter

The superintendent shall inspect all properties served by the public water supply where cross-connections with the public water supply are deemed possible. The frequency of inspections and re-inspections based on potential health hazards involved shall be established by the superintendent in accordance with guidelines acceptable to the Tennessee Department of Health and Environment.

The superintendent or authorized representative shall have the right to enter at any reasonable time any property served by a connection to the Baxter Public Water System for the purpose of inspecting the piping system therein for cross-connections, auxiliary intakes, bypasses or interconnections. On request, the owner, lessee, or occupant of any property so served shall furnish any pertinent information regarding the piping system on such property. The refusal of such information or refusal of access, when requested, shall be deemed evidence of the presence of cross-connections. (2011 Code, § 18-305)
