Received a Backflow Testing Notice from the City of Goose Creek? Don’t Risk Non-Compliance!
If you’ve received a backflow prevention testing notice from the City of Goose Creek—like the one seen here—it’s time to take action. The notice reminds property owners that their backflow devices must be tested annually by a SCDHEC-certified tester. In South Carolina, this isn’t just a suggestion—it’s a requirement! The Cross-Connection Control And Backflow Prevention Program Manual in Goose Creek requires residents to who have Reduced Pressure Assemblies, Double Check Valve Assemblies, and Pressure Vacuum Breaker Assemblies to test their assemblies “by a certified tester immediately after installation and a minimum of once each subsequent year.” In other words, you must get your assembly tested once a year.
Failure to comply can have serious consequences. As the City of Goose Creek warns, non-compliance may lead to interruption of your water service until the testing is completed. This could disrupt your daily life or business operations, not to mention the potential health risks of untested backflow devices allowing contaminants into the potable water supply.
