The City of Leavenworth has partnered with BSI Online to assist with state-required cross-connection/backflow tracking regulations.
As required by the State’s Environmental Protection Agency and the Department of Public Health, every drinking water system must have a cross-connection control program, more commonly known as a backflow prevention program. Backflow prevention is designed to protect the public water supply from contamination from non-drinkable sources.
BSI will support the program by sending notifications, assisting with customer service inquiries, and managing required data on behalf of the City.
NOTE: As part of this change, backflow testers are now required to pay a $10 reporting fee when submitting test results to the City. This fee helps cover the cost of the software platform used by both testers and the City to manage and monitor the program. Many testers are passing this fee along to their customers, which may appear as a “filing fee” or similar line item on your invoice.
