Businesses that pose a potential risk to the city water supply are required by both state and city rules to install backflow devices.

Certain properties and businesses in New York State are mandated by law to have backflow prevention devices installed, maintained, and annually tested.

These devices keep wastewater from high-occupancy residences and businesses from flowing into the drinking water supply. They prevent chemical and biological contamination of public water.
