Abstract
Plumbing cross-connections, which connect potable water supply with nonpotable supply, are a public health problem. There are numerous and well-documented cases where such connections have been responsible for contaminated drinking water, and have resulted in spread of disease. The problem is a dynamic one, because piping systems are continually being installed, altered, or extended. Control of cross-connections is possible, but only through knowledge and vigilance. The manual has been designed as a tool for health officials, waterworks personnel, plumbers, and many others; it is intended to be used in educational, administrative, and technical ways in conducting cross-connection control programs.
