CITY OF ARANSAS PASS
UTILITY SERVICE APPLICATION
1. PURPOSE. The Aransas Pass Water Department is responsible for protecting the drinking
water supply from contamination of pollution, which could result from improper plumbing practices. The
purpose of this service agreement is to notify each customer of the plumbing restrictions, which are in place to
provide this protection. The Water Department enforces these restrictions to ensure the public health and
welfare. Each customer must sign this agreement before the Aransas Pass Water Department will begin service.
In addition, when service to an existing connection has been suspended or terminated, the water system will not
re-establish service unless it has a signed copy of this agreement.
2. PLUMBING RESTRICTIONS. The following undesirable plumbing is prohibited by state
regulations.
A. No direct connection between the public drinking water supply and a potential source of
contamination is permitted. Potential sources of contamination shall be isolated from the public
water system by an air gap or an appropriate backflow prevention device.
B. No cross-connection between the public drinking water supply and a private water system is
permitted. These potential threats to the public drinking water supply shall be eliminated at the
service connection by the installation of an air-gap or a reduced pressure-zone backflow prevention
device.
C. No connection, which allows water to be returned to the public drinking water supply, is permitted.
D. No pipe or pipe fitting which contains more that 8.0% lead may be used for the installation or repair
of plumbing at any connection, which provides water for human use.
E. No solder or flux, which contains more than 0.2% lead, can be used for the installation or repair of
plumbing at any connection, which provides water for human use.
3. SERVICE AGREEMENT. The following are the terms of the service agreement between the Aransas
Pass Water Department (the Water System) and the customer signed below.
A. The Water System will maintain a copy of this agreement as long as the customer and/or the premises
are connected to the Water System.
B. The Customer shall allow his property to be inspected for the possible cross-connections and other
undesirable plumbing practices. These inspections shall be conducted by the Water System or its
designated agent prior to initiating service and periodically thereafter. The inspections shall be
conducted during the Water System’s normal business hours.
C. The Water System shall notify the customer in writing of any cross-connection or other undesirable
plumbing practice, which has been identified during the initial inspection or the periodic reinsertion.
D. The Customer shall immediately correct any undesirable plumbing practice on his premises.
E. The Customer shall, at his expense, properly install, test, and maintain any backflow prevention
device required by the Water System. Copies of all testing and maintenance records shall be provided
to Water System.
4. ENFORCEMENT. If the customer fails to comply with the terms of the service agreement, the Water
System shall, at its option, terminate service or properly install, test, and maintain an appropriate backflow
prevention device at the service connection. Any expense associated with the enforcement of the agreement shall
be billed to the customer.
