The City of Melbourne is committed to ensuring the water we deliver to your residence meets or exceeds all health standards. 

All public water systems are required to develop and implement a cross-connection control (CCC) program per the requirements contained in Florida Administrative Code (FAC) 62-555.360 section (2). The purpose is to protect water quality by preventing the backflow of water from a customer’s plumbing into the public water system.  

Backflow is the reversal of the flow of water created by a difference in water pressures that causes water to flow back into the distribution pipes of a potable water supply.
