Procedure for Connecting Temporary Water Supply Connections

1.  Only PVC water lines and fittings are allowed.  All lines must be used for potable water only.  It is prohibited to use lines for conveying potable water that have previously been used for other purposes.

2.  Prior to connecting to the potable water system, all lines must be flushed and super chlorinated with a solution of 100 ppm chlorine.

3.  After flushing with chlorine, all lines must be flushed with potable water.

4.  During hook up, all connections and fittings must be dipped in a solution of 100 ppm chlorine prior to connecting.  Only food grade lubricant is allowed when connecting lines.  All connections to standpipes or any other source of potable water must be equipped with a backflow prevention device to protect the integrity of the water source at all times.

5.  During the event, water lines are not allowed to come into contact with standing water or other potential sources of contamination.

6.  After the event has ended, all lines must once again be flushed with a chlorine solution of 100 ppm chlorine to reduce the chance of mould growth in the lines during storage.
