The Beatrice Water Department has been delivering safe, clean, high quality water to the citizens of Beatrice for nearly 125 years.
With your help, we will continue this tradition far into the future.
To help protect the health of our fellow citizens, the Beatrice Water Department has adopted a Cross Connection Control Program.
The Beatrice Water Department has been a leader in cross-connection control in Nebraska. Beatrice's system was requiring high hazard locations install backflow prevention devices before the State of Nebraska had regulations.
When the State of Nebraska adopted cross-connection regulations, our system was already in compliance. The Nebraska Department of Health does require each water system in the state to have such a program. This brochure is intended to help educate our customers on the potential for cross connections in our system.
With the cooperation of our customers, building inspectors, and water department employees, we can ensure safe water for us all.
