Cross Connection Control Program

In order to protect our water supply from contaminants, the City of Fernley maintains a Cross Connection Control Program. This program includes compliance testing, enforcement of City Ordinance 2013-009 (PDF), and identification of connections that could be hazardous to our water system.
