Backflow Prevention Device Testing
Massachusetts' facilities with backflow prevention devices providing protection of potable
water supplies should confirm that all devices are permitted and tested annually by the water
supplier. The DEP has eliminated the annual compliance assurance fee for backflow prevention
devices, however local water suppliers may impose a charge for device testing. Additional
testing requirements, including shifting the annual test responsibility to the owner may be
imposed by the local water supplier.
