"The cross connection control program in Illinois is implemented/coordinated by the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the Illinois Department of Public Health (DPH) and the Environmental Resources Training Center (ERTC). The Illinois EPA (pursuant to 35 Ill. Adm. Code Section 607.104 and 653.801, 653.802 and 653.803) requires that all community water supplies have a cross-connection control program. For the most part, the Illinois DPH deals with the plumbing aspects of the cross-connection control program. Under 77 Ill. Adm. Code 890, backflow prevention devices are regulated. Under 225 ILCS 320, Illinois Plumbing License Law is detailed."
