Lets start with the Plumbing Code

Plumbing Code Book

Rationale:

Section 1.13.0 Depart Of Water Resources Section 1.13.1 was merely relocated

section number only, language is the same. A loss of redundant language stating “DWR – Department of Water Resources.”

Section 1.13.2 Application D.W.R. 1.13.2 Application – installation, construction,

alteration, or repair of recycled water systems for water closets, urinals, trap primers for floor drains, floor sinks and other allowed areas.

Enforcing Agency – State or local agency specified by applicable provisions of law.

Authority Cited – Water Code section 13557 References – Water Code Section 13553

Significant for Section 1.13.2 This added language is in correlation to

the new Chapter 16A for non-potable water reuse system.

Per The Building and Standards and HCD Department this Chapter will be evolving especially in the area of home reuse water systems.
