Fort Lauderdale & Broward County Consumer & Compliance Alert (Verified 2026-10-29)

FORT LAUDERDALE TIP: Residential irrigation backflow assemblies only need testing every two years, but RP assemblies on risky domestic services are annual. Make sure your tester is approved by the City and files the result in BSI Online, because missed tests can lead to water shutoff.

Filing Portal & Fee BSI Online (Backflow Solutions Inc.)
The City contracts with Backflow Solutions Inc. (BSI) to manage test records. The City's page does not publish a filing fee; ask your tester whether a fee is included in the quote.
Tester Registry View Official Municipal Tester List ↗
Annual Deadline Rule Reduced-pressure (RP) assemblies on domestic services judged a contamination risk must be tested annually, at residential and commercial properties alike. Irrigation meters need a PVB or RP assembly: commercial irrigation assemblies are tested annually and residential irrigation assemblies every two years. Domestic and irrigation tests must be done by a TREEO/ASSE-certified tester approved by the Public Works Director, and fire-line assemblies by a licensed fire inspection company certified for backflow. Testers submit results through BSI Online, and BSI sends customers reminders when a test is due. Installing an assembly requires a plumbing permit.
Non-Compliance Penalty Under the City's backflow program, water service is terminated for properties that do not comply with testing requirements.

City of Fort Lauderdale Public Works — Wastewater Pretreatment / FOG Local Limits Rules

Official Program Fort Lauderdale Code Sec. 28-207 Local Limits (Ordinance C-08-26) & Florida Statute 403.0741 Grease Waste Manifests ↗
Mandatory Pumping Schedule Fort Lauderdale Code Sec. 28-207 (Ordinance C-08-26) sets local sewer discharge limits of 100 mg/L nonpolar oil and grease, 400 mg/L polar oil and grease, 400 mg/L BOD, and 400 mg/L TSS. The City's official sources do not publish a fixed pump-out interval, so keep your grease trap or interceptor cleaned often enough to stay under these limits, and ask your hauler and the City what schedule your facility needs.
Manifest & Hauler Rule Florida Statute 403.0741 requires a signed service manifest for every grease pump-out. It records the originator, hauler, and disposal facility, the trap's condition, confirmation that it was fully cleaned, and the amounts removed and disposed. The hauler must give copies to the originator, the county, and the municipality within 30 days of disposal, and both keep copies for 1 year. Returning grease waste or graywater to the trap is prohibited.
Violation Fines City enforcement for exceeding Sec. 28-207 local limits, plus Florida Statute 403.0741 penalties for manifest and disposal violations.

How often is backflow testing required in Fort Lauderdale?

RP assemblies on domestic services judged a contamination risk are tested annually. Commercial irrigation assemblies are tested annually, and residential irrigation assemblies every two years.

What happens if I ignore a Fort Lauderdale backflow notice?

The City's backflow program states that water service will be terminated for properties that don't comply. Schedule a test with a City-approved TREEO/ASSE-certified tester (or a certified fire inspection company for fire lines) before the due date.
