Oklahoma City operates both surface water treatment from Lake Hefner and Lake Overholser plus groundwater wells from the Garber-Wellington aquifer. Your facility may receive blended supply that varies in pressure and chemistry throughout the year. During summer peak demand, the city activates supplemental wells that alter system pressure and increase backpressure risk at your backflow assemblies. Properties in south Oklahoma City near the Canadian River rely more heavily on groundwater sources that create different hydraulic conditions than surface water zones. This supply complexity makes annual backflow compliance testing essential for verifying your assemblies protect against contamination under all operating scenarios.
