Cbemigation syste.. connected to public water systems must contain a functional 
reduced-pressure zone, backflow preventer (RPZ) or tbe functional equivalent 
in the water supply line upstream from tbe point of pesticide introduction. As 
an option to tbe RPZ, the water from the pu~lic ~ater system should be discharged 
into a reservior tank prior to pesticide intrcduction. There sball be a complete 
pbysical break (air gap) between tbe outlet end of tbe fill pipe and tbe top or
