The Cross-Connection Control Specialist is needed by administrative authorities throughout North America to assure that Cross-Connection Control programs continue to protect the drinking water. The American Backflow Prevention Association (ABPA) Certification Committee completed the task of establishing criteria for what a Cross-Connection Control Specialist needs to know. Once a person has been trained, an examination protocol had to be developed to verify the applicant's knowledge that may be used to administer a Cross-Connection Control program in accordance with the need to know criteria.
