Section § 8118
Cemeteries using disinfected tertiary treated recycled water that have hose bibs accessible to the public must put up signs indicating the water is not safe to drink. These signs need to be checked regularly by the water provider to ensure they are visible and provide the correct information to the public.
A cemetery supplied with disinfected tertiary treated recycled water that installs a hose bib in an area subject to access by the general public shall post signage and labeling visible to the general public that the water is nonpotable. The signage and labeling shall be regularly inspected by the water purveyor, as defined in Section 512 of the Water Code, to ensure that the general public has proper notice of this fact.
