Check the local rule before treating this as a generic tester search
- Cadence: Annual testing for backflow prevention devices
- Due basis: Southlake says backflow prevention assemblies must be tested annually, and customers who receive a City letter can search VEPO records or use a registered tester.
- Notice or device clue: Look for the BPAT/tester registration context, Envirotrax record, service address, or assembly identifier.
- Submission: Southlake cross connection control page
- Acceptance rule: Report acceptance depends on the named portal and the utility-approved tester route; keep proof that the report was submitted.
- Cost signal: Private tester pricing is market-based, but Southlake publishes a VEPO per-device submission fee signal.
