               wells for non-potable uses. There must be no cross-connection between well water and
               the public water system. Users have to be disconnected from private wells before joining
               the public water system.

               of accidents or for the purpose of making repairs or in case of construction, the
               superintendent will endeavor to give timely notice to the consumer affected, and will,
               as far as practical, use its best efforts to prevent inconvenience and damage arising
               from any such causes, but failure to give such notice will not render the county responsible
               or liable for damages that may result, or from any other cause.
