Compliance

Shoreline is served by Seattle Public Utilities, which requires annual backflow assembly testing by a certified BAT. Reports are submitted through SPU's SwiftComply online portal. SPU sends reminders, but the property owner is responsible for timely testing. Non-compliance can result in charges and potential water service termination. For full program details, visit the SPU backflow prevention page at seattle.gov. The City of Shoreline serves as the local plumbing authority.
