Can a 13D system be connected to the irrigation supply in lieu of the 
traditional U.G. arrangement of connecting at the domestic water meter ? I have 
an unsprinkled house that I am being asked to sprinkle in the same manner as 
the other sprinkled houses in the subdivision; these houses are not connected 
to the U.G. at the water meter but are rather connected to a curb stop that is 
reserved for irrigation water. The irrigation main does not tie-back into the 
city water main so I have no way to gauge the water supply by flowing and 
testing a hydrant. (These are single family residence houses, not townhomes....)

Is this even allowed ? I cannot find anything alluding to this and the AHJ has 
never heard of anyone doing this before. I think the rationale behind doing 
this was that it did not conflict with the potable water supply and was 
considered to be "free" water.

Can anyone shed any light on this and if so, what are the requirements and 
where can they be found in 13D ?
