Why is backflow testing required?

The United States Department of Environmental Protection, adopted the Safe Drinking Water Act in 1974 (revised it in 1986 and 1996) Public Law 99-339 to prevent the pollution or contamination of water supplies.

Why does the Backflow Assembly need to be tested annually?

The Georgia Rules for Safe Drinking Water Chapter 391-3-5-.13 pass the responsiblity of enforcing cross-connection control regulations to local water providers.  These laws require local municipalities to maintain annual inspections of backflow assemblies to prevent any contamination to the public water supply.
