Cross connection present or not corrected (corrected on site)

Inspector notes: Observed sprayer nozzle not currently in use attached directly to a hose which was attached to the faucet with an Atmospheric Vacuum Breaker (AVB) at the mop sink. PIC disconnected the hose from the faucet at time of inspection. Shut-offs, including chemical dispensers and sprayer nozzles, are not approved for continuous installation downstream from atmospheric vacuum breakers. Non-testable Anti-siphon Vacuum Breaker devices are designed to protect potable water supplies from the back siphonage of non-health hazard cross-connections and low flow, non-continuous pressure installations. Discussed removing the hose from the faucet when it is not in use to ensure it does not create pressure on the AVB
