Preface to the Seventh Edition
The first Water Rules and Regulations Handbook was adoptedand approved by the County Board on March 30, 1938, and the firstedition was published April 14, 1938. Since that time, theexpansion of Arlington County and the adoption of numerousresolutions by the County Board have brought about substantialchanges in how the County provides water and sewer services toits citizens. Revised editions of the Handbook have beenpublished periodically, and the sixth edition was published in1975.The seventh edition reflects the organizational changes thathave occurred in County departments since the last publication.In 1990, the functions of the Water-Sewer Division were dividedand assigned to the Department of Environmental Services and theDepartment of Public Works.
