Filing a backflow test report to the City of Delta
Where it goes
Reports must be submitted through BSI Online. Paper is explicitly refused.
How often, and by when
Annually, or immediately after alteration. Not stated in the bylaw — confirm with the authority. We would rather tell you we did not find one than invent a number you might plan around.
Whatever the deadline, the report only stands if your test kit was in calibration on the day. Most programmes require it every twelve months, and a lapsed kit does not slow you down — it stops you filing at all. We will email you before yours lapses, free.
Worth knowing
The City’s own PDF form is out of date and still says to email Engineering. The live page overrides it — where a form and a page disagree, the page wins.
Can we file it for you?
No. Delta mandates BSI Online, so we cannot file here on your behalf.
Not a tester? If you own or manage the building and a notice arrived, here is what it means and what you have to do.
When we checked
Checked 20-Sep-2026, against Delta's own bylaw, tester sheet or test report form. These change. If this is wrong, tell us and we will fix it the same day — help@backflowfiled.com. We would rather be corrected than be confidently out of date.
We make software that fills in the authority's own form and keeps the record — what that looks like. This page is here whether or not that is of any use to you. All 46 BC authorities →
Status: Requires a vendor portal.
