Fats, Oils and Grease (FOG) Program
Fats, Oils & Grease (FOG) Program
FOG = Fats, Oils, & Grease
This applies to any combination of animal fats and/or vegetable oils that are
used
to prepare food, or are found in food.
Click here for a plumbing permit application for the installation of a grease interceptor.
The FOG Problem:
When discharged into sanitary sewer lines, FOG accumulates and sticks to pipe walls causing clogs in the sanitary sewer system
A significant source of FOG are Food Establishments (FEs), where cooking oil and residual food grease from dishes is improperly disposed of in drains.
