FATS, OILS AND GREASE (FOG)

Sewer System – Fats, Oils and Grease (FOG)Shannon Whitehead2020-12-01T22:22:56-07:00

Cooking grease is one of the primary causes of business and residential sewer line blockages that often result in sanitary sewer overflows (SSOs) from manholes or backups.

In addition to being extremely costly to clean up, the overflows create a potential for property damage and can lead to significant environmental, health and safety risks.

The Water Authority routinely inspects Food Service Establishments (FSE) for compliance with the SUO and its FOG Policy.
