§ 8.32.010. Purposes.

Latest version.

The purpose of this chapter is to protect public health and safety and water quality by regulating the discharge of fats, oils, and grease (FOG) from food service establishments into the public sewer system. This chapter establishes standards for managing FOG and maintaining the systems conveying, collecting, and storing FOG waste products. The goals of this chapter are to:
1.

Protect the city's infrastructure from the damaging effects of FOG; and

2.

Prevent sanitary sewage overflows that subject the city to unsanitary wastewater exposure, which in turn increases the potential of disease transmission and increases the risk of water pollution.
